I won't go with a cordless again. Have had one of the first Oregon 40V saws and it did real good UNTIL......a small sprinkle caught me and the saw got slightly wet. Hasn't worked since. Have 2 good batteries and the saw is dead.
That said, I used to have a nice Stihl saw about 20-some years ago. Was a really nice saw. How nice? So nice that I forgot to add oil to some gas and screwed it up. Put new rings in it and it ran for a few more weeks.
Still have a Poulan Pro that I got before the Stihl. I don't know if the Poulan Pro saws are still made like this one, but this doggone saw has been HORRIBLY abused! Still starts and runs like a champ. Bar oil bleeds out when not running and it smells slightly gassy when running, but it has been an impressive saw for the money. I just put a new chain on it recently and it still cuts through wood like a hot knife through butter. It has an 18" bar/chain.
I only had my Stihl for a few months when I stupidly forgot to add that oil, so that was an expensive goof on my part. For the amount of wood I cut, that old Poulan Pro is still working just fine. ....And I DO NOT LIKE Poulan products! But this saw has truly been impressive.
