Stihl MS170 VS Echo CS310 and what you should know

Үй жануарлары мен аңдар

My rundown on two homeowner grade chainsaws. The Stihl is the better unit. Cutting firewood for the homestead.

    I just bought my CS310 new from Home Depot for $220 in Ontario. I just use it for brush and trimming

    Yeah i dint mention the Echo will toss the chain quite easily and it's not good

    I have both because I have a lawn business and do some tree trimming, I have plenty of Echo products, but the Stihl handles so much better and has much more power. Great video.

    I will run the echo some more but I can say for sure it is a capable saw.

    Cs-310 has a better chain. Have a look. Great review. I like this test.

    Different chain for sure. The STIHL PICCO Micro mini 3 is a good chain. I find it that regulates the cutting better and doesn't bog the saw as much. less vibration for sure

    I have both of these saws. I’m a little more partial to the echo but both good saws in my book nice video

    I got the echo 310 for my wife. Now I want the Stihl 170 for me. Popular is decent. Obviously not as good as oak, but I like it better than maple. I have some Elm just knocked down by a white oak in a storm, but I have never burned it, but some say it's smoky and hard to split. Thanks for the video. Hunting videos would be cool.

    Stihl has a 1 yr warranty Echo has a 5 yr warranty, finished business. Too close for any other comparisons, both almost the same elsewise, my 1 cent.
