Husqvarna Chainsaw Review - Truth About Husqvarna Chainsaws
When searching for a Husqvarna chainsaw review bear in mind that simply reading a review won't give you everything you'll need to know.
Reviews are great but in the chainsaw world, it's apparent that "one man's treasure is another man's poison." In other words, there is plenty of biased and parochial opinions when it comes to chainsaws and you need to decipher fact from fiction.
Husqvarna Chainsaw Reviews
Two excellent ways to review a Husqvarna chainsaw is to simply visit an online forum dedicated to power tool users and woodcutters and to actually visit a dealer and take a saw "for a spin."
Online forums have become part and parcel of any product review because the people involved in a forum are there because they have an interest and love the niche their involved with.
It's no different with chainsaw users who love to "chew the fat" and discuss anything related to the world's most dangerous power tool. Many times, discussion involves particular brands and models and this is where you can get a good insight into what a chainsaw can do.
Reviews of Husqvarna chainsaws are numerous and by participating in these forums, you'll get a good cross-section of responses. Simply join, ask a question about the Husqvarna saw you're interested in with reference to it's value for money, reliability, power and safety. Make sure you state the models name.
For example, if you were contemplating purchasing the new Husqvarna 450 e-series chainsaw you would ask questions such as is it worth the price; are there comparable saws on the market for less cost, is it easy to start and is it suitable for non to semi-professionals.
Take A Test Run
Many dealers welcome the opportunity to provide a demonstration of how a saw performs. Granted, they are a short but you at least get a first hand look and the chance to feel the saw in action.
It's an important aspect of a Husqvarna chainsaw review and in fact, many buyers will base their opinion simply on this short demonstration.

Should You Buy a Secondhand Gas Hedge Trimmer?
Should you buy a used gas hedge trimmer? Generally when buying secondhand whether it be tools or appliances, there is normally no guarantee on them which means you can not take them back if they refuse to work. If you buy your used gas hedge trimmer from a chainsaw or lawnmower dealer, it may be have been traded in by the seller who has upgraded to a new model and the dealer may offer you a warranty with it and if you are lucky, it might have been fully serviced.
Where Can I Buy
For obvious reasons a dealer would be the best place to buy, they often have trade in units for sale and usually at a reduced price. Ask them if they will give you a warranty, a thirty day warranty will give you some peace of mind. Other places to search for secondhand gas hedge trimmers include the classified section of your newspaper, message boards at your local mall, also look at second hand goods stores and pawn shops - often these places are great for getting bargains.
You can also buy online, head over to your favorite search engine such as Yahoo or Google and look for secondhand or used gas hedge trimmers, also browse the listings on sites such as eBay. Amazon is well worth looking at, as often they will have refurbished units for sale with a warranty at a fraction of the cost of a new unit and quite often include free shipping.
What Do I Need To Look For
Take a close look at the condition and appearance, this will give you an indication of whether the owner has looked after the unit or not. Check the wear on the handles as this will quite often give you an idea of the age of the unit. Look a the make and model numbers - often an online search of those will give you an idea of the age of the tool and also any issues to be aware of with that particular model.
Inspect the blades closely, see if they have been correctly sharpened and the cutting angle of the blade is correct and not worn - also look for nicks in the blades. Dull or worn blades are dangerous and can cause the hedge trimmer to jam when in use.
Make sure the seller demonstrates the hedge trimmer working, check to make sure it starts easily, no more than one or two pulls on the chord with the choke engaged and the engine should start. If it does not start easily, it could mean issues such as spark problems or something more serious such as electronic ignition faults.
Test the blade lock mechanism if the tool has one fitted - with the blade lock activated the blades should not move and the engine should idle easily. Let the engine warm up first and then rev the engine, listening for strange noises and observing exhaust emissions. Two stroke engines do emit a bit of smoke, but this should not be excessive. Excessive smoke could be an indication of an incorrect fuel to oil mix or something more serious. Check the shutoff switches making sure they do in fact turn off the engine when engaged. Also check for any vibrations in the tool when running, most newer models have anti-vibration features built in.
Buying Considerations
What is the price of the second hand hedge trimmer - is it fair and relative to the age and condition of the machine? How does it compare to the price of a new one?
Always try and negotiate, you may be surprised, often people just really want to get rid of second hand items. Be also aware that you have no idea of the internal condition of the engine of the unit, you may buy it and two days after the purchase the engine may stop, requiring expensive repairs or replacement.
The home handyman range of gas hedge trimmers should give you 1 to 2 years of service and the commercial models 2 to 3 years of work before needing major repairs.
Another option you have when buying second hand (especially from some one local in your area) , ask if they mind you taking the hedge trimmer into your local chainsaw dealer who will give you a professional opinion and an idea of what you should be paying for the unit.
Remember buy carefully and happy trimming.

Chainsaw Reviews - Are They Helpful Or Confusing?
Checking chainsaw reviews is a natural thing to do when you are in the market for a new saw.
This article is designed for new users with little experience in chainsaw use and looking for a guide which will direct them in the right direction.
The first thing to consider when buying a chainsaw is whether there is an after sales service available following the purchase. Buying a saw online or a budget model at a discount store is fine but be warned, if there is no course for follow up service then be wary.
Reading chainsaw reviews can help you a lot in tracking down a machine suited for your intended use. They can also leave a prospective buyer feeling a little confused.
Why?
Chainsaw reviews are published with good intentions and are a fantastic resource to be able to turn to particularly online however, unless you really understand anything about chainsaws, then they can present the reader with more questions than when they started to scan the review.
In the chainsaw world lies great loyalty among users; you have Stihl fans and Husqvarna fans. Then there are those who love the Echo brand and others who swear by Poulan models. In the end, a novice is torn many different ways and left confused and bewildered.
Take A First Hand Look
For relative rookie saw users, going to a dealer's showroom and actually handling a chainsaw is a number one priority. Here are four things you'll want from a chainsaw:
- Good design
- Good center of gravity
- Strong safety features
- Light and powerful
These are basically standard features on any saw today but unless you have a machine in your hands and give it a quick test run then you are "buying blind."
So as far as chainsaw reviews are concerned, yes, read them but always see and handle a chainsaw before you buy. If you are still not sure whether it's the machine for you join a couple of online forums and pose the question..."I'm am a first time chainsaw user etc. etc..."
By mentioning the make and brand of the machine you're interested in and the level of use you intend for it, you'll find you're likely to get a much better level of chainsaw review from other members in their response. And most of them will be very experienced or professional lumberjacks.
