The Husqvarna chainsaw is described as a powerful and capable tool that can quickly cut through wood. Many customers praise its performance and reliability, with some reporting it has lasted them for years. However, a significant number of customers have experienced issues with the saw, such as difficulty starting, the chain coming off or getting damaged easily, and problems with various components. The reviews suggest the saw's quality and durability are mixed, and buyers should be prepared to potentially deal with problems that may require warranty service or replacement.

Junk

Would Not Recommend

Only used two days already have issues with it. tried to take back to Lowes they said it has to be returned within 48 hours. Will not ever by another Husqvarna and will never buy power equipment from Lowes or Hone Depit. Buy somewhere that will service the equipment also.

Chainsaw won't start

Would Not Recommend

I bought this chainsaw and extended service guarantee online during an ice storm, and it arrived on a Wednesday. The storm cleared enough to begin cleanup on Saturday. I unboxed it and tried to start the chainsaw according to the manufacturer's instructions. it would only start for a few seconds then won't run. I changed the fuel to fresh fuel just in case. Still won't start. I took it to the local Lowes for exchange, and they said since I'd had it longer than 48 hours, I couldn't return i...

So Disappointed

Would Not Recommend

We purchased some adjoining land, to our home, this year. The average is all wooded and was overgrown and needed some serious care for dead tree remains Val etc… so we go purchase my husband the Ranger. It ran poorly from day one but this was husbands first really good chainsaw.. week two, the new chainsaw came to a complete stop and the refused to start again. We tracked down a local Husquarvana shop and took the saw in for repairs. Now it seems our ranger left the Husquavarna factory with a f...

Decent Saw

Would Recommend

Bought at a great price last year. Used it to buck two large downed White Oaks and it ran great except for bar freezing up, which happened to me again later on. Could be user error on not running full throttle after cuts to clear sawdust. Is it a Stihl? No. But $200 to $300 cheaper so...... I'm a homeowner and would not buy this saw for commercial use or for repeated large tree felling.

Great product great Lowes

Would Recommend

I gave this chainsaw to my son last Christmas. He loved it so much, as did his friends and coworkers , that I bought one for my son-in-law this Christmas. I used an online purchase early afternoon on Christmas eve, and feared that the store personnel would not be able to get to fill the order before the store closed. I went with my hat in hand, and the front manager and returns clerk found the outdoor equipment leader, who had just pulled my chainsaw from the shelves. He checked it out to me a...

Husqvarna 450 Rancher chainsaw

Would Recommend

Excellent chainsaw! I bought one in 2015 and just bought a new one, same make and model. Hope it lasts 10 years like the last one. It cost about 100 bucks more than it did in 2015, so I guess that isn't too bad. Glad Lowes gives veterans a 10% discount, that really helps!
