Wonderful Saw- For the Money
I picked up this saw about 3 years ago and have used the heck out of it. I cut about 4 cords a year and it has worked very well. But let's face it, this is NOT a professional saw and anyone expecting it work like one is unrealistic. But if you do a couple of things it cuts very well and is quite reliable. 1. Keep a sharp chain on it. For whatever reason the chain this saw uses dulls pretty quick. I personally keep 3 chains and have a sharpener. 2. Keep your bar oil topped off. If you run out you toast your chain and bar. 3. Keep the roller tip lubed. 4. Clean the air cleaner- it collects a lot of junk where it sits. 5. Optional- go to a 16" bar and chain. The saw is better suited, power wise, for the 16" setup. I felt the 18" bar was pretty flimsey. So basically there aren't any real earth shattering suggestions here- JUST MAINTAIN YOUR SAW. It will cut very well for the average homeowner for a long time.

Disappointed
The engine was hard to start and once start it was stop running after a sshort run. I used the new gas and mixed 40:1 properly. I returned the product and found out they only exchanged the products. They gave me replacement with no problem but they will not give me refund. I exchanged twice.

The best I've ever used.

Easy starts, quick cuts. Very easy to control. I have owned several brands of chainsaws over the years. This is the best by far. I would recommend this saw to anyone who needs a light to medium duty chainsaw.

I would recommend this product to a friend.

Homeowner chainsaw

I bought this saw on clearance and out of the box it didn't run right. After I got it back from Sears service it runs good.( non adjustable air screws on carb. Thank the EPA.) I bought the saw to use occasionally, and should work fine for that. I'll break out the big Stihls to do the heavy lifting. Don't care for the on/off & choke controls- I hope they don't break. I don't like the simpul (spring loaded starting rope) I'll get used to it.

I would recommend this product to a friend.

Storm clean-up

A nice chainsaw for the money. I used it for 2 days straight without any problems. It made nice quick clean cuts. I cut a 20" dia. tree (w/18" bar) without much difficulty. With regular maintenance this saw should last a long time. Love my new saw.

I would recommend this product to a friend.

Impressed

I was a little hesatent to buy this saw due to price with all the extras. To my relief when I got it home and filled with gas and oil, 3 pulls and it was running. The auto hi idle to warm saw was great. Other than the length of cut, it is almost as good as my 20 McCloughic, I would recomed this saw to any one looking for a home use saw. It passes all my expectations. I would recommend it to any of my friends, just hope it lasts.

I would recommend this product to a friend.
