The only problem I have ever had with Stihl is dropping the 200t 40ft out of the tree, thinking I had clipped it to my loop, threw it out, catching the lanyard, gasping when the carabina ran thru my hand.

The saw was 1 day old.

 

The only other thing has been the earth wire breaks on the 200t so it won't switch off.

 

That is genuinely the only faults I have had wth stihl and I have

There will allways be the dodgy saws from both manufacturers loads of people on here rate the 357xpg highly yet mine has been back to the dealer a zillion times!

 

If a saws faulty I just keep throwing them back at the dealer shouting louder each time!:cussing:

Same here. I'm a die hard husky fan, but hate the 2 357's I have. I bought a 341 instead of buying another.

357xpg is the only husky I have, I use that for logging up so it gets some stick, not missed a beat!

That seems to be the whole problem with a 357 if you get a good un its great get a bad un and its unbearable.
