My 372,390 ,and 044 are. The 346 ,and 562 will be following shortly .

so i would venture to say that you are very happy with both your 346xp and 562xp?

You betcha ! The 346 is the OE version and has been very reliable . The 562 is pretty darned amazing for a stock 60 cc saw . I just put a 20" tech lite bar on it so it is even lighter than with the stock bar .

I tested a 562 XP out a few weeks ago, that is one nice saw, I will be adding one to my collection at some point, I think a 346 XP and a 562 XP will be all the saw's most people will ever need.

Had mine about 7 months now. I gave the 359 to my brother and will likely sell the 365/75cc.

346xp / 562xp are the two that'll see the most use around here.

I'll keep the 357xp, because it's just a great saw!

I think I may have already asked you, but how does the 562xp (stock) compair to some other saws that I am more familiar with. Like a 6400? or a 441, or a 120si, 365, 266se?? Any cut times? 4 of those saws I listed I own or have owned. The 6400, 365, 120si, and 266se all that I have owned were all pretty close. Within half a second or so on a 10 second cut. More to do with operator than saw IMO. Hows the 562xp stack up?? More grunt than any of them mentioned? Or about the same just newer and lighter:thumbsup:
