overall i have been pleased with the performance. starting is good but can be stubborn if starting half-cold. I have managed to break the anti-vibrartion spring on the handle and the rubber seal on the fuel cap is perished and needs replacing. the plastic casing seems to be standing up ok - but there could have been a stronger front to avoid wear where the saw meets the log. I find it awkward when used to cut horizontally because the anti-vib spring prevents you applying pressure to the lower half of the handle. good value for the money and ok for the d.i.y. forester.

I have owned this saw for about a year and it has performed very well. I have replaced the original chain with a sthil chain which greatly improved its cutting performance.

I bought this to cut up a large silver birch tree in the garden and, four hours later, everything was down to the right kind of size for the garden.
Would I buy this model again? Certainly, it does everything that I could reasonably want to do.
I would re-iterate buying some more chainsaw oil before you start using it, as it would a a real shame to have to stop after only 30 minutes. The chainsaw oil is really cheap (I paid only 2.88 in a local hardware shop for 1 litre).
Seems to do everything it is supposed to do.
Obvious word of warning - chainsaws are brutal tools and you really do need to know what you are doing to use any chainsaw safely.
Great value for money June 7, 2006

Bought this in 2005 as my first chainsaw. I have used it many times to cut 100's of logs from tree trunks up to 14" diameter. Doesn't use much oil, reliable, powerful (even on a 50m extension cable), comfortable, lightweight easy to use. Have only resharpened the chain once in this period. Buy it if petrol chainsaws scare you!
