Owner feedback
“My experience of operating this chainsaw as a direct owner is 6 years.
I can say with confidence that the saw is legendary, and many reviews from my colleagues and acquaintances confirm this. Without going into details, the Stihl 260-ms is the best and most useful tool in the Stihl saw line. Again, this is a personal opinion.
Advantages: Affordable price, great power and performance, perfect power to tire length ratio, light weight.
Disadvantages: Of the sins of this saw, I can only find a loose fit of the clutch locks. However, this does not affect the overall operation and functionality.
