[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Had this saw a few years already. Give it a yearly tune up. Runs just fine. Easy to start and a good basic saw. I wouldn't use it for professional use but throwing it in the back of the truck and going in the woods is just fine. Cut quite a few down trees after windstorms. Just an all around decent saw for general use. Down side will leak bar oil. So I fill it for the job I'm doing. And it's a pressurized tank so when I'm done I unscrew the fil...

Garbage from Lowes
Chainsaw is impossibly hard to start especially after using it then shutting it off for a few moments to refuel, sharpen chain etc. Also boggs down badly during most cuts. Tried to return it but was informed by Lowes that you need to return within 48 hours. Its very hard to evaluate a chainsaw in 48 hours. That policy is just a copout by Lowes because they know the chainsaws they sell are garbage and are likely to be returned. I would highly recommend steering clear of any Husqvarna chain saw an...
Cuts great....when I can get it started
Usually starts acceptably except after: I use it, stop it, wait about 15 minutes, then try to restart. Always gives me trouble starting with that scenario. Unfortunately this happens a lot when using a chainsaw. You always need to re-fuel, add chain oil, or just move the wood you've been cutting. I suspect its a flooding issue because if I wait a few hours it starts again. Other than the restart issue, this seems to be a pretty good quality machine. Feels solid with enough power for what I need....

Steer Clear of this brand!!!
STEER CLEAR OF THIS BRAND!!! My saw did not idle right out of the box. Lowe’s wouldn’t take it back and Husqvarna did nothing to help me except telling me to take it to one of their service centers. Not only did the service center say they’d have to send it out and I would have to wait three weeks to get it back. They wanted to charge me to repair it. This was a brand new saw. Highly recommend you go with a different brand in case you have a problem because they could care less once they’ve gott...

Good if your goal is to learn how to fix chainsaws
Having owned this saw, it's not for me. I also don't think it's for a lot of other people. It's almost too big for anyone with a small property and light tasks and it's also too unreliable and inconsistent for anyone with a large property requiring continued heavy use. When it wants to perform, it's above adequate at best. If you do buy it, replace the chain immediately. The clutch is sketchy and feels on the brink of breaking most days. It doesn't perform more than it does and you'll spend more...

Good saw
Had minor trouble starting it the first time but starts on3-4 pulls since. Cuts pretty good tho this 2.5 ft. diameter pecan tree is only time used.Tough tree for a saw of this size and power.

Power
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Was a stihl man since I was a kid first husky saw I have owned, since I loved there snowblower had to try the saw. Loved it can’t believe the amount of power this thing has. Did need a carb adjustment but once that was done ran great.

Tough, Easy-Starting Workhorse: Husqvarna 440 + Po
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After a few weekends of limbing, bucking downed branches, and cutting firewood on my hobby farm, the Husqvarna 440 has been a standout. It feels solid and durable without being overly heavy, and the Smart Start + air purge make it refreshingly easy to fire up, even when I’m bouncing between quick jobs. Performance-wise, it has the power and bite you want for typical farm tasks—clean cuts, steady pull through hardwood, and noticeably smooth h...

Handles hardwood like a boss
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this saw for free from a friend and I immediately used it to cut up a huge Green Ash tree that I had taken down, it cut through everything with relative ease, it struggled with some 30inch+ rounds but it got through them and now I have a ton of wood, I would highly recommend to anyone with some wood they need cleared
