Strong saw..lots of torqe..vendor is excellent
Have not used parts yet but the cost and timing of delivery was spot on. Echo parts less expensive through SS than Chinese parts from Amazon.
We needed an upgrade in cutting capability to help continue clearing/cleaning up after Helene had at WNC. I am no arborist and of course it is hard to truly rate a chainsaw after such short-term use, but the Echo 590 has handled what’s been asked of it so far. Easy to start with good power and solid, sturdy parts.
I would also like to thank the folks at Saw Suppliers for getting the saw to my front door so quickly, throwing in a couple of bottles of oil, and including some kind, hand-written words with my order. I will definitely be a return customer and steer others in their direction. Thanks y’all
Purchased this back in 2014 and its been a great primary saw over the years. Other than plugs, filter (still original) no trouble. Only used Red Armor and fresh 89 octane. Run to empty for storage. Saw so good I decided to purchase another one for backup and compatibility with various bars 20inch through 36inch. Pulls good with sharp chains. A clear winner in my opinion!
Quick shipping and great packaging of all items in one box. I was actually surprised how small the box was. Couldn't believe everything I ordered was in that box but it was. Saw is incredibly small and nibble. I chose a 14" bar based on previous experience with a Stihl top handle that I had borrowed from a buddy. With that bar length, the saw is slightly nose heavy but I am fine with that. I also chose the Oregon Nano bar/chain combination based on research that indicated the stock bar and chain could be improved. The last item to mention is the tool for removing the limiter caps. I definitely wanted to be able to fully adjust carb setting for max performance and reliability. The saw started right up on the 3rd pull after priming and ran pretty decent. I have made slight adjustments to both low and high side screws. The overall feel of the saw is more like a toy but I am here to tell you, it's definitely a serious saw. Being closer to 60 years of age than 30, this saw is nice from a weight standpoint. At the end of the day I am not completely tired out from handling a saw all day. A real bonus! The Nano bar and chain combo seem to work great. Hot knife through butter on both soft and hard woods. So far I have mainly used it for limbing on the ground and a little work in a bucket. Both scenarios it has worked great!! Handles like a dream. Plenty of power. This is exactly what I've been looking for. Saw Suppliers has been great to work with and have had some communication from Jess that has been great. Don't hesitate to make a purchase from this company. I wasn't sure about buying a saw online but Saw Suppliers made the process great.
