T540xp or the new 201 TCM?

[Ian C]

Had my 540 coming up 2 yrs with no problems, never used a 201 so can't comment on them but I do like the husky.

I switch from my 201 about 4 months ago and in that time both clutch springs have snapped. And as said in earlier in the post the saw goes cold within minuets. Apart from them few hiccups i thinks the 540xp is a real good powerful saw.

Had my 540 for over 2 years now and apart from having to replace a split impulse hose about 3 months ago I cant say a bad word about it. I've got 3 x Ms200t's to choose from, one being brand new and unused but I prefer the 540.

Neither

 

Look outside the box, see the light!

 

To me, it doesn't look like there are any decent options "outside the box".

I posted a review on the new 201tcm at beginning of year, and I have since neglected to add anything to it....

 

But i got it at xmas time, and since then I have had absolutely no problems with it, and its been a great saw. I cant really say anything against it. I hated the "old" 201, just a gutless moped, but this one i can genuinely recommend.

Myself and a workmate got one, and we've proper abused them with every manner of cutting we could devise, and still they are running without any problems.

 

Its already been said, but it is the next 200t.

Thanks for the update, I have 2 x 201s, an early gutless one that I paid for the upgrade on and a later "good" one. I alternate them on a daily basis.

Apart from having to upgrade the first one I have not had a single issue with either of them.

The m-tronic model has a complete different feel about it.

Agreed....used it a couple of times this week and was very impressed

How would you compare it to your 200?
