I have had Huskvarna's for a while. I have a dealer I like that also sells Echo.. but I don't know.. :thinking: I like my Echo leaf blower.. but I don't think of them.. when I think of good saws... :thinking:

same here... O know stihls are pretty good saws.. I had my grubby paws on a jonserud turbo pro a few years ago, that thing was a cutting animal and would love to own it.. I grew up with a jonserud and they are rugged and deependable.. i currently have a poulan/craftsman cheepie.. it works but its no stihl...

My Dad used Jonsered saws..

The 3 real saws I think of are Husky.. Shihl and Jonsered..

My most recent Husky 350.. has a reputation for loosing muffler bolts.. which is a pain..
