There are always allot of claims of "born in the USA" around my neck of the woods, usually FALSE.
I wonder how many "liters of petrol" it runs per hour.

"Made in the USA", could mean "Never Made It To The USA".
But something was lost in the translation.

My question is this. Since they are not even attempting to cover the fact that they are blatant copies, what countries are allowing their import? Seems like even if China won't make them respect patents, other civilized countries would step in and stop them from being sold.

I saw a show last year, and talking with US customs I think, his excuse was they don't have the manpower to check everything???? WTF, I think if the originating place is China, it should be checked or sent back. Look at the huge toy recalls last year from china? Worrisome when you have kids playing with the stuff. You try to be careful on what you buy, sometimes you don't even know where the crap was made, they try their best to hide it.
We keep going to Harbor Freight Tools and buying these insanely cheap and inferior tools. I try to only buy things that have no moving parts. What is scary is that many of the ingredients that go into our food products and prescription drugs (!!!!!) come from China, where there is little or no control over quality or safety.
THE FAULT IS OURS THAT WE ENCOURAGE THIS BY BUYING CHINA-MADE ITEMS. WE ARE ADDICTED TO THE LOW PRICES AND ARE OBLIVIOUS TO THE GUTTING OF OUR ECONOMIC BASE AND IMMINENT SELF-DESTRUCTION. CHINA OWNS A HUGE PORTION OF OUR NATIONAL DEBT. IF AMERICANS STOPPED BUYING THIS STUFF (WHEN POSSIBLE), THE STUFF WOULD EVENTUALLY DISAPPEAR!!!

Has anybody actually bought one of these desasters? I would be very curious to see the build quality under all that poorly stamped plastic. I would also love to hear about the performance.
The old sayin you pay for what you get....You couldnt give me one of them POS saws,,just to haul around with and use as dead weight....I'm a big,,,I mean big Mcculloch old school whor%....I was in my teens when my Dad,,he traded his Pro mac 55 to a new Stihl I about died cause it was a good saw,,but after we used the Stihl 028 we both never would go back cause thats when the mac's went plastic,,and the start of a down fall to a good company and name....To me,,,I think it's a slap in the face with the new Mcculloch's that is out there,,,just junk...My friend bought a Pouland last year and comin from Walmart,,that kinda says it all....I could cut 3 times as much wood with my Dad's old 028 and it being over a 20 year old saw...I hate that cheap crap they are tryin to pass upon us....

If you're gonna get one...better buy 3 or 4...might need the extra parts...LOLOLO
Why? It is the chainsaw equivalent of the Yugo, without the uniqueness.
If we can overcome our addiction to cheap chinajunk, we may be able to continue as an English-speaking nation.

I have a new Chinese generator, i did not buy it ,came with a caravan i bought.
Takes 10 pulls to start it, i changed the spark plug but its still hard to start.
Its just a pile of rubbish, i'm sure the chainsaws would be the same.
Paying $200 for a Chinese saw is false economy but thousands are being sold
in Australia on Ebay
I wonder how many people toss them in the bin after a few months then buy
a decent brand saw?
