Bought one two years ago for coppicing willow, hazel and hawthorn. Nice and light so no problem for me whilst bending over the work (I'm 6' 4" and too much weight does my back in when stooped), it's never failed to start and will even deal with the hawthorn without difficulty.
Just bought another so my newly qualified assistant can help. Used appropriately this is a fine saw. It's not meant for slicing up big hardwood logs or felling trees larger than coppice diameters. Using it for what it's designed to do seems to offer a long and reliable life. But it with confidence.
