And unfortunately costs nearly double!
Yes it is, but you only live once, so do it right when you can.

I chose the 211 over the 200 due to price. If the funds get better, a 200 will be on my list.![]()
nice. that 211 sure ate it up quick. damn good saw.
How about vibration? How does the 200 and 211 compare?
I am considering a 200 because it is so much lighter than the 211 (to run with a carving bar). 211 sounds like a real bargain, though.
My new 339xp is very smooth, although like I posted in another thread I can't get it to behave well in terms of idling and response. So far it is not fun to run, and it has me thinking about a 200 again (never run one).

Great informative thread Gary
I know noise bothers you, 200 with screen and holder out is loud and
muffler is to right rear of saw. I can't see 211 even after broken in
ever rev as quick or haveing torque the 200 has. 211 will beat 200
cutting fries though![]()
Are you saying the 200 has more torque?
Is the 211 cutting noodles better because it clears better?
If there is a replacement for the 200 coming (at the same price point) I wonder what it would be like.
All that being said you have to admit that for a homeowner saw the 211 is very impressive and almost has a wow factor for a cheap a$$ homeowner saw. As i've said before mine was a joke situation when I bought it but quickly went to a let's see how long it lasts to I can't believe it's still running thing. In fact if you haven't run one in person the video sound is dead on that they almost sound muff modded.
Muffler is mod in video......I wasn't going to but I did.
