The MS441 is a great 70cc saw. When first introduced there was a lot of concern about how it would compare to the MS440, a long time great saw. Stihl has done their homework, and done it well. The MS441 is one of the better 70cc saws available on the market. It has the power of any other 70cc saw, and smoother than most of the competition. It is slightly heavier than some 70cc saws available, but overall a great contender. If you pick up a 441, then you will not be disappointed.
I do however find it a little large if this is your ONLY saw. Try looking at a MS361 if you only have one saw, it is slightly smaller but better suited for the smaller work (limbing, bucking, etc).
