Why have chainsaws got worse?

[Mortimer Firewood]

I don't use saws everyday probably two days out of a week on average I've had a Stihl ms260 for 7 years just put a clutch in it. Ms200 for 6 years clutch and top handle replaced. 362 4/5 years not a thing 660/461 / not a thing needed on them all though I do think the oiler is pants on the 660. 201 our climber hates it and picks up the 200 so it's only on its second chain

 

Had an early 560 and hated it could not start from cold used one the other day and it was a joy to use.

 

I don't think new saws are that poorly made.

Husky 560xp IMO is the the best 60cc saw ever produced

[R Haigh]

Yes loads, Infact I've got far to many saws mainly 50-70cc and the 560xp pisses on any other in it's class but I've yet to try the 361 but I doubt it's gonna be better
