For decades all I ran was Stihl.
Acting on the advise of a few of the fine gentlemen on this site I purchased a new Jonsered a few years ago and I have been quite happy with it.
Not that it makes a big difference unless you are using it 8 hours a day but my Stihl 038 AV super (4.4 HP) seems like it uses twice as much fuel as my Jonsered CS 2166 (4.9 HP).
Saturday I was bucking firewood down to size and the boys were heaving it onto the truck.
The Jonsered went through 1 full tank of fuel (1.5 pint) and 5 minutes run time after being refueled to cut up enough logs to fill a tandem dump truck.
The boys are used to me cutting with the Stihl and were complaining doesn't that thing ever run out of fuel? we need a break.
Both saws have similar size fuel tanks.
I was told the Jonsered runs at a higher RPM than the Stihl but I have not looked that up to confirm it.
