I cannot comment on the saw in use, but our local dealer has one on the shelf and a quick pick up and look over didn't impress.

 

It felt very cheap and flimsy, and not what I feel an xp badged saw would feel like. It reminded me of a fake husky like you see on fleabay, like a b&q home owner type of saw.

 

Just my feelings on it, could be a belter in use:confused1:

It's a poor design in comparison to the rest of the 5 series huskies, as I've said before, it lacks all of the new XP range gizmos. May as well buy a 545 for a few quid more!

For all the technophobes who don't like autotune, it's ideal, but the autotune/m-tronic squeezes out those last bits of power, that unless you carry a tach and screwdriver, are unobtainable on a normal carb saw
