Big improvement over the old ones
Much better build than the last generation of Chinese saws, but whether it will last is a whole other thing. The case is now metal, and it has a much better air filter. The bar lube cap is a bit dodgy. These saws are good for people that occasionally cut a tree or two down and into firewood and cant justify paying for a 'real' saw.You get your moneys worth, and chuck them away. You need to do a few repairs yourself usually to keep them going as they are made out of low quality materials and not designed the best. I expect the chain will stretch fairly quickly and it will drop in power, but for now its cutting well fresh out of the box. I havent tried it on its side while cutting down a tree yet, which is when these Chinese things usually play up.
