This is the second chainsaw I have purchased and after 13 months it melted the petrol tank, repaired under warranty after much haggling.

I am a demolition contractor and have owned my Husqvarna 137 for nearly 7 years.

The Husqvarna 137 is a saw that is capable of nearly all types of work (up to and including medium tree felling). Runs well, handles like a dream and is a pleasure to use. If you want an all around saw, this is the best value saw you will find. Easily out performs Stihl every time. (read more)
