How much do you want to spend? I have no idea...would love a good used one!

Where are you located? Lex Park

Stihl and Husquavarna are both good I think.

Milts in Hollywood and I think Lowes is carrying Husky now. If not, True value.

Best thing about Milts is you can take your saw in for a tune up and they will show you how to use it and advise you about what size to get.

Might want to get some safety gear too. Gloves, glasses, ear protection, etc.

Pretty small.
Get at least an 18"-20" bar.

It's mostly all about size and power and dollars.
They'll help you figure out what to get.
Maybe this one.

Milts is the best.
Stihl used to build only first class super heavy duty saws in all sizes but now they have some low end models with too much plastic. The best Stihl's cost a bundle but they are by far the best.

Ditto what everyone else said... Milt's is the only place Hubby will buy his "toys".

Try Gardiner Equipment Waldorf next to the Old Wig Wam on Rt 301 S.

Ask for Dean Padgett he will cut you a good deal.
