Nothing beats a Johnsred in fact there isn't a close second. I have a real power house in my saw which I think is a model 2171 which I used yesterday which is a couple of years old now. It is by far the best cutting and powerful chain saw I have ever used. It will really cut a chip so fast they can hardly clear the saw. I will never buy another Sthil chain saw. Bought a brand new one (model MS360 I think) and it would never run more then 15 to 20 minutes before it couldn't be restarted. Took it back to the original selling dealer at least 20 times. They never could find anything wrong with it as it would always run during their testing period. Finally it got even worse, and they agreed to tear it down to find why it was so gutless. Told me I wore it out (it didn't have 12 to 15 hours of total time on it) as there was something wrong with the air cleaner which diverted the air around the air cleaner directly into the carb. This I guess I was suppose to find on my own as they never got that far into the saw during the numerous times it was in their shop. Sthil or the dealer said it was all my fault as it was being used improperly without filtered air. Never again will I buy any power tool with any engine from that farm store regardless of brand or anything with the Sthil name.
