Very easy to start
Powerful
Very low vibration
Chain replacement on sprocket could be a little easier.
The Husqvarna 455 Rancher chainsaw is great value for the Money. The 455 has a lot of enhancements and is a heavy duty saw. The starting system works very well when cold, hot, or even flooded (just hold the throttle fully down for 1 - 2 pulls). Very strong motor and fast cut. This saw uses at a minimum 89 Octane, but I use 91 - 93. Excellent support online from the Manufacturer. You can get a parts manual with a diagram and part number for every single nut and bolt on their web site. Parts are readily available from many sources. This is my first Husqvarna product, but certainly not my last. You may pay just a bit more than the "Econo" saws, but if you take time to compare features, it's worth every extra dollar.
