I'm looking at two saws, the Stihl MS 180 C-BE and the MS 210. I'm new to chainsaws but my research and dealer conversations have lead me to one of these two. The 180 has the easy start and easy bar adjustment bells and whistles while the 210 is your basic saw with no extras. The 180 has a 14 inch bar while the 210 has a little bigger engine and a 16 inch bar.
The intended use is light cutting of felled trees for splitting for firewood and light trimming of branches around the house. I'm guessing the max diameter of the felled trees may be up to 16 inches or so (maybe). I'm only intending on cutting a cord (max) per year so I don't think this would even qualify for light use. These saws are the same price at my dealer so the question is:
Small with options or bigger and plain??
Thanks to all for helping me out with my first post!!
