You get what you pay for... |
Poulan saws are cheap, and the quality reflects that.

The chain oil pump gear is nylon, and prone to stripping.
Parts are inexpensive, and available - but do you have time and knowledge to repair things like oil pumps and anti vibe springs.
I'll spend more and get a Stihl or Husqvarna from now on. |

Cuts Well |
|
It appears to be a good design with the exception of the clutch cover which is difficult to attach properly. The saw cuts amazingly fast and the chain retains sharpness longer than I expected (I have used the saw for about 2 hours so far). Power is sufficient for a 20" bar. If I had to make a purchase decision again, I would still choose this saw for the price/performance ratio. The included case was an unexpected bonus. |

Maybe if it was free I could deal. |

The chain tensioning system is awful. It kicks the blade off and I spend more time fixing then cutting. Runs find but feels cheap and flimsy. Not something I trust to have cutting at full speed near my body. I've had a Homelite, Stihl, and Craftsman and they all make this look like a dangerous kids toy. I am back to using my 16" as it cuts faster and it's solid. |

Good Saw but had a few problems. |
Been working cutting down a lot of pine Beetle kill off in the mountains of Colorado. I have used this saw for a few years and have worked great.Starts every time and is very clean running. The tool less adjustment for the chain broke after a year. The adjustment got bent up. I just bought a new saw from Husqvarna 357XP. If you pay more money for a saw you get a lot more.Also wear safety equipment.

Pay cheap, get cheap. |
It's better to approach this saw with low expectations. The first thing you notice is that the body is all plastic. As noted elsewhere even the tightening knob is plastic. I've gone through one knob in a few months and bought two spares. The bar clamp doesn't lock the bar down so the chain flies off easily. DON'T take the bar off because lining up the lug with the hole is a challenge. The air filter is an expensive but flimsy plastic-and-gauze assembly that loads up quickly and tears. Even if the filter isn't torn dirt gets through the rinky-dink gasket under it.
But what do you expect when you pay under $200 for a 20-inch saw? I'm shopping for a better saw. I'll keep this one for emergencies. |
