Craftsman 38cc 16&#34 Gas Chain Saw —

This chainsaw started on the second pull right out of the box and once it was warmed up it idled smooth and did not shut off constantly like some other chainsaws that I have used. It was quiet and did not vibrate during cutting. The self oiling chain and tooless chain adjustment make operating very easy. I ran it for about two hours non-stop and never had a single issue with any aspect of the saw.

It is a good sized saw at 16" and relatively light weight for use around the house and a great value at it's price point.
