I love this thing! I have a 20" Husky Rancher that is great for big jobs, but heavy for limbing a downed tree. Although there are probably plenty of 60 yr olds out there who could run the Rancher all day, I'm not one of them. We live on 7 ac and have a dozen large dead ash trees (Emerald Ash Borer) as well as others that constantly need processing. I'm definitely not a commercial user, but likely saw allot more trees than the average homeowner. So it was worth it to buy something better than big box store Poulans or Craftsman. Not that there is anything wrong with those for somewhat lighter use, but neither of my Poulans (20", 16") are built like the Husky's or are as easy to maintain; the chains on both of mine have to be tightened regularly during even moderate use.
Think about it, how many branches from a downed tree require a 20" or even 16" saw to process? The 12" T435 is light and can be used one-handed (not recommended for safety reasons!) for limbing off the small stuff. I use it WAY more than the Rancher. My 30 yr old manly-man son was like, "That's okay, I'll use the 20"; until we were at it all day limbing and also cutting smaller trunks...

Amazon Customer: I already owned a 455 Rancher and although it is an incredible heavy duty chainsaw ideal for big jobs, it is heavy for extended use. Like limbing cedar trees to turn them into fence posts. The T435 ROCKS for this. It is very light but has plenty of power to rip through limbs and small to medium (up to 14 inches) trunks. It also starts very easy. I can limb trees with this all day long where I used to be worn out after an hour or two using my 455 to do the same thing

Moby: Wow what a nice little saw! I am a part time park warden taking care of two thousand acres of open space land. when I have to walk in a mile to cut a downed limb or a small tree this is the saw I take with me. Its light and easy to carry. starts perfect every time. Its very dependable and has plenty of power for a little saw. Made in Sweden better quality than the made in China echo.

Jerry Counts: This little beast makes short work of small tree limbs in fencerows and earns its keep! I put it to work the day after it arrived on my doorstep. A bit thirsty on fuel at first, but this has tempered off as it's broken in. This is my third Husqvarna saw. Keep the chain tensioned correctly and sharp,and it will do well for you .The clamshell filter cover looks a bit flimsy, but has held up OK. the 7 lbs make it easy to drag through the woods. I originally was after a 6.5 lb Echo CS271 (1 lb less weight, but also less powerful) , but no one around here(dealer or Home Depot) would order it, even when I'm standing there with cash in my hand. Crazy, eh? Anyway, I think this has turned out to be a better choice after all.

Norberto Lozada Jr.: I do not work commercially as an arborist, however I put this saw through some pretty heavy work. I use it in a bucket truck and while climbing and also to cut fire wood. It works very good for me. My only complaint is the bar oiler seems to loosen up often even after many adjustments and cleaning. Its a great saw for its intended purposes.
I don't suggest anyone who is not familiar with top handle saws to buy a top handle. If you do not know their purpose do not buy one.
