About what? I said I never herd of that saw before. The only saw I use is a Husky 550 with 20" bar it gets it done.

You didnt quote anyone. So what saw havent you heard of??

The post immediately before yours mentioned Poulan, McCullough, and Homelite
The one before that mentioned husqvarna and dolmar
the one before that stihl

Echo, partner, shindaiwa, craftsman, jonsered, makita, and timber pro have all been mentioned in this thread.

Then theres your post. From out of seemingly no where...."never heard of that brand before"

So like I asked and will ask again. Care to be a bit more specific?

Not if that saw is a piece of junk. Makes me wonder about that Stihl that's now on sale: If it's so good how come they have to put it on sale to get rid of 'em?:confused3:

Great bang for your buck saw

X2 Nice saws with 3/8" chain. Echos are reliable from everything I heard.
