Anyone collecting Jonsered saws?

[svk]

I am an orange guy at heart but have been thinking about picking up a Johnny or two before they go away. Anyone else having the same thoughts?

I love me some Jonsered/s!

Nope, I like the brand but there is no future for JRed except cheap models.
I've only got one JRed left myself, no chrise

Thank Husqvarna for another great saw company's death.

They'll buy Stihl next to build Poulans.

I was going to sell my 2186 but may as well hold on to it. Maybe a 2260 or 2253 may find it's way home too.

I've got one left.




Yes, I have a chain for it... and it runs as good as it looks.

 

[Kensie1988]

I’ve though about getting me a 2253 myself, but most of my love for jonsered is for the mid 80’s and earlier models! Especially the old Jonsereds before the removed the “s”!

I gotts a couple......or so....they died once before anyway.....

When was this period of death you speak of? I don’t know enough about Jonsereds history unfortunately to know when this took place.

 

[Cantdog]

Early 80's when they lost their "S"........

 

[Kensie1988]

Ahh gotcha, that makes sense.

 

[Kensie1988]

What happened exactly? Elux shut them down then bring them back without the “S”?

its always cool to keep them Steve, but on a long run you have to expect that all them red parts won't exist.
Them JRed's are doing the same in Norway, no dealer networks gone sell them, to many classy JRed dealers swapping out JRed for Husky, and they refuse to do the waranty work for JRed.
As said earlier, we see the death of JRed as a quality brand..

Luckily for me, I love them Husky front handle bar!

 

[bulletpruf]

Yep. But nothing very recent...

 

[Big Block]

I'm about to end up with 3. I'd love to have a 2188.

Just bought this bad boy and a new 20" power match bar.

Should come up like new with a good deep clean

Only jonsereds

 

[Timber1972]

That is just like mine. I have been using for 18 years and still going strong. Great falling saw. You will love it!

Got any heated 2253 or 2260's floating around over there before they're all gone
