I have a pouland, and apart from a number of problems at first caused by my own
inexperience, I have had a lot of joy from it.
I would say that you are just begging for accidents if you use a saw that,
because of its size and weight, you cannot handle: vis a vis: control easily!
The only very small accident I have had was caused by someone else to whom I
had lent my saw burning the clutch out and failing to tell me that they had
done so.
The next time that I used the saw, when I released the throttle, I expected the
chain to stop moving, and I reached across it to get at something on the far
side and the still-whirling chain caught my wrist. Fortunately, it was only a
glancing blow!

Those are good saws. I didn't have a Stiehl but that's the brand that got my
finger... I know any time one came in the shop the owner never had a bad thing
to say about Stiehl. Now Homelite or McCullich or Pouland were different
stories...

Go for it...
I was the proud owner of a 24" Stihl for many years and it did everything I
needed it to.

Almost always when I talk about chain saws sighted people around me kind of
friek out. They do the same when I talk about my table saw. I was at a
family Christmas party this week end and I started talking about the fact
that I have a table saw and a miter saw but I really would like to get a
circ saw. When they started going off about how that idea kind of bothered
them I finally stood my groung and smiled and said get over it. Now about
chain saws. I do not have a chain saw and I get the same story when I talk
about getting one. Every time I hear that I should not have a chain saw that
puts me that much closer to getting one.I think I am not alone in saying
that If you really want me to figure out some way to do some thing, Just
keep telling me I can't do it because "after all your blind you know."
