I don't cut a lot of wood, or fell many trees these days........but when I do, I use an Echo CS-400. Bulletproof, and a cutting machine.

I have an Echo 550 and it is an awesome saw- probably 20 years old though and is top quality. Compares to a Stihl 440 in size. I have had three Echo line trimmers in the past 5 years. The first one was awesome until it was stolen out of my garage. The last two got thrown in the trash after 2-3 tanks of fuel. Garbage carbs on them. Not sure what line trimmer to get now.
I work for a tree company and we run a but load of Stihls up to the 660s. They all break down quite a bit when you have idiots using them. We had one Husky- it was a great big SOB with a 32" bar but it was stolen off a truck.
I would be very suspect of the new Echos myself due to my bad luck with the new line trimmers.
