Efco chainsaws?

[stevem5215]

I have an EFCO branded as Cub Cadet. Bought it about 7 or 8 years ago. It just keeps working. I've cut quite a bit with it. It's the 5720 model (57cc's 20" bar). EFCO is the largest brand in the EU that sells saws. Not as popular in the states but I do have to say I like using this one. It's made of metal instead of the plastic we see on a lot of saws here in the USA. Just used it the other day for a tree that fell. Worked the same as usual.

Built good. These are 152 and 156

Parts are like stihl parts = very pricey.
Plus hard to get but can be ordered online and shipped to you at least IF you find the part.

I like how their homeowner grade are built better then the top 2 clamshell designs.

Pro grade seem on par. Old school and little under powered.

If you can buy them right price only way I would do it. I couldnt move the ones I had till I about gave them away.


One apart is their homeowner style.

Anybody running one? I have never heard of them.

Decent priced but don't anything about them to see if worth it

Had them for years. An EFCO is not safe in any pawn shop if I happen to go in there. Excellent saws. Not echo, they are EFCO.
