Title: Died After a Few Uses
Review: Purchased December 2009 and started using it Spring 2010. Worked well right out of the box. Good power and features. Used it to take down a small tree and a few other smaller jobs.However, after cleaning and storing for winter, it wouldn't even start for Spring 2011. No idea what's wrong, tried different power source, etc. Based on the number of positive reviews, this may be an anomaly, or it could be hit or miss manufacturing.UPDATE: Spring 2012 - was about to buy another chainsaw and tried to start one last time. Working fine again so I'm updating to four-star (from two). Based on other reviews, it's possible the chain-stop was engaged, but I didn't move it prior to my start attempt so still unknown what issue was.
Is the review positive or negative?
