Would Not RecommendAfter the fourth chain got eaten up by this chainsaw, I've about had it. I've only brought this thing out of the garage about 10 times in total and 5 of those times the chain has jumped off and is ruined by the design of this chainsaw. On the third time, I cleaned the channels on the bar, checked that the oil was feeding, got the tension just right and cut into a piece of wood. All good, so I tightened the chain a little more just in case there was some stretch. Tension still was good. Go to ma...
This is the old model
Would RecommendI found out why you could save 100 dollars buying online only. I went to store to purchase it for the sale price but was informed it's an online price only. So I ordered it but upon receiving it I see it is the old discontinued model. This is the rancher 450 replaced by the rancher 450 S. Not a real big deal but the S model is a lil better and the store will not inform you about this. They told me it's the same saw but it is not.

Junk and very dangerous
Would Not RecommendPurchase the saw last week and I just got to use it and out of all the saws I've ever used I can say that a cheap junkie pole and saw runs better than this one. Constantly jumps you got to use a lot of your strength to keep it from jumping up and hitting you in the freaking forehead and I'm past the 48 hours to return it to Lowe's because I didn't use it the day I got it. I strongly recommend do not buy this saw it's extremely dangerous.

Junk
Would Not RecommendOnly 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 RecommendI 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...
