homelite 450 pros/cons?

[hoeyrd2110]

i have a lead on a 450 for a decent price and i really need a saw that can pull a 28" or 32" bar. my 660 echo is nice at 24" but i need bigger. any opinions on the homie 450? i've never worked on one or ran one but it's 74cc and thats 10cc's bigger than what i got. should i pull the trigger or wait and find a different 70+cc saw. keep in mind i'm just doing firewood

I would say go with it I dont have a 450 but I have a 550 and it cuts great and fast.550 is only 10 or so more cc so ithink the 450 would handle what u want

28" is all I would go for
