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.

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.

Nice Chainsaw

Would Recommend

I upgraded from the Mark II to this. I have been using it for weeks and it really cuts right through with ease. Like clockwork for both the Mark II and Rancher they start right up with the sequence shown on the chainsaw. Very impressed.
