seen these husky vs stihl threads before, never contributed to one so here's a few thoughts then I'll never need to contribute to one again.

 

Stihl 020t/ms200t, 046/ms460, 066/MS660 - excellent saws, the 660 is probably the best saw ever made, the sheer amount of work it will do in it's life with relatively little maintenance is incredible. Not made anymore though eh, same as the ms200t - best top handled saw ever made, it's successor the ms201t is a disgrace to the stihl name.

 

Husky 346xp, 560xp, 372xp, 385xp - excellent saws, as good as the Stihls above, the 346xp when use wisely can get through a serious amount of work despite being a small saw. 560xp (the newer versions) - beast of a saw, 372xp and 385xp - as good as the equivalent Stihls.

 

Jonsered cs2171 - excellent saw, like the 372xp it's derived from it's a saw you can rely on day after day without almost no maintenance other than sharpening/air filter clean etc. It's more robust and better built than the 372xp for some reason, which is why it gets a mention.
