I bought a Husqvarna 450 after we had that last discussion about chainsaws a few years ago. Other than the coil module dying two years ago, it starts the first time everytime. I mix the gas myself using no-alcohol unleaded and the Husqvarna oil and store it in an old metal one gallon can.
I got tired of the big box saws that died an early death and the Worx plug-in electric saws (burned up two of them, one under warranty Lowes replaced it with no questions asked).
