I went with a Husky 345.... Seemed like all the saw he will ever need

to spend much more than that. *


I have one of those. *Don't worry about the flimsy choke button, it's tougher
than it looks. *Mine is still going strong after 5 years.


After the choke button breaks off, it's not so flimsy. *It breaks off
flush with the case, leaving a little stub. *Mine is still going strong
after 15 years. *I just pry the choke out with a fingernail
