I just bought a Jonsered2240 for home use and I have a couple people telling me I should have bought a Stihl
I like the Jonsered 2240 because the light weight and power ratings and parts availability/changeability.
On paper it looked good and I have not even started it yet as some people are telling me I should have got the equivalent Stihl.
It seems to me the Jonsered is a fine saw for the average home owner as it took me a long time of research before I bought it. Should I be spending the same money or a little more on a Stihl?
I used to work on small engines and outboards about thirty years ago so doing my own work does not bother me, getting parts does.
I already brought the much cheaper Poulan Pro 18 back and got the Jonsered 224o instead.
I really like the lightweight of this model of Jonsered after packing around big heavy saws at one time.
Any Advice?
Am I wrong in thinking this little saw will do anything a homeowner needs and drop the occasional poplar if needed and last a long time. I got a kick out of all the nylon components in the saw but I suppose that is all saws these days.
Thanks.
