closest equivilent to ms150?

[billpierce]

any other makes make something like a back handle ms150. i got the makita 230t which i love but can;t get back handle. its for carving.

 

echo do anything in the pro range similar? or any others? i want it to be pro spec i think as i know it'll last better.

 

thanks

I have the little echo cs270 wes, If I had the choice again I would by a 150 as its night and day better than the echo but there is a hefty price difference

why do you like it better then? its a bit lighter right but less power? is the 280 a home user saw?

What about the Stihl MS201?

Back handle, pro-design, lightweight. Everything you are after.

i have a dolmar ps3410 which is a light 35cc pro saw. i was after an even lighter saw foe carving with maybe an 8'' or 10" R7 sugi bar. thanks though!
