I have read several discussions at different price points, but sometimes it's difficult for someone in the market for a saw to find what is the best value for a saw for xxx dollars. And users have varying differences in experience in maintaining and repairing the equipment. So I would like opinions on what you would consider a great value for a saw at any given price. I would like to offer that the Poulan Pro 5020AV for a new saw at roughly $180 is a rock solid, entry level firewood saw for the non-professional. I had mine for over 4 years and was quite a novice when I got it. And even with my lack of experience, this saw did not let me down. My only issues were dull chains, dirty air filters, and a slight retune after 2 years.
