New echo chainsaw (USA)

[Rob D]

We are Echo dealers - and we find the marketing confusing! So unless you are a real Echo aficionado I have no idea how the customer figures out what's what! But then looking at manufacturers and the way things are advertised these days is so chock a block full of spam and guff I'm surprised anyone can work out the facts.

 

Trying to dig details out of the big names is like pulling teeth. Went to Husky website and there is so much of this sort of stuff which takes up a lot of space and tells you... nothing! Oh no - it does tell you something - it tells you repeatedly how wonderful the company is!!

Where did you swipe that from Rob? Looks like something google translate has churned out

Ref Echo - their new models seem to be very solid performers ie. 2511s, DCS2500T [Battery], 281s and 362s pretty good but don't seem to be as 'modernised' as the 2511, 390ESX is great as is the 501SX, and the 621SX and 7310SX are both new saws and likely to be very good.

New pro 40cc saws looks good.
 
 
 

Mmm looks like it didn't have the power to fell it lower down in the buttress hence his ridiculous stump.....barely looked like it had the power to dress out 3" conifer branches ! I'll give it a miss and stick with my 550's

It's more a moan as I have to spend a fair amount of time going through their website to match bars/chains that then slot into the selector. Generally it's pretty miserable work! But it feels like salt in the wound when you see all the different massive banners telling you how easy everything is and how wonderful the world is with a Husky in your hands....

 

There seems to be a path of 'maximum guff - minimum facts'. Not saying get rid of all the flashy banners but shouldn't it be more the customer saying how great the brand is not the brand itself 😅😅

Strangely can't figure out if it is either Sugihara and Tsumura that are working with Husky - or both as the noses on some bars look Sugi like and some Tsumura like 🤷‍♂️

Yeah echo range is really confusing so many small  similar saws hard to know whats what etc.

 

 

 

Aren't the pro ones X series?

 

But then from the myriad of  the the none X series ones some  are better spec than others?

 

And why do some have 4 digit numbers and different letters some 3?
