General Comments

I am a woman and do not use the HUSQVARNA 141 chainsaw equipment personally, but I bought the saw. Having said that I do write for my husband and son, both having worked in the woods using heavier Husqvarna (Husky) and Stihl equipment. They have cussed this model 141 I bought at Lowe's. No power, lousy adjustment and poor oiler. Five hours use of the saw, the bar and chain were hot, and smoking and seemed to not be getting enough oil. Repair shop time. I took it in! I was told this is a saw built specifically for Lowe's/Sears specifications for the 'sometime' homeowner user to keep the cost down and competitive for them. I was told it would work well if 'not' pushed. No down pressure applied by the user as to cut butter, just lightly hold the saw, use patience, let the saw do the work and it will work well. My guys didn't like to hear that, but tried and amazingly it is doing the job, but slower. Any applied downward pressure and it binds and impeded performance, causing over heating. But it's life expectancy will be shorter and when it goes I've learned my lesson. I will do my homework and go to a heavier model Mid-Range saw with more power and features, because when they (husband and son) want to cut wood they want to get the job done without time wasting patience.

    I was thinking of buying this saw, now I know exactly what it is designed for I will think again.

    I agree because it is an honest description of this saw and all it's faults.
