This is a a question that should not have a definitive, stead fast, blanket answer.
If you lived in a very rural area and had a Husqvarna dealer in your town and nothing else for hundreds of miles well then when in Rome do as the romans. Mail ordering saw parts is not always easy, many companies have restrictions on internet parts sales and you need dealer support to get equipment running.
Also the owners saw experience level, and expectations can dictate a pro saw purchase vs a farm/homeowner grade purchase. Is this the type of person that has a buy once cry once mentality and have the budget to support a nicer piece of equipment?
What type of wood are they going to work with 90% of the time, it's not worth buying a huge or small saw if your bread and butter cutting is say 15"ish timber I would think you a mid size saw kinda guy.
I feel like with all the smart brains and experience around here we could creat a short online questioner that would generate a saw recommendation based upon:
Do you have saw experience? If so how many years?
What is your budget?
How much wood do you expect to cut annually?
What is the average size of the wood you will be cutting?
What dealers do you have within a 30 minute radius of your home or work?
What's your favorite color?
*disclaimer: our lawyers wanted us to inform you chainsaw addiction is a real thing and you most likely will own more than one saw.
Trying to have a little fun here, but I hope my message is that the real answer is it just depends on a few more questions that "best saw". Could you answer best truck, or best gun, or best meal with asking more questions first.
