I'm loving mine, is it as quick as the 56o...dunno, but it feels in the ballpark, it is a stronger feeling saw in the cut & doesnt rely on revs as much to keep cutting, that means it has better midrange torque.

It is reliable, form your own comparisons there, & you can adjust the carb to suit in the field.

Is it heavier than the 560, dunno, but it is a well balanced saw, good in the hand, & I could feel no weight diferencial in the field.

 

Best accolade I can think of is if you offered me a brand spanking 560 to swap for my Echo I would not take the deal.

Have you tried a 560 Geoff? Personally I wouldn't use any other 60cc saw stock!

Yes Eddy I have, a few days use, & it is a nice fast saw, I just rate the Echo for it's strong midrange power, if you lean on it it tends to just get stuck into the job of cutting, they are both fine machines.
