I've got a pretty low opinion of all the small light homeowner type saws and every one of them made some. We had a Stihl 034 and a Jonsered 510. The Stihl was OK. The Jonsered was useless. Vibration was the biggest thing with both.
We've also had a Stihl 038 Super for close to 30 years. Still going strong. Have a Stihl 044 that was good but lost the crank in it last spring. Got to pick up an MS441 this week. Also have an MS361.
I'd recomend any of those saws... The 361 is a bit lighter but a strong performer for a light pro saw. The 38 is a big, heavy tough old saw. There isn't much plastic in that one...
I don't know the Husky line so well but I beleive their main pro saws are the 354, 365 and 372. I know various people that have all of them and hardly a bad word about any. Good saws.
I'd simply suggest that you stay with a pro saw. If you don't want to lay out a lot of money, buy an older one.
I might add that all of the saws that we have are used in blocking commercial firewood... about the most demanding job you can put on any saw.

Today's Featured Article - Product Review: Lead Substitutes - by Mike Schordine. Lead was oriinally added to gasoline as an upper cylinder lubricant. It lubes the valves and seats. If you rebuild the motor, you could use hardened seats and valves, and unleaded fuel. But if your old tractor runs good, a simple lead substitute added to the gas is a perfectly reasonable solution. And, if you are like me, your tractor is under cover, but it sits outside. So with every temperature change, the humidity in the air collects in the fuel tank, in the form of water. ...
