Husqvarna 555 anyone got one?

Hi... I'm looking to add a new saw in the 50 - 60cc range.

I like the look of the 555. Any reviews?

Yep got one here. Not bad saw, running .325 on a 18", man enough for me. Cut some 24"plus wind blown oak and 28" conifer no probs. No real probs with auto tune so far, once initial fire and choke off, takes a few pulls to get it running, once running will tick over for ages.

Ive got one, had it for a year or so running a .325 18'' bar, pulls really well, nice saw

Thanks guys...

I was considering a 550xp but feel the 555 will be a better all rounder. .

Guy I work with has one, great saw for the money. Too many people think they've got to get a saw from the xp range.

my work has one, i hate it with a passion!

 

fussy to start, even fussier as a chipper saw. never really seems to settle down into good cutting speeds, always feels like its bouncing off limiter type moment.

 

i would rather, and have driven home for either my own 357 or 372.

 

wouldnt buy one ever!
