What Customers Are Saying

The chainsaw appears to be a powerful and reliable tool for most users, with praise for its excellent cutting ability, ease of starting, and overall quality. Many customers highlight the saw's impressive power and ability to quickly cut through large logs and hardwood. However, some users have experienced issues with starting, the chain, and durability of certain components. While the saw may not be suitable for professional or heavy-duty use, it seems well-suited for homeowner and light-duty tasks.

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...

Quality lacking for the price.

Would Not Recommend

The lone stud/nut on the cover vibrates loose, the tensioner disengages, thus the bar slips and the chain derails. This CUT THROUGH the chain guard and damaged the sprocket mount & steel plate internally. When it wasn't trying to kill me it was impressive. Powerful and lightweight & easy to start.

It is what it is

Cuts good once you get it started. It said 5 pulls and it was at least that.

Gets the job done

Would Recommend

This saw is a beast. Took down a 30" diameter Elm without hesitation right it off the box. Started right up. Although I did have to adjust the idle a little, but that's not difficult if you know what your doing. Highly recommend if you're looking for a cost-effective monster.

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.
