Owner feedback
“Advantages: The saw is excellent, the price is particularly pleasing and affordable when buying and now, three years later, it is an ideal tool for farming and for the home.
Cons: There are many fakes for it both in stores and in the gear markets. I recommend buying only from trusted stores.
The controls are very comfortable, the saw is light in weight, if for some reason you have to work with chainsaws other than the stihl 170, then that is very unusual.”
