I removed the air filter for cleaning and noticed that quite a bit of dust had gotten into the intake. Of course, if I wanted it for heavy use, I would have gone for a branded one without a second thought. For the money, let’s say it does well.

Purchased at €110.
The first time it gave me quite a bit of trouble to start, but afterwards it starts with at most three pulls.
You need to give it full throttle while pulling the cord and it starts immediately.
During the first two tanks, it had high consumption, but after that the engine settled.
Very powerful, very light; time will tell about its durability.
For its price, a very nice machine

I have used the chainsaw so far for 5 tanks... During this time, I tried not to push it, so that the springs and piston inside the cylinder would break in properly... To start with, the 1/4 chain has not satisfied me. It cuts slower than the 3/8lp... Maybe later I will try to put a clutch drum for 3/8... It is light, with fuel, oil, and bar it reaches 3.1 which does not tire the hand... I don't like the carburetor settings, not that it has a high idle but I will adjust them once I reach 10 tanks of use so I can be sure that now it can work at full capacity

For its price, it is perfect. I used it for olive harvesting along with more expensive machines of the same category and it had nothing to envy. I would like a bit better build quality on the brake because it is a combination of plastic and metal material and it is not very good. Other than that, I would buy it again without a second thought.

With €100 you get a tool that will serve you for amateur use.
It starts a bit hard, high idle that you will adjust along the way.
It looks fake, 3.116 kg its weight full of gasoline and oil, but it gets wild as soon as you rev it, it pleasantly surprised me. After pruning the olive trees, I have to say you need to be careful with the mixing oil (I put extra due to break-in)! If you overdo it, it chokes.
I had difficulty starting it, it does not have easy start, after burning the spark plug with a lighter and struggling for an hour I managed to get it going

I've been trying all day to start it for the first time, but nothing, it got on my nerves, I'll have to take it to a technician to have it adjusted for me, unbelievable!☹️ When I use it, I'll come back with an update.

I'm coming back and if I exclude the above difficulty, which was overcome after a technician adjusted it, the tool works perfectly and you can easily get the job done even on large trees.

It was bought as a gift for an uncle in the village, to cut some wood in the winter for the stove.
The only reason I bought it is because I saw the Easy Start.

No, it does not start easily. The Stihl starts easily, which doesn't even require strength.
This one I had to pull about ten times, and when I returned it, he was surprised and told me it couldn't be because he had used it, etc. He pulled, pulled again, nothing. He starts it, lets it warm up a bit, turns it off, and then pulls again to get it started.

From what little I saw, it had nothing wrong, it's just not good and certainly not the perfect product some of you present it as.
For its price, it's fine and nothing more.

I've had it for 2 years, I've only sharpened the chain...very satisfied...powerful machine, it doesn't get stuck anywhere 10/10

Good strong tool. And very light, I will order another one for my father, for durability we will see

4 stars only because it takes a while to start the first time... Also, mine was working so much at idle that it was spinning the chain.. It definitely needs adjustment and also to adjust the amount of oil it throws on the chain.. Mine was throwing a lot of oil...

I pruned 400 olive trees... All good and hassle-free
Pros:
Power, very lightweight and easy to use
Cons:
It might burn a bit more fuel, and the side handle doesn't seem that "sturdy" (it wobbles a bit)
Neutrals:
It takes exactly 3 pulls to "start" and makes a little more noise than the other Echo pruner I have...(competitor)
Attention***
A black rectangular plastic piece with a "track" that you will find where the blade goes does not play any role. You should not put it in with the blade. It works WITHOUT this!!!
Notes****
1) BEFORE the first use, fill the tanks with oil and mix (ratio of 4 lt gasoline/100+ ml mixing oil) and let it run until it burns it all...to start lubricating the chain.
2) The idle needs adjustment after some cuts - with the screwdriver you adjust the side screw on the.... back large black cover
The product is definitely Vfm... I recommend it (purchase 119€ - 1/3/25)

I got it mainly for pruning olive trees, secondarily for fruit trees and ornamental trees. So far, in the ten days that I have had it, it works flawlessly, effortlessly, and efficiently. There was no need for a spark plug change or readjustment. Just the use of very good quality mixing oil and chain oil. For its price, it is definitely worth the purchase. The only negative for me is the design for the two nuts on the chain cover as well as the way the filter cover closes (clip)

It is wonderful. Powerful and lightweight. Economical and in consumption. Its noise is a bit more pronounced than a similar model of 300+ euro that I have compared it to. I won't say it's better, but I am 100% sure that it is a value for money purchase. Especially at the 100 euro I found it for. I might even get a 2nd one as a backup

I will give it 5 stars, it cuts very well, we mainly use it on cherry trees but it also easily cuts the dry ones, I found it for 108 euros and got it "for free" because for such a tool from other companies you have to pay 200 euros and up, it also has a 2-year warranty plus a free chain... it is lightweight and comfortable, if you want you can put a better spark plug, that's all.
