I've never seen a Remington Gas Chainsaw so have no idea about them.
I've run lots of old Poulan saws but not in the last 15 years.
I prefer Echo or Sthil so whena friend of mine asked which saw to buy I recommended Echo or Sthil.
He choked on price and found a Remington on line new in the box about 175 bucks.
My instant response was a Poulan 42 ish cc would probably be better than a Remington. However the Remigton RM4216 ( I think) supposedly gets good reviews on Amazon.
Friend said 200 bucks is his limit.
I had an Echo cs310 which is in that range and HATED it. The Echo cs352 is MUCH better IMHO but the extra cash leaves that out.
The choices ( no devatlon) no second guessing, no opinions is Poulan ot Remington
If someone ACTUALLY has real word experience with BOTH of these saws ( we all have opinions, including me) please tell me your experience
I can tell you I think the cs310 was a waste of 200 bucks when just a few more bucks scores a real saw. I can tell you my dealer will not be as quick to reimburse you for a saw you hate that breaks first month. I can tell you Lowes let me return a piece of crap saw after 5 days. I ca tell you Home Depot stood behind a new Riding mower when the engine failed after a month. I can tell you that NOW I NEVER send people to my x dealer but send them to a big box store where I was treated right. I can tell you my x dealer ha lost much business because he could not WARRANTY a 12 dollar plastic chain catcher
Experience beats opinion. Thanks in advance for all who share their experiences. Your advice will be greatly appreciated. Blessings.
