[HiOctane]

They are both same saw,diff color .They run great,reliable ,easy to maintain and not expensive for their cc size.

 

[climber1423]

Ya thats a great saw. Once you open the muffler a litte bit she'll scream. But ya same as a husky but cheaper.

[donnyman]

Hey wood ,hows things in kingston.And yes johnred are more $$s here than the huskys.And red and black does catch the eye much quicker the orange.Sharp lookin saws those johnys.Don.

I`ve got a 2159 with heated handles and carb, cuts very well and as HiOctane pointed out, they are fairly priced for their displacement and performance. As pretty as the 2159 is compared to my 359 and 357xp, that darned straight across handlebar leaves alot to be desired. It feels totally awkward after running a Husky. It`s a shame that Jonsered would stick with this in lieu of ergonomics on an otherwise fine saw.

Down here in Nova Scotia the Jonsered is $20.00 less than the Husky. The 2159/359's outsell the 2156/357 10 to 1.

I`d like a 2156 because I don`t know anyone else who has one. Some miniscule element of coolness to that.

The Jonsered "Bag it and Drag it" promo should be running, might have to look into getting one.
