I hear what your all saying . Has anyone got one of these saws . Are they just that good that no one wants me to get one . I was told they are truly amazing . The bugger might of been telling porkies tho .

Who told you?A dealer? My local garden shop is always trying to get me to buy tanaka, and it always seems too heavy and bulky and plasticky compared to stihl. Longevity i am told is the main problem.

Never used one but what price is it? if its half the price of the stihl it will be half the saw, if its the same price buy the stihl. ive had an efco top hander for about 5 years as a back up saw use it when doing conifers but its not a patch on the stihl for sectioning timber, but its fine for stinking conifer hedges and if it gets snaged or dropped who cares.

 

horses for courses mate.

I've had one for a while. I bought it to do palms, they eat Stihls.

 

It's no 200 and a bit bulky at first but it hasn't let me down yet and it's done a bit of work. Just Carlton 050 chain, 15" bar, gets most palms down ok.

 

For the price, I can't complain.
