About this product

Product Information

Abandon frustration in favor of contentment when using an Echo CS-400 chain saw with inbuilt i-30 technology, which reduces failed starts by 30-percent. Users range from professionals to farmers to homeowners that appreciate the easy to use automotive-style filter and ignition system that automatically adjusts engine timing. The design of the chain saw includes a bypass to allow for cold weather starting and a reduced vibration system for value-added comfort. The G-Force Air Pre-Cleaner spins out debris, which extends the 40.2cc Vortex engine's life, and the adjustable automatic oiler lessens time required for maintenance. With controls grouped together and a slide access, the chain tensioner helps provide a more stress-free sawing experience.

    So far so good

    Purchased brand new, make sure to use proper fuel and oil mix with these new small engines, they're not like the old ones that can take some serious abuse. Otherwise can't beat the value on this saw, takes down 12 in. trees easily. Stock chain is so-so, I will replace with stihl chain once this one's worn out.

  • Most critical review

    Medium Power saw. Great for light duty.

    Started on the 3rd Crank. Cuts good. Medium Power Chainsaw. I have a Husqvarna with the same size engine. The Husqvarna will out preform the Echo. But it works well for what I use it for. I'm happy with my purchase. Thank You Todd

  • Cuts great, well built.

    I bought this Echo CS400 because the more expensive Stihl MS211 chainsaw that I had recently bought was a disappointment. Other than learning the proper procedure for cranking it the first time, I love this saw. I had to take it to a dealer to have them crank it the first time and it has worked every time since. You only push the bulb twice if fuel is in it, you pull out the choke and pull the cord only twice, push the choke back in and then pull the cord and it will crank on the first or second pull. They said that Echo saws would flood easily and never pull it more than twice with the choke out. This thing cuts so much faster and better than my other saw. I used an entire tank of gas before adjusting the tension on the chain, and even then it really didn't need it. It comes with a tool that is a "T" with the socket and a screwdriver bit on it that makes the adjustment very easy and quick, unlike the Stihl that had to be adjusted after every few cuts because it is plastic and can be done without any tools but can't be tightened down very much. I have only used this Echo a few times, but would highly recommend it over the Stihl "Home Owners" category of saws or the Poulan saws that I have owned. I am over 60 and have used chain saws since my high school days.

  • Echo CS-400....Great value and quality

    This chainsaw starts nicely and performs well. It saws through even hard woods with ease and power. One can hear the power in the tone of the engine compared to saws or other 2-cycle equipment with smaller engines. We've taken down and cut up ten trees all about 12-14" diameter in one day without any difficulty. I also use engineered fuel for my equipment as there are many times when they are not in use.

  • Echo chain saw

    I didn’t give it a 5 because it would not fire when I tried to start it. I decided to try a new spark plug and that was the problem. To date I have cut down and cut up one tree. The saw worked great. It’s light weight with plenty of power. As of right now I am happy with my purchase and hope it will provide years of service.

  • Great saw

    Super chainsaw! Began using it as soon as I received it to clean up storm damage to several trees. Has tons of power cutting up trees up to 18” in diameter, and it is light enough in weight to makes limbing easy. Wish I had bought this Echo years earlier!

  • Nice saw but has one big problem.

    The saw starts easy and cuts fast. The big problem we have with it is the chain comes off to often.We've tried different things to keep it from coming off (keeping it snug, being careful when cutting small branches) but nothing seems to stop the problem.

  • Good but chain quality is cheap

    I bought this for my neighbor and he has one of the same that he got years ago, he is a farmer. He said that this one, the chain is cheap quality. He said when he cut into smaller branches it cut like butter but had problems because of the chain quality when he had to cut into a bigger tree trunk.

  • Echo CS-400 is great

    Great performance. Typical of Echo quality. Would like to have had the kickback feature already installed.
