Today's Husqys are no match for ones from the 80s and 70s. They're okay for occasional to moderate use, but if you're a serious chainsaw user, spend the extra money for a Stihl.

Low displacement is probably only good for smaller work but in general I have to disagree, love my Husq saws and they are used regularly but are 45cc+
