Apparently, OP isn't coming back with more info.

If you need or want a prosumer or above saw then Husky are Stihl are really the only answers. Just pick the Rancher or Farm boss that meets your needs and budget.

If you look at pro arborists and timber felling companies you will see each has their favorite but overall there will be a near 50/50 split. Neither make perfect saws but overall they most make the best saws in the prosumer and pro categories. Outside that it is a Ford vs Chevy argument.

If you don't need or want this level of saw there are tons of options in both electric and gas.

I have Stihl MS 250 and MS 180. Use the 180 a lot more. I don't really use a lot of firewood and mostly use it for trimming limbs, etc.

Use the premix fuel or go ahead and buy a replacement carb of Amazon. Can usually get carb, air filter and spark plug for $12-15.

If you want to go battery, look at the Ego 56v. Have several pieces of their equipment and want to add the chainsaw.
