It all depends on what you expect of it... Last year I bought a Husky 445, I paid right around $300, its also an 18" and it ROCKS. Prior to getting it the best saw I'd ever used was an '80s vintage Echo 510EVL which is a good saw but the Husky is better, low weight and vibration, good power, good balance, great saw, I'd buy another.
So you're asking about a saw with the same size bar for half the money... -Curt Date: Thu, 15 Oct 2009 19:19:47 -0500 From: OK Don <okd...@gmail.com> Subject: [MBZ] OT - chain saws To: Mercedes Discussion List <Mercedes@okiebenz.com> Message-ID: <437bc980910151719p6bf1220aqde65bf66cb7fc...@mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Is the Poulan Pro 18" chain saw a decent tool? On 'sale' locally for $150. It would be for occaisonal use - to supplement the 10" electric trimming saw I currently use, and that I don't think will be up to felling the 16" diameter dead pine tree in the front yard. -- OK Don CONSERVATIVE, n.
