Small saw needed--Stihl MS210?

[Rudy M.]

I have two other bigger saws and need a smaller, lighter saw for making deer hunting shooting lanes and dirt bike trails and general trim around the house. MS210 fit the bill? Pros or cons about this saw?

Bought my son a 210 three years ago. He likes it and it has been a solid performer. But the reality is that both the 210 and 230 are filling a very narrow slots in the Stihl line up that in all truthfulness don't need to be filled. A 170 will probably due the same job for your needs and costs a C note less in most stores or a 250 will cut a whole lot more for only $40 more.

MS210 is nice for that. In fact, that little bugger will do alot more when you need it to! Nice and light for carrying around the woods and you will get alot of trimming done on a tank of fuel. ( carrying saw around the woods is easy, carrying saw, mix, and oil is not )

It's the most popular saw with landscapers out here.
