What Customers Are Saying

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.

complete garbage

Would Not Recommend

They last about a year if you are lucky. I personally went through 4 of them. I now bought a stihl 271 and its a game changer. Same price. Its not worth the headache dealing with these. Get a Stihl. Like I said. I went through 4 of these ranchers. garbage. Get a real saw. Husq. reach out to me.

First Chainsaw

Would Not Recommend

My First Chainsaw I ever owned this 450 Rancher is amazing cuts good has plenty of power easy to handle I did have a problem with the chain coming off that's because I didn't know how to tighten it properly but when I watched the Husqvarna video and learn how to tighten it right it was all good.

Good saw

Would Recommend

Good saw. I've used it a lot and it's reliable. Does what it is supposed to do. I've owned a couple Ryobi and craftsman saws that were garbage, they don't compare to this saw.

The Real Article - Made in Sweden; Doesn't Quit.

Would Recommend

The real article - Made in Sweden, powerful engine, feels well-built in your hands. Built to finish the job without overheating or choking out. For a homeowner, this chainsaw pays for itself with the first tree down and quartered. Worth every penny.
