I was looking at new saws a little over a year ago after I gave my uncle my Stihl 025. I wanted a smaller saw to go along with my MS261 and MS361. When I saw the MS241 in my local hardware store I did not even know they existed. As soon as I picked it up and held it, I was off to the cashier to buy it. I bought it to use around the house for small limbing jobs. A couple of days went buy and my Dad called and wanted to go get some firewood down at my friends house where I cut firewood. There was a nice size hickory tree that had fell down that was easy to get to without the tractor. I fired it up and started cutting at the top of it. Before I knew it I chewed through half of that tree in 10 minutes. That little saw is a monster. Made my 025 seem like a toy. Since then my little 241 goes everywhere I go when I am doing any kind of tree work. I would say since I have bought it I use it 70% of the time now for most of my cutting needs.
It was expensive ($ 540.00) but worth every penny. Has not given me one bit of trouble. It was a little hard to start the first couple of times but once I broke it in real good it now fires right up. I highly recommend this saw for anyone who cuts a lot wood for burning. It has been a great investment for me and it is very light but loaded with unending power. Definitely a nice compliment to my MS361 (another great saw).
