Wow, I still can't wipe the smile off my face!
Gentlemen,this my first post on Arborsite. However, I've spent many hours reading your recommendations on different saws.
Well today I took my new Jonsered 2159 to woods to give it test run. I looked long and hard at the 361 pro as well, but for $150 more I just couldn't see the additional value.
Yep, I'm still smiling right now! I cut about cord and half of red oak, birch, white ash, basswood and maple today. A couple of comments....I was surprise, it seemed like a miser on fuel compared to my wood boss. Also, the power with a 18" bar is great, glides right through everything with no hestitation. as always when I got back in the shop I lifted the hood to see how effective the turbo works.....essentially no saw dust at all inside the housing, the filter was clean! I still blew it out with the air gun, but the turbo definetly ejects the saw dust. I know my Orange one and white has to be cleaned out after every use.
I thought of a new slogan today while taking a short break in the woods.....
Jonsered....born and bred to rip and shred (make a good t-shirt)!
Anyhow just wanted to say thanks to the membership for helping me make a final purchase decision. Take care...John
