Good Points: Economical price. Parts are easy to find when needing replacement.

Bad Points: No problems yet.

General comments: Bought my Poulan PPB3416 at Canadian Tire. Always fires up right away and have taken many trees/branches and never had any trouble with it. Just like any other equipment, if maintained and used properly, it works great.

The Poulan Saw has plenty of power. Excellent for cutting limbs!

I ended up using the handsaw instead of the Poulan 3416 16, I am a female and thought it was a great buy. The first time my son used it and after many starter times it finaly was runing long enough to do the job. the second time i did not get to started at all and started to scream. the thirt time i used it started but the chain came off as soon as i started eventhough i know how to keep the chain on. anyhow. i am frustrated and i have 17 trees to care for . My friend came over and he cliped the ...

The Poulan 3416 16 is an excellent saw for the price. Only bad point is you can just flat wear them out but it takes many many trees. I tend to use them on jobs that are too big for them, but they can flat cut anything. Would have bought two brand new when i got my original one if I could do it over.

I had two Poulans which I took to settle a debt, one was the Poulan 3416 16. I'd have felt better about the debt if it had gone unresolved. I scavenged one saw to keep the other one in some semblance of running order, but before long it wasn't worth even that effort. In the end, the "working" saw was stolen from me, and I hope the person who stole it tried to use it rather than just sell it: if he did, he got what he deserved.

This Poulan 3416 was purchased as a refurbished unit from Princess Auto. It is a piece of rubbish - no fault of Princes - a good company. I have spent more time trying to make it run or keep it running than using it. The odd time it runs like a Swiss Watch and the next time it's useless. The only way to get it to run is with the fast "idle" setting "on" where it may then start but "idle" too fast, which engages the centrifugal clutch and chain - not very safe to climb a ladder to limb a tree ...

The Poulan 3416 16 chainsaw is absolute junk. Spend more for a quality product like Stihl, or borrow a friends.

My only chainsaw experience was 15 years ago and I had problems with this Poulan 3416 16 saw. When I got a friend over here, I saw what this little saw can do. We took down two Sweet Gums and two Dutch Elms, all with a base of ten to fifteen inches. This saw was a real trooper all the way through. In the hands of someone with experience, this saw can be a real asset for the homeowner.

Purchased the Poulan 3416 16 yesterday for 150$ CDN bucks. I just finished to cut to 30 inches bases of trees, worked very fine, no hassle except the frequent chain adjustment, but it's normal for a brand new chainsaw.

Definitively a great buy for the price, but this chainsaw is not for "pro" or hard job's but perfect for home work.

Poulan 3416 16 was a cheap price but very difficult to start. Often conks out or gets stuck in wood. This is one of the worst purchases I've ever made. Pay more and get something better.

The Poulan saw might be OK if all you do is trim.
