Yes, it does open a can of worms, LOL! I'd have to say the best saw would be one of appropriate size for the work you will be doing and one that you can get serviced and repaired locally. Personally, I do my own work and maintenance. Maintenance is really the key to keeping a saw running and performing properly. You've got all kinds of comments on brands. Personally I like Stihl, and the MS 390 I've had since '02. It is top of the line mid range. My friend has used an MS 361 for years, both of these have been very good. He picked up another slightly used, like new saw off CL, Stihl, but smaller, very good saw too.
We have a power equipment shop locally that sells and services Husqvarna and Echo. The Husqvarna Rancher I thought was a decent saw, broke in a brand new one, a friends, who uses it to help maintain this place, kind of a trade off as he hunts here. The owner of the aforementioned shop, is retired now, his partner runs it, but they still work on all the brands, and you will see many of the old Homelite and similar in there. He lives across the lane from me and sure has some interesting power equipment acquired over the years, including a few older saws. This shop supports quite a few customers with many different brands, so I'd say with a reputable brand and a good shop to support it, that will be your best saw.

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
