Service life of 2000 hours, that would last two homeowners a lifetime.

The 361 must be the best. Hell, we got husky guys defending it, LOL.

It just is the perfect allround saw, at a lot of cutting sites, like most of mine - and there really aren't any serious competition in the 60cc class these days..
..the 357xp could have been, if it had an inboard clutch and a tad more ccs - but it doesn't. - and the 262xp is discontinued, and have more weaknesses, except for the ccs......

It is the perfect all around saw. Plenty of tree companies around here use them and have for years.

this is what i have been saying. the 361 is the pefect homeownersaw. it does little for most pros, just not the right size for the job.
$600 LoL!
the saw does not live up to the hype stock.
What you have to say around here doesn't matter anyway. Your lack of knowledge is known.
Lot of pro's around here run the 361 and have for many years. Very reliable and effective for the tree work that they do. We don't have the same size trees as they do in other parts so not much need for anything larger.
Learn something before you do any bashing again. Get's old after awhile.
Almost forgot. You are just another Wanabe.

Me too, the 361 is a bit small. Pefect, uhhh.....whatever. Best climbing saw-020/200, fact. On the ground, each to his own. I prefer Huskies, XPs of course.

What saws are you referring to...to my knowledge the 357 is priced comparable to the 361 if not higher.

The reason the 361 is so well liked is that it is perfect for serious firewood cutters, and that not all tree companies have the need for a 460 or 660 size saw, although many have them too. I watched Westar energy's tree people cleaning up after the ice storm that hit the midwest in early december, and saw a LOT of 361's as well as 192 and 200t's.

There is no comp for a 361, unless we are talking about a 036/360.
