I grew up running Stihl saws, but when I started looking for a saw to buy I went to Husky. I spent several years building log houses, and quite often ran a saw all day. Huskies are smooooth running, strong saws. Never had a problem with any of them. I ran a 359 w/ a 24" oregon bar for several years, and loved it, then accidentily went into the saw shop on pay day once. Ended up leavin w/ a 372xp w/ 24" and 32" Oregon bars and a few more chains. Thought I'd died and gone to heaven. I can do the really precision work better w/ the 24" on that 372 than I can w/ my little 41 or 359. That big saw has enough power and weight so it won't skip or bind, and won't give me any extra opportunity to foul up someone's $100k log package. I Just use chains untill they gut a little shabby and set them aside. Take 8 or 10 into the saw shop at a time and let him sharpen them for $8 each. If I was workin outside in the dirt, and went through chains faster, I'd buy a grinder setup and do it myself. The guy that owns the shop has become a friend. He worked in the woods for years then opened the shop and he sold Stihls exclusively. Said several years ago their quality took a big nose dive and he switched to Huskies. Just all around darned good saws!
