Hi there, new member here.
I've been shopping for a chainsaw and was considering Efco saws. I know they make saws in Italy, but I was disappointed to see that some of the saws I was considering are made in China.
I emailed the company and they provided a list of which models are made in China and which are made in Italy. I thought people here might be interested in the info.
I give Efco credit for providing such a thorough answer. I'm very interested in the country of origin of most products I buy and occasionally some companies will be a little dodgy when you ask them where a specific product is made.
Here's the email I received from Efco:
