I had a good look at this saw today...felt very comfortable in the hand and had some nice little features. If I was in the market for a new climbing saw at the moment i'd definately be giving it some serious consideration. I also liked the look of the Echo hedge cutters

I also studied this little saw today, I already like the Echo range of trimmers and if this is as good then there should be no worries. Very comfortable (ergonomic) in the hand, I'm not in the market for a new topper, but if I was I'd seriously give this a go.

I have put two tanks of Aspen through my 360tes, it seems a good saw, plenty of power, clean running etc, I like the balance too. Only small gripes: fuel filler hole is fairly small compared to a Stihl, I would like the kill switch to be 'off' when pushed towards the bar, rather than having to be pulled towards the operator, & think it could do with a more aggressive chain on it, but mine is running a 14 inch bar with no problems, I'm going to get hold of RobD & see if a nice pointy bar & chain can be supplied for it in 12 inch, similar to the shape of the ms150t bar in shape, as it would be great for light pruning too. The saw is still tight & new, but is a little screamer, very promicing indeed!

I've had mine since they arrived in the country and put a couple of gallon through and it's excellent! Just keeps getting better and comparatively im almost certain it would keep with if not (dare I say it haha) beat a 200t :sly: I know what you mean about the filler holes but if you have a husky fuel can it's no bother as the anti spill spout fits.

That does not surprise me one bit mate, mine is fresh, & yet has an impressive output, way above what I expected, thing is the motor seems to be keen to please,glitch free, & running on a good carb, how refreshing!:biggrin:

This saw looks very similar to the old model, whats the main difference,if there is any?

 

If you mean the 350tes as the old one, the motor is slightly uprated, the chainbrake handle is mounted at both sides, the left grab handle is downwards rather than sweeping back, 14" bar, & an adjusting block can be swapped over for palm support on the top handle. Other than that you will have to look at the specs, basically it feels a stronger saw to me.:001_smile:
