String trimmer which accepts expand-it attachments.

I am looking for a new string trimmer, split shaft, which will accept the expand-it attachments. I have about 3 or 4 of those attachments.

I was really hoping to get an Echo, or Stihl, or that Hitachi which has good reviews but none of them seem to accept the expand-it attachments, although the Echo PAS at HD didn't seem too different from the Ryobi attachments they had laying around.

I am curious to try the 4-stroke trimmers, mainly hoping for more power and less vibration, but I've read conflicting reviews regarding them. I don't care about the oil mixing part. But really what I want is a trimmer which won't stall easily when using a brush cutter or going through tall grass. I have a 3 1/2 acre lot, but I won't be weed whacking around the whole lot, just near the house and a few other places.
