I had a chance to run a friend's new echo cs-600P saw last week. It was brand new. I had my echo cs-670 so I compared it to his cs-600p
Pros: Excellent fit and feels very sturdy. Plastics are high quality.
air filter has the air pre-cleaner feature (like husky)
balances perfect with 20" bar
comes with oregon lpx (.050)chain
low restriction muffler, easy to get to the spark arrestor
Inboard clutch; 7 pin sproket; side chain adjuster
available with outside dawg his had it and it fits over the bar studs, 5 points
Built in winter shutter for carburetor -Walbro carb, stihl tool works on the limiter caps.
Conventional 2 stroke porting -not a strotcharged type
Power: Has as much power as my 670, or seemed to. Faster rev up, unlike any Echo I've used before. Excellent for 59 cc.
Cons: I had a problem using the oil tank cap when the saw was hot, it took me a while to get the threads started , it might have been me though, it was really hot and I had sweat in my eyes the whole time.
The oiler is like the Stihl oilers, it always seems like there's not quite enough oil on the chain, compared to my 670 which oils great.
Resin handlebar-maybe it's lighter but I think it should be aluminum.
Air filter- only one type is available -felt.
We were cutting dead oak trees 18-22 " for firewood, Overall this is a great saw if you can only have one saw. Great job Echo
