My favourite is one of my Jonsered 590's. Either one. They just fit me and have thick, fat power (for a 50cc). They also handle nicely, are easy to work on, and are pretty to look at. It's a jonsered thing (even though they are Partners).
unfortunately, they are semi-retired at this point as I seem to use other saws more often.

Thats a tough question.
The logical answer is my 562xp, I tend to grab that saw most of the time, the second nod goes to my 044 arctic, that saw is nasty and light.
But even though I don't use it much I'm going to say my 394xp is my favorite saw. That saw is so angry trees start falling just by me firing it up.

Or maybe my 2152. It's a Jonsered for real. And it's very pretty too.
wait a minute! It's not really a Jonsered either!
but it's still pretty. And a pleasure to run.
I don't own any real Jonsered saws, but I sure like my 3 fakes.

I bought a truck on Vancouver Island a few years ago and drove it back to Ontario. I stayed overnight in Kamloops and it is a nice place. For a guy that has lived his entire life in Ontario, driving from Vancouver to Regina was awe inspiring.We get 12 inches per year mostly sno.

Those are all legit jonsered to me, just not jonsereds.Or maybe my 2152. It's a Jonsered for real. And it's very pretty too.

I like the 2152 as well as the cousins the 353, nice little firewood saw, also as your other a fairly wide power band compared to the pro versions which makes them cut very close to the pro versions. The 2152/353 and 2159/359 were way under rated saws.
I tried, but it's like kids... no favs! I .png "Love :heart:")
all mine the same!

My favourite is my Husqvarna 246. I think it comes pretty close to perfection for my use.

PM700 right now. Just found a 28" NOS Mac bar I'm gonna try with a loop of Stihl skip tooth.
Havent finished the 7-10A I got out of the junk pile yet, but that one may be a favorite soon. Still love the 1010S with the 18" bar for medium duty.

Sorry for the glitch.
a ported 266 is my all time favorite
same size and weight as most 60cc saws.
but much more capable
has a 24" but this one will pull a 28"
i have a 268 and 272 at zoo city getting ported.
have to wait and see if one of those will be my new favorite.

What’s interesting to me is how popular the 266 is, but it is essentially the same chassis as the 268 and 272.
When discussing the 3-series, the 362 is a bastard, the 365 is ignored, and everyone wants a 372 or 372XPW 75cc. Essentially the biggest cylinder power plant is the most desirable.
Yet when discussing the 2-series, the 266 with its 2-part ignition and smaller cylinder is often remembered more favorably than its larger brothers.
