What experience have you has with them mate,

 

I don't think 6 weeks is very acceptable, for a so called pro saw under warranty and it's still not back do you?

6 weeks is definately not acceptable - agreed. 1 week, max 2 I reckon otherwise loan saw.

 

I've taken 4 saws in there at 10am, all been tuned by 12 noon after a quick trip into exeter centre. There's a whole lot more to service than the price, and sometimes if you can overlook the bitter and twisted salesman the deal works out better in the long run. My particular admiration for radmore and tucker is due to them being (or should I say employing) the best 2-stroke tuner in the south-west. They know how to PDI a saw properly; 9 out of 10 chainsaw shops don't. They must hate autotune saws tho - then said employee can't work his magic. Another reason I'm sticking with Echo and Dolmar.

jon I've just had a similar experience myself,had a 550 and a 560 both less than a year old,both split oil tank gasket,8 weeks later I have them back,used 254 and 242 in the woods for last 3 weeks as stop gap.dealer says husky pay them for 2hrs labour and its an 8hr job so lost money,they also said if it goes again they'll give me new saw(s) so why not do that in the first place??
