  • EASY START, good balance, pulls strongly, cuts like a demon, GOOD RELIABILITY AFTER 1 YEAR OPERATION
Size: 12 Inch
This saw replaces an Echo 330 which performed the amazing trick of being too large to be a small saw, too small to be a large saw. It got impossible to start , even with a new carburetor. When I looked into repairing it, (Possible partial piston seizure) the parts were CRAZY EXPENSIVE. I own larger Husqvarna saws, and have extensive experience repairing and maintaining them, ( and loved their amazing rugged reliability)and the Echo situation was VERY ANNOYING, given the rugged reliability the Huskys have given me over the years. To make a long story short I ditched the Echo and decided to try the Neotec, because I was NOT ABOUT TO BUY ANOTHER CRAZY EXPENSIVE ECHO SAW, only to have it flunk, and there was no Husqvarna flat saw available. (I will gladly pay extra for the extreme reliability of the Huskys,) I received the NEOTEC, put it together paying attention to the 25:1 Hi/test fuel/oil mix they recommend- I mixed it a little richer even than that for break-in, added the chain oil, choked it, primed it, cranked three times (it popped on the second pull), took the choke off, cranked once more and it was running. (Pro tip- if you use two of the 2.6 oz containers you normally add to a 1 gal container for a 50:1 mix, you get a 25:1 mix) It was cold and slow to rev, but after a warmup, it revved and ran strongly. I tested it cutting small diameter waste oak up to 3". It pulled strongly, never slowing down. The engine revs a little higher before clutch engagement than the Huskys. It has good one-handed balance, noise level was OK, vibration level was low. It oils the chain very heavily (I prefer a heavy oiling saw-it keeps your chains and bars healthy) . Hot restarts were a 1-pull affair. I am looking forward to a limbing job soon- If the saw exhibits reliability commensurate with its performance, we have a winner! The minimalist instruction pamphlet included also provided information on carb needle jet initial settings, maybe not needed, but welcomed by a guy who works on his equipment. So- for the price point- this saw looks good, good, good. Follow up: After several days use and many starts, I had to lay it up for a couple of days, then it was back to work- I took the saw down off the shelf, pumped the bulb, pulled the choke up, pulled the string and on the second pull it cranked off while choked- I pushed the choke knob down, opened the throttle and cleared the saw- then off to work- Easy. Peasy. Much easier even than pulling an extension cord out for an electric small saw. I bought three Neo-Tec saw chains, also very inexpensive. They are a 92 chain low profile- I have a chain grinder and keep my chains sharp and rakers low, but the inexpensive chains means that the homeowner with only a file can afford to keep sharp new chains on hand, and keep his job going without fighting dull blade- again- good, good, good. If the saw gives the durability I need, its a winner! 5/16/2024- high winds came through the Houston area- I lost a mature oak with a rotten heart- blew the top out, along with many smaller branches and debris down on my homestead- I HAD BOUGHT ANOTHER IDENTICAL SAW, I LIKED THE FIRST ONE SO WELL,- I put them both to work- in four hours and about 25 cartloads later, we were done. The second one runs strongly, but needs some fine tuning to start as easily as the first one when hot, but I am sure it will tune up easily. There were no malfunctions, both were super easy start when cold- the light weight and good balance along with the good power of the saws made it a real time and effort saver- I didn't have to start my Husqvarna 445 or 460- so- again- a real nice saw for the money- and a great addition for the homeowner needing a handy saw with good capabilities! 6-8-2024 Large Pine tree (>120 feet) fell on the back of my property, we have had over 50" rain this year; and the mud goes down 4 feet. The falling pine took out the corner of the garden, put debris in the pool, and left a mess. I cut it up mostly with this 12" for limbing the top, then cut the bole up with the 460 husky. When I got down to about 20 feet left, I left the bole and root ball intact. A couple of days later I cleaned off about 1 1/2 cy of dirt off the root ball, and was able to roll and pull the root ball out of the hole with my tractor. I put the 24" bar on the 460 and removed the rest of the bole and the long taproot. I backfilled the hole and was able to turn the stump upright, and attempted a burn using a steel heat cap and forcing air with a shop vac. No joy, it was just too green. So I was forced to return to cutting back the root and removing dirt- the 12" Neo tech really shined in this work, removing gnarled roots in muddy dirt was a snap- plus the NeoTech blade must have hardened cutters- usually when I hit a dirt pocket, the husky chains dull immediately- but the Neotech blade stayed sharp! Anyway, when the weight got under 1000#, I hooked up with the front end loader, lifted and hauled the stump. Next day I remediated the area, and the stump will be burned in a couple of weeks- anyway- the small Neotec saw really shined in this work, save my energy and made the job MUCH MUCH easier! I like these small saws!!!! Plus they start easy peasy! 6/19/2024 Burned out two more stumps- used the NeoTecs to trim the edges of the stump,down in the dirt again. They make it much easier to do close -in work- I also think the NeoTec folks are providing hardened cutters on the chains- when I hit a sand pocket with the Husqvarna saw chains, they instantly dull. The Neotecs remain sharp longer- I really think the NeoTecs are made for folks with grinders; the Husky saws cutters are soft to make them easier to maintain by those using files to sharpen. Anyway the harder cutters stay on the job better- I am curious how they will behave when I grind- but so far, so good, good, good. My next purchase will be one for my brother for a birthday present- he is getting along with a heavy old McCullough commercial saw that must be 40 years old. He will think he has gone to heaven. 8/01/2024 OK- the brother finally got his saw- he lives so far back in the East Texas Boonies that Amazon couldn't find him- but its working now- HE LIKE! 8/11/2024 -Using the saws for elevated work-Again- enjoyed easy start after laying up for several weeks- just fill the tank-pump- choke- pull once- unchoke- pull once and enjoy the sound of a running saw- the easy start and light weight and adequate power make de-limbing much SAFER and easier. When I climb, I don't really want a saw that is overpowered- I like it light and controllable, and easy to operate,- plus these saws have a loop for pulling up after you are in place and tied off, and you can clip your saw lanyard to - and anything you can do to to make the job easier is a plus when you are at height. Took off a large hang down that Hurricane Beryl left me - along with its branch at the tree- about 8" diameter- the branch was positioned so that I had to use the saw one handed- no problem with this light saw, but impossible with my other heavy two handed saws- down came the branch- then the long pickup in the heat- success- what can I say- I remain impressed with the saws- 4-2-2025 Used for removing a 10" trunk crepe myrtle over my patio- worked like a champ in the close quarters available, and was especially useful working on a ladder having to tether the saw and pull it up and down. 4-7-2025 -This is a 1 year of operation report-, this and my other two saws remain operational and trouble free- Used this #1 saw this morning for removing shrubs with 3-4" trunk thickness on my property, easy peasy, Even tho the morning was cold, 3 flips of the starter rope and the saw started easily on choke, I used one tank of gas and started on another, and the job was done. Restart is a 1-flip operation. They ARE NOISY!! wear your ear protection. Again!!!! These saws are not over powered!!!! They are designed to be controllable and SAFE for the small jobs and close-in work they are sized for, and are light enough to use with one hand without giving you Tendonitis. If you want a fire breathing commercial power saw, THESE ARE NOT FOR YOU! I have heavy saws for heavy work. I break them out when I need them- but a pro knows its best not to drive tacks with a 10 lb sledge. These light saws have been a pleasure to use around my place!!! ... show more

  • Fantastic saw. Compares to my stihl ms290 for power
Size: 20 Inch
I'm not normally one to buy a knock off brand when it comes to gas powered equipment but I took a gamble on this saw. I'm blown away with how well this performs. It revs high, starts easy and runs strong. I felled 2 live oak trees with it back to back and chopped them Into 18 inch chunks. The saw handles really well. I do have 2 complaints. One being the bar, it is not as stout as other brands and after all the cutting the chain starter wearing into the metal and would cause the chain to wobble in the track. To fix this I threw my stihl farm boss bar on it after some slight modifications. Works great now. Two is the chain brake. When I first started it and it was new new it would slam shut while I was running it. I zip tied it shut and after running it a bit it's fine now. As you can see in the photo, my stihl ms290 is behind it, that saw blew up on me. Not wanting to spend 600 on a saw or 400 on rebuilding it, 160 bucks sounded alot better. I'll buy again if anything happens to this one. We'll worth the money ... show more

  • Really great saw!!
Size: 12 Inch
I have had this 12” saw for 7 days and have ran 15-20 tanks of fuel through it. It was easy to start out of the box and continues to start easily. My only complaint on it is the location of the on/off switch. I repeatedly hit it with my hand shutting the saw off. It out performs my echo and stihl saws. I like it so much I’m trying the 16” & 20” saws as well. You can’t go wrong with this saw! ... show more

  • Thoroughly impressed
Size: 12 Inch
I trimmed trees for 10 years professionally and still do a side job here and there. I bought the saw to see what the hype was about. I am thoroughly impressed. Just to test the saw out., I spent about eight hours cutting logs into to firewood lengths between 3 inches and 12 inches between two separate days and this little chainsaw did not skip a beat. I never had a single issue with the saw. It’s a great saw for the money. ... show more

  • Changes are necessary before you run this saw
Size: 20 Inch
It's an OK saw. I have not run any 25:1 gas in it, nor will I. I run klotz 2 cycle oil at 50:1 with no break in period, straight to the log pile at full throttle and it's perfectly fine after 50 plus 20 foot logs of varying hardness. I did what another customer said and changed the spark plug to a champion RCJ6Y and it helps. I have not yet needed to tune the carb. The air filter is complete garbage and I have not found a viable solution, yet! (Clean everything out before and during use) I never even put the neotec bar and chain on it, went straight to a more common Oregon combo .325 pitch, .050 gauge, 78 drive link. (Sorry, I don't remember the part number off hand) Do yourself a favor and switch it out now because neotec doesn't even offer a replacement combo for this saw. You can get an Oregon anywhere. After all of that the saw is now better and will work steady. I know it's Chinese, I know it's a clone but they've been at this for some time now and need to get with the times ... show more
