As a certified Stihl mechanic for a very long time , I can tell you the new saws a not even close in build quality like the older ones.

@pdevonport7266 3 месяца назад

Yes, they've made it more chuck away than ever before so congratulations Stihl for making another disposable chainsaw.

@johncaster8961 Месяц назад

@@pdevonport7266 what brand do you suggest? I still always hold stihl in high regard as I feel that all brands are equally lowering standards of quality and not exclusively stihl.

@mikeraftis6332 Месяц назад

I like the looks of these new saws. They need to be light as the previous models and have same or more hp. Which they don't. That said a muffler mod might help slightly.

@christopher.96 26 дней назад

The consumer grade saws and really everything now are just garbage. At this point just buy the pro saws.

The 180 was better and easier to service than the 181 and now the 181 is better and easier to service than the 182. I have been a Stihl Master Wrench technician for over 20 years.

My STIHL 021 is still going. Looking at the MS182 as a backup. Thoughts? Let's get cooking.

@em4703 20 дней назад

They're both as easy to service, and both are just as frustrating to take completely apart and repair. So nothing new for the "homeowner" line, positive or negative.

@soren00024 4 месяца назад

ive had one of these 212s for probably 2 almost 3 months. Its been an awesome saw for what I've needed. I've been clearing trails for my dirtbike and it has no issues cutting through some pretty big size trees. I have been extremely happy with it

@derrasenmaher9730 5 месяцев назад

I own a 162 and 170. The quality of the build in material is not that bad but you could feel a difference if you ask me. Also I am pretty sure that the 170 will outlast the 162 when it comes to the engine. But I will get an MS 212 next fall to replace my old 211 and we will see how that one is. Best saws that Stihl ever made was everything with an „0“ in Front, like 017, 024, 026… and so on. Anyways I like this saws alot. The small saws we use for Tree care and small firewood jobs because these are so light and got enough power for their size. For the larger jobs we got Stihl, Husqvarna and Dolmar Professional saws in any size. Right Tool for the right Job. As long aus you take care of the stuff they will last a long long time.

@MachineryNation 5 месяцев назад

Thanks mate, I don’t believe the engines between the 017, 170 and 162 are all that different to be fair. The 212 is by far the greatest improvement on the 211 out of the range of new saws.

@jameswilson9142 5 месяцев назад

Watched several videos from USA showing the differences, all the videos showed the ms170 was more powerful than ms162 as well as being cheaper and are still available. The chain tensioner on ms170 ca be changed to side tensioning with a cheap kit available on internet and has stihl parts. Great videos keep it up.

@MachineryNation 5 месяцев назад

The MS170 will phase out very soon if not already, they have in the UK. I have watched a few video comparisons, but not where they have used two brand new saws, the 170 was always one that had been run in at least against a new 162. I don’t recon that there is much between them.

@Swearengen1980 5 месяцев назад

EPA and environmental virtue signaling BS means regulations have made all chainsaws subpar compared to older saws IMO, even if the air filters are old school or it requires a little more maintenance.

@interviewera3602 4 месяца назад

I bought sthil ms 180 and it refused to start after few minutes of use. When I took it to my local dealer , he figured out that it was a faulty carburetor. Mine chainsaw is made in china and I am skeptical about its quality since.

@adelarsen9776 3 месяца назад

Here's what I learned from this video - "From the MS 231 upwards they are made in Stuttgart in Germany and Virginia Beach in the States. The components are made all over the world. Chains in Switzerland. Cylinders in Brazil. Carbs in China and magnesium crack cases in the Nordics". Stihl chainsaw serial numbers by country manufacture are : 1 is Germany, 2 and 5 is USA, 4 is Austria, 8 is China and 3 is Brazil. And my Deutz tractor is still better than your tractor.

@6900pilot 5 месяцев назад

I went pro simply because I have a lot of cutting and they are built in Germany, 500i is a fantastic saw delighted with it, do you know if stihl use mahle pistons all the timel?

@@MachineryNation that is good to know. I should have said I was from the USA. I just stripped down an MS 250. Rebuilding it this week. I enjoyed the video. I am an Arborist, using chainsaw since the 70's when your 3 foot hand saw was more reliable. We would sometimes toss the chainsaw out of the tree to let the groundman start it, they were all metal then. Thank You

@jamesmckiernan3066 5 месяцев назад

My mechanic works in a timber yard as the main fitter/mechanic. For years they were using stihl chainsaws and almost every week one would destroy the gear boxes and was rebuilding them all the time, one they changed to husqvarna they never get any issues, so by that would the husqvarna chainsaws not be the better purchase?

No they are not as good as they used to be. My family has used them since the early 80 s . The old model’s would not die they got dropped out of trees or ran over. The only reason they got new ones. With every newer model it went down hill compared to the older ones.

Shame you think that dude, for a domestic saw, we think they are great.

@nightgoggles9931 3 месяца назад

@@MachineryNationThey are great, and they’ve got worse and worse from what they were. Both are true. The saws are significantly less durable since switching to an all plastic body, emphasizing fuel use, and switching model numbers from 025 to 250. These saws will last MAYBE half as long as saws from this same brand 20-30 yrs prior

@edwindude9893 5 месяцев назад

Stihl have always had better muffler fitting than Husqvarna in the older models like the 372xp the muffler fitting was a joke.

@MachineryNation 5 месяцев назад

Muffler fittings can be a pain. I always thought the better ones were clamped rather than threaded into the cylinder.

New Stihls suck. Overpriced, underpowered, and poorly constructed. Stihl is going in the wrong direction. Made cheaper and costing the customer more money. Glad I got rid of my Stihl saws. Best decision I ever made.

@94SexyStang 5 месяцев назад

husqvarna is worse, nothing but gimmicks and changing things constantly, plastics look like shit.

@CutterCH 5 месяцев назад

@94SexyStang Stihl has more bs gimmicks than any brand. Husqvarna has their shit together. Stihl has been slowly dying for the past 20 years. Their name used to mean something great. Now, it means overpriced cheaply made junk. Their quality is getting worse and worse. Husqvarna has been constantly good. Stihl sales are at an all-time low while Husqvarna is much higher. Stihl used to be #1. Not anymore. They're not even #2 or #3. We all saw this coming over a decade ago, but Stihl fan boys were in denial. I've watched the sales numbers from the top brands. I love when the end of the year numbers come out. Stihls numbers have been dropping big time over the past 9 years. Meanwhile, Husqvarna, Echo, RedMax, and Poulan have been climbing. Especially Husqvarna and Echo. Stihl hasn't been #1 in years.
