Should I Buy It?
If you're in need of a reliable, powerful, and durable chainsaw, look no further. This chainsaw will do the trick, provided you're comfortable with the slightly heavier weight and potential learning adjustment period. This chainsaw seems to be an excellent investment for both professional and non-professional use.
Great Saw! STARTS EASY! RIPS GOOD! I like this thing, although I'm only about 4-5 tankfuls of gas into run-time I am impressed. It's fairly heavy, but that's standard with a larger chainsaw. There is ample power. And even "big" logs like 18" diameter live Oak, this saw buzzed right through. I pretty much had no problem ripping through any length up to the full 20" bar length. I have to mention a few of the gripes of other reviewers which I think are unfounded. Feel free to skip this part as it's not directly related to the chainsaw or you just don't want to hear the b*tching. To the person that said the saw comes with a "SAFETY CHAIN". I award you no points and may god have mercy on your soul. What in the f is a "safety chain"? Is that the one that doesn't cut you really bad if it makes contact with your skin??? There is no such thing as a safety chain.... something like this should not have to be explained. For the record, the chain the saw comes with cuts absolutely great and is not a so called "safety chain" to the best of my knowledge. To the person that said this saw is hard to start. You either got a defective saw or you really have no idea how to start a chainsaw. This saw starts very easily right out of the box. I found the starting instructions superfluous. Because every time I've started this saw I've simply done it through intuition and it started almost immediately or with some quick adjustments. So OVERALL I really like this saw, it seems capable of handling almost anything I will need to cut. It has good power and it cuts really fast. Everything on the saw seems to function as it should, the oiler at the medium setting seems perfect, the chain tensioner is easy to use and works good. The chain brake works as it should, I hit it with my hand or something and it engaged at one point locking the chain in place. I simply unlocked it and it continued cutting. I of course accidentally dipped the bar into some mud and it bound the chain. I took the cover off and simply cleaned out the mud then I spun the chain a few times and the saw was good to go. Easy and efficient to remove cover and remove clogged wood chips etc. Oiler never stopped working, chain tensioner also never stopped working. Engine is easy to start and I've had no issues to report in about the first 5 hrs of run time. It's about average on fuel efficiency expect something like an hour (if cutting the whole time) for a full tank of fuel. I like Husqvarna in general and I like this saw, I hope it holds up well over time. If I can I will update this review in a couple years or so. Thanks for reading, leave me a comment below and I will reply if I can. THIS SAW IS LOUD YOU WILL PROBABLY NEED OR WANT HEARING PROTECTION

This is not a top end saw however it performs very well. Out of the box I put fuel and bar oil in it and ran it. Other than adjusting the chain tension (expect this with a new chain) didnt have a single hiccup. Good power for general use...again, this is not a top end professional saw but for half the price of the Stihl I was looking at I figured Id give it a try. Not disappointed so far. Well see how it handles being beat on over the next few months. UPDATE: 9/10/17: About 6 tanks of fuel through this saw on two separate cutting sessions. No issues. Absolutely had a go of it taking down some 6-24 inch trees in the yard today. Pinched the bar/chain a few times working too fast, cut up a huge 4-5 ft diameter stump...basically beat the heck out of it and it kept asking for more. The only time it got a break was for more fuel and bar oil. Did buy the Husqvarna sharping kit with the little jig that fits over the chain while on the bar...nice. Took 15 mins and sharpened the stock chain and it bites beautifully...nice big chips. Very pleased with this saw so far. I will be looking into other Husqvarna machines because of this. Definitely likes to work. The 20 in bar is a bit much however its nice to have for that bigger tree or stump work. No regrets over not going with a Stihl so far. If I kill it Ill post again...not sure thats going to happen though. UPDATE 10/28/17: I have continued to show this saw no quarter. Guys who run saws all day would probably slap me if they saw the abuse I've put this thing through. It continues to work without complaint cutting Vermont hardwood. I do notice that the Husqvarna bars seem to get beat up a bit more than Stihl? I do use the Stihl pre mix fuel as I've noticed some machines are real sensitive when just a little off mixing your own. This saw is a beast. It retrospect I probably would have gone for a 16 or 18 inch bar. Just dont need the 20 and I feel the extra length robs power at times and just gets in the way...It is nice to have for stumps however. UPDATE 9/25/18: No problems to date. Original chain is almost done and Ill probably just buy another OEM to replace for this fall. I blow out the filter and under the main side housing after every serious use. OEM Spark plug is still very clean using quality pre mixed fuel. I've let a few trusted people borrow it and they come to the same conclusion; a little heavy, but overall one of the better saws they have ever used. UPDATE 12/2023: Many chains later and a few plugs/filter this saw has been great. Best saw (as a homeowner) I’ve used. Highly recommend.
