I have been here for a while and have done a lot of reading and not much posting. Anyway, I have read a lot of slamming of the MS290, and I don't really know why. I have a 290 with a 20" bar and have really been happy with it. I mostly have been cutting oak, maple, locust, cherry, and recently cut up a walnut tree that fell over. I am a landowner, not a professional, and althought the saw doesn't get used every day for hours, it gets it fair share of use and I have had no problems and I feel it has plenty of power for the kind of wood I cut. So far this year I have cut up about 10 cord or firewood and done a lot of clearing and cleanup around the property. I really do enjoy this site and have gotten a lot of information from it and a few laughs too.
