Husqvarna saw is quite famous. they just don't do marketing like Stihl.
This has nothing to do with the saw, I was really turned off by their 4Mix engines, they have so much problem with that engine due to the design where old oil collected in somewhere and cause problems. Maybe they change it now, that was like 10 years ago. Stihl had to come out with their special synthetic oil for the engine. People had to use that or Amsoil, or else, you kill the engine sooner or later. Shindaiwa has the similar type 4 cycle engine using mixed fuel/oil, they don't have that problem at all.
For that reason, I own Maruyama, Echo, Honda and Shindaiwa, never bought a Stihl. Another thing is Stihl only sell in dealer, they are more expensive. I bought most of my stuffs on line, cheaper......................And don't buy into dealer service. Don't trust warranty. Warranty doesn't cover and fuel and carburetor problem, good luck in arguing with the dealers. My Honda trimmer failed within 3 months, I brought it in thinking they would take care of it. NO!!! came back with a bill of $150. The carb failed, they said it was bad gas.......the usual reason they use to void your warranty. I told them it wasn't, we got into big arguement. Finally they wave the labor and charged me $75. I took the old carb back, I took it apart, there was metar fragment inside the carb stuck in the diaphragm. It was a defect.
You talk to lawn site, there are enough dealers there keep saying you are always at fault.......................
Bottom line, my advice, DO NOT LOOK AT DEALER WARRANTY, get the good professional ones as cheap as possible and take your chance. Even I have all the expensive stuffs, one service is going to be a big chunk of the cost of the piece. For defect like my Honda, you might have better luck buying from big place like Sears and you can go and argue and they might exchange for you. Not a chance in the small dealers as they will argue with you to death.
