i bought a poulan pro saw about a year ago thought i was getting a good saw a a great price, but the problem was no one told me the saw was built to be disposable use the saw once then throw it away. i cut about 4 cords of wood with the saw then it seamed to stop running after 5 minutes and wouldn't start till it cooled down so i put the saw away for the winter and figured i would have it looked at in the spring spring came and i couldn't get the saw to even start called poulan who gave me 4 places to take it and get the saw repaired the first three places told me they no longer will repair poulan saws under warranty the 4th place said bring it in and well mail it out for you wasted 20 bucks in gas driving to the place so they could mail it out why i couldn't just mail it myself???? who knows.... i wait 2 weeks and get a call from the 4th place they tell me the motor was full of debris and the pistons, carb, and cylinders all needed to be replaced and poulan would not honor the warranty. i never had the air cleaner off so if there was debris in there it had to have been a design flaw with the air intake or perhaps the thing wasn't installed correctly from the factory which in my opinion should be covered. moral of the story never be afraid to buy quality you wont be disappointed. i have a echo chain saw i have owned for 5 years and never changed a plug or filter and it still starts on one to two pulls.

Review 2 for Poulan Pro Gas Chainsaw
Poulan Loyal
,01/25/2010

I've, for years now, owned a single Poulan saw, an 18 inch blade 2450 Woodmaster. I heat my cabin with all wood, and have once used the old Woodmaster to clear cut a solid spruce and birch tree forest of 18 acres out front and 23 acres in back of a nearby property, with out a single major hiccup or day of downtime, rain - shine - or snow, during the almost year long job. This machine appears very similar and I expect this saw will deliver the same years of performance I have experienced from my previous Poulan. My best friend swears by a Stihl, an old 026 Pro model, but it gives him 10 times the headaches of my old 2450 Woodmaster, that I paid less than half of a Stihl for. Poulans have always been good to me, and I will remain loyal to the green machines. Of course you DO have to read and regularly follow the idle mixture adjustments in the manual, etc, but the same goes for a Husky, Echo, Stihl, or any other gas powered equipment for that matter. If you can't handle simple maintenance, then electric might better suit you. Some things I highly recommend is that you use all Oregon Brand Bars, Chains and Oils, and grease the bar sprocket with each tank of gas, use Stabil and Iso-Heet in all your Gas, burn all the gas out of your saw everyday or each time you run it, keep your Carb Adjusted Properly ( a major culprit of non-idling, quick dying or low powered machines), and clean the screen inside the muffler about every 25 hours. If you quickly do a two minute "three pass per tooth" sharpening routine with your file on the chain with each tank of gas, you'll make the saw cut better and since the chain cuts easier through the wood - the engine may last longer too. Change the Air filter every other day or every 10 hours, and keep a good supply of Spare Air Filters, Sharpened Cutting Chains, Spark Plugs, Sprocket Grease, Spare New Bars, & Chain Files on hand. DO NOT USE ANY CHAMPION PLUGS. Use only AC, Bosch, or NGK (If you can find them). I always cut my Bar oil 50%-50% with 5w-30 engine oil in the winter months too, to help it flow better. Hope these tips help someone out there!

Excellent Chainsaw Going To Buy One More Today

I have used the saw for two years on two properties and have sawed up the equivalent of a couple cords of wood. Probably 10 hours of total run time. My main use is to clean up trees uprooted by high winds. So far I have bucked a black locust, a pine, an oak, and a poplar. It is important to keep the oil reservoir filled to reduce the friction on the chain. I just put a new chain on this evening since the old one had dulled. As of this writing, you can get a two-pack of chains at Wal-mart for $25. The saw would not last a day if used for an episode of Ax-Men, but it serves my purposes just fine.

Bought a craftsman 18 inch chain saw to do some tree and brush removal and with in a half a day it actually melted the plastic and seized up returned with out a problem thank God. So I figured I would buy a cheaper saw just to try and found this one on sale. On the first day I felled at least 10 good size trees and cut all of them up returned next day and did more cutting. I just clean when done mix gas properly and keep oiled. For the price you cant go wrong, saw has been used hard for the past 2 months and just keeps preforming great

Not a Bad Saw

Overall this is not a bad saw. First order of bussiness, trash the cheep chains and get a good one. We bought one from an equipment rental store. We had to adjust our carb to get it to idle(which the web site recomends anyway), but now it runs great and cranks up fine. We have cut everything from small trees to larger hard woods and it's doing the job. We clean it up regularly and make sure it always has oil in it. It's a great saw for the price. For the average homeowner, it will do a good job.

For the price this saw would be hard to beat. I cut down 12 cedars that were 8 to 14" inches in diameter before hitting a nail and having to sharpen the blade.

Just bought a second one. The drive gear went bad on the first. Most of the problems I have had were user caused. Chain tension, touching soil and binding the bar. Mostly cut hardwoods and this one lasted 3 years with no major problems till now. Starts easy. And have cut trees from 6 inches to 36 inches down. All in all the saw performed as expected.

I have cut firewood for 15 years. Have had mostly Homelite and Craftsman saws. This Poulan saw has run great right out of the box. Easy starting. If it had a little more power it would be excellent buy. The chain is appox to what Craftsmans are so it doesn't give long life but is acceptable. I think this Poulan is a very good buy for the money spent and for most occasional users is the way to go. If you are in a more demanding need then you really should get more powerful saw and the Poulan would be good for triming.

What a waste of time and money this product is.
Spend a few bucks more and buy something that will actually cut wood without quitting.
I bought one, and it wouldn't even cut half a cord of firewood. I returned it, and bought a real chainsaw.

Bought one of these chainsaws and after about a month had to return it. Nothing I could do would get it to start. I called the 1-800 help number and they said I got a dud, and to exchange it for another. WalMart was great about exchanging it. Now I got another Poulan and it worked great for about 2 months ... now it won't cut very well, overheats and dies in 10 minutes. I obviously need a new chain, but I'm surprised since I've only cut about 8 small trees (10 inch diameter or so).
Overall, I recommend spending more money to get something better. This saw is made cheaply.

I have had nothing but problems with mine. I have only owned it 6 months and cut roughly 4 cords of wood. I have had to replace the bar once, 3 chains, the sprocket twice, and the clutch once. No matter what I do, the sprocket wears out in the first day & the chain dulls. I am not even cutting close to the ground. I own a Stihl that I got from my Grandfather and I will never own anything else. Once this Poulan breaks again, I am returning it to Wal-Mart and demanding my money back. Power is also a joke. It should be maybe a 14-16 inch chainsaw.

Bought this saw and ran for about 15 minutes then overheated. Restarted and ran again for 15 minutes. Then would start but would not stay running, each time you throttled it up the thing would die. Poor product and would not recommend it to my worst enemy! Do NOT waste your maoney on this chainsaw. Spend a lil' more and get something that will run and cut!
