Husqvarna 440 chainsaw review
The Husqvarna 440 chainsaw weighs 4.4 kg without accessories. Its two-stroke petrol engine, developed with X-Torq technology, delivers 2.45 hp and contributes to fuel savings (by 20%) and a reduction in exhaust emissions (by up to 70%). It features a centrifugal air cleaning system that extends filter life and an inertia starter with Smart Start system.
The saw has the LowVib® anti-vibration system, which dampens vibrations during operation, and side chain tensioning. The fuel mixture is fed to the carburetor through a primer, and the chain oil is fed automatically, although the feed is not adjustable. The saw can work with guide bars from 33 cm to 46 cm in length and chains are chosen depending on tire selection.

Owner Feedback
Nicholas, 45 years old
I bought this chainsaw at my own risk. The price is significant, but the brand inspires confidence. There was a sad experience with the bison, I decided to trust a well-known brand. I bought a saw in the winter, used it mercilessly – cut logs for firewood, then built a woodshed, removed something from the tree plot … In general, I am happy with the purchase, I do not regret the money spent.
Advantages: comfortable, powerful, excellent cut.
Cons: expensive saw, expensive consumables, but I do not advise saving.
Sergey, 29 years old
Chainsaw of medium power and weight, very comfortable and unpretentious. I sawed it perfectly until I decided to save money and poured “foreign” oil … I almost ruined the engine, but I realized the reason in time and now I only buy Husqvarna engine oil.
Pros: Convenient, efficient.
Disadvantages: the price of saw and oil.
Taras, 41 years old
I worked in public service, so I had to work with a chainsaw like that. Having moved to the village, I realized that I could not do without a saw, so I decided to give preference to an already proven modification. I’ve been using the Husqvarna 440 for the second year, the chainsaw has performed perfectly: sawing logs, cutting boards, felling trees – what more do you need!?
Pros: reliable productive chainsaw.
Cons: no.
