I'm looking for a new chainsaw. I'll only be using it around the house to clear up storm damage & some downed trees that are long overdue for some attention. I'm a little partial to Stihl products since I have had good luck with my leaf blower and weedeater (both Stihl). But, the more I read the more I think I need to look at some other brands. I'd like to stick to either Stihl, Echo, or Husqvarna.
Betweeen those 3 brands, which would you go with? I've narrowed my Stihl selection to an MS251 based on what the dealer recommended for my uses. What would be the equivalent in the other brands if you didn't go with Stihl?
Also, I'd like to stay under $350, and go with a 16" to 18" bar.
