A lot of bang for your buck
By Chain Saws Direct (Bolingbrook, IL)
This is a lot of bang for your buck.
For 20 bucks more than its best selling cousin the 235E, you get more power.
What makes this also a savvy purchase is that the larger engine will let them get done cutting faster without adding a lot more weight.
The Smart Start feature makes the pull start up to 40% easier than other engines.
Not having to cuss and strain will make the $20 bucks well worthwhile.

Excellent Buy for the money
By keith (Fairmont, MN)
This is an excellent buy for the money.
It took me 16 years to wear out a Husqvarna 36, and I expect the same out of this one.
I cut a couple of hundred trees per year between 6" and 30" thick. This saw is a little too small for the larger trees, but handles like a dream because of the light weight and good balance.
