Tim used that like a pocket knife! Light, comfortable, convenient. We enjoy Tim's commentary, he speaks with confidence and authority without being overbearing. Cheers to all.
I switched over to Stihl saw's some time ago. I used to be dealer for a few of the other popular brands but always looked longingly , at these and now that I am retired, I can see why folks buy Stihl. This is an enjoyable video,.Thanks.
I got my 201 with a 14 inch bar. I can not imagine a homeowner buying this saw. They are very expensive here in Canada. Super saw though for professional use. Very happy with this little beast. You must keep up with air filter maintenance, seems to clog up quicker than most other professional saws. BUT, No where as bad as the dreaded 026.
I am a chainsaw carver and run the rear handle MS200 and the MS201. The MS201 was/is, from the very first, a nightmare. It requires constant carb adjustments just to keep it running. This saw was around $1,000 CDN years ago, and I'd hoped it would have the power to run my toonie tip bar while having the wonderful balance and smoothness from the horizontal cylinder (the reason it looks different than most chainsaws). I no longer would consider running any of these heavy, rev limited "smog saws" (Husky 5__ series included) and now scour the internet searching for pre-xtorq Husky saws to use in my business. Perhaps the automatic carb on the 201C will help (until it malfunctions), but I'd put money on the MS200 cutting circles around it.
I have tried almost every brand of chainsaw and while I do like certain aspects about husqvarna and echo chainsaws the best part about the stihl chainsaws is parts availability and the dealer network in North America at least. Still dealers are almost like gas stations they are everywhere and it is extremely easy to get parts for them even 20-30 years after a product was produced. A few years back I fully restored a 028 wood boss and the stihl dealer was still able to get me the parts I needed to restore a chainsaw from the 80’s... I don’t use the 028 anymore but it’s nice to know it still runs like new if I ever need it. Also the price of stihl replacement parts are pretty fair compared to some other brands... usually a brand new carb for a stihl weed whacker or chainsaw is $20-40 and when I went to get a new carb for a echo weed wacker they wanted $80 for it at the echo dealer... So for those reasons I have decided to stick with stihl and stop testing other brands until they can catch up to stihl.
I love my MS 170, 30cc with 16 inch bar. I've had it for two years. Great for liming and smaller jobs. Probably would say it's my favorite Sthil chainsaw. My MS 251C is a great bucking and firewood saw.
I have been using the MS-193 for about a year now and love it for limbing and clearing out dead fall. Getting ready for the summer push here in Alaska. In America the MS-193 and 150 are available. Both smaller.
those are not really professional stihl saws though.. they are not made in germany (for one) and dont have cast engines but plastic ones.. but they work.. a ms170 will work also (bit short on power compared to a 201.
Thats a great little saw, i have the 201t and love having the top handle. I havent modded mine as it does everything i want but maybe sometime down the line ill make it run even faster. I use this saw and my pole saw for the majority of stuff but will pull out my 310 for larger rounds. You can definitely tell the difference from the homeowner to the farmboss to the pro saws.
I've got the top handle version...only had it a week now but it's been great. Two loads of firewood and some cleanup...starts and runs good with decent power for the size. LOVE the top handle!
I was running this saw for about 2 hours at about a 30-50% duty cycle ruclips.net/user/postUgkxfQm1wmg0ItKDLavxj1nXtQY9HP7EF504 and it did a great job. I used the lever for the built in sharpener to clear chip buildup out more than to actually sharpen the chain. It managed to cut some hardwood stumps much larger than it's size without bothering the neighbors with hours of 2 stroke noise.
I went out and bought one of these today. Largely because of this video - had been looking for a lightweight saw for carrying with me and limbing etc. Tomorrow I will be taking it out for the first time and I’m really excited.
I have 2 MS180. One is set up with 14" bar x .050" the other has an 18" 3/8" lpchain that has really surprised me. If you lean on saw it may bog, but for an all around small saw( my 80+ year old dad wanted light weight saw he could use around farm) it is pretty awesome. I noticed the extra bar length comes in handy when libing without bending over so much
Stihl offers an *air fleece filter* to avoid dust ingestion with some woods. Good to assure a long lasting service. My father is 81 and still cutting wood with this chainsaw.
I don't hate Stihl, and I've owned several, but when it comes to air filtration, Husqvarna mops the floor with them. I mean the difference is almost laughable.
Oh boy, another episode of Swedish Chainsawing.Tim is amazing to watch. There's no wasted motion. If he ever gets bored with cutting up trees he could dance ballet.
Great video. Wow look at Tim go. Seems to be a very light saw and does great. My husband would've loved it. We cut so much firewood them years ago. Our old chainsaw never lasted long. Glad to see you both and the videos again. Thanks for sharing. May God bless you and your family always.
Got 1 at work, i recommended it, in the past i was used to ms200t and basically i chopped respectul trees with it didnt feel like a pocket knife and it got the job done, due restrictions they took the top handles away from us and came with a cheap ass saw for homegarden use entry level, i missed the ms200t wich i used for years, the cheapers saws couldnt do the work like i did before they just lacked power, and im not a fan of there construction. Nowadays im working with the backhandle ms201c, it gets most of the work done and it can easily cut down trees twice the size of the bar, so basically its enough, if u do basic garden work on professional level
Hi you're back it was great to see you both, Simeon and Tim. Greetings from Michigan USA. I enjoyed watching your video even though being a 65 year old woman I don't really care for chainsaws but it was great seeing you guys. Can't wait for more videos have a great day, Bye.
as a WEST COAST man, I have no use for a 201. but, great video regardless! :-) Here is a saw shootout I just did today, Stihl361 vs the Holzfforma G444
Thank you both, I used Eco and Husqvarna for a number of years. I was looking for a new saw, this looks right for the kind of seasonal work I am looking at doing.
Been using ms200, ms201 and now ms201c-m (m-tronic version) for professional pre-commercial thinning the last 15 years There are no better tool for the job when you are lugging the saw along for up to 10hours days and cutting down 500-1000 trees during the day The m-tronic version was a great improvement, as I had a lot of struggle with the first 201. Especially in damp weather or snow Another thing to mention is that the saw looks fragile, but lasts me 2-3 years with heavy abuse and just regular maintenance I use a ms241 for traditional thinning and really feel the weight difference over the day even it looks small on paper, but it definitely got a bit more grunt for bigger diameter trees Great review guys!
old time engineer but only after u fixed the intake , exhaust + port , new carb, fly wheel, 5 degree change., govenor control, bigger bar oiler, full skip chain, BIGGER dogs, full wrap handle, All modern saws dont run good factory stock imho. No stock oompfff saws for me.
African Twin Just for your Information: Stihl is the only company which produces carburetors for chainsaws. So your husqvarna has actually a Stihl carburetor.
I have a cheap chainsaw pole trimmer. It's been awesomeness even on felling 20cm trees haha. But I might upgrade one day to one of these mini monsters and build a log cabin or something just as dreamy. blah blah.
I use a 201 top handle daily in my bucket and it's a beast of a saw for its size. Quite expensive here in the states but worth the money if your a person that can justify the cost
Ha ni kört mera med sthil ms 201c. I gallring efter denna vedio? Om den fungerar än eller ha blivit sämre? Jag själv ha funderat på skaffa en stihl ms 201c i vår ungskog i gallring. Ha ni kört mer med alstor i skogen? Tack så mycket för alla fina videoklipp ni gör
What are your animals doing while you are working in the woods and reviewing? How are they progressing through the winter? Good to see you back. We’ve missed you.
I still use my 1974 Poulan S25DA for cutting firewood, 38cc and 8.5lb powerhead with 1/4 pitch chain. Actually my go-to saw, I use it for some rather large projects from start to finish. Of course I have larger saws for the really big stuff beyond 16 inches, my Poulan 306A (59cc) cuts like mad but it's 12-3/4lb, too heavy for me using all day.
In USA it's $710 for this saw and they have it listed under "farm and ranch." The ms-241 is listed as "pro" and sells for $540. Quite a difference here.
I would love to see a comparison of the Stihl MS261CM and the Husqvarna 550XP (especially after each of them has a few tanks of through them, since it can take a few tanks for the saw to "wake up" to its full power)
I own both. Got the 261 first. Did not think anything would match it. The 550 is a great saw. Switching back and forth between the saws. Here's what I notice. The 261 has more torque. This means once you get it into the wood the chain is easy to keep moving/cutting. I tend to not cut a lot of air when I cut. Running the 550 you need to stay on the throttle more and keep the revs up. Requires cutting more air. Less torque more speed. The chain is more likely to stop in the cut if you back off the throttle or put to much pressure on the bar. That is the biggest different for me. 55o has a primer bulb. Starts on the second pull. The cold 261 may take 10 or 12 pulls to start. Both saws are great saws. I just notice the differance because I switch from one to another. Hope this helps you out. I own the 201. I love this saw also. I have owned a o26 / 260 these are poor saws compared to the 261. Not worth owning if you are a professional cutter.
Great video guys, hello from out in the middle of prairie country in Nebraska, U.S.A. keep the review videos coming! Please review the homeowner farm/ranch models from Stihl, the 261 and the 271.
Great review. I think that the first 201's without m-tronic came to the market about 5-6 years ago. The m-tronic version is superior compared to that. Thanks.
Stihl saws are AMONG the very best saws made. They have had problems with ATTITUDE as well as engineering. My grandfather used to say, Don't buy something newly developed. Wait until it is perfected. Wait till the bugs are worked out. I am not bothered by a saw that looks odd. As long as it is strong and reliable. Did you say this saw comes in a top handle model? I would like to see it. And does it have a strong rope ring on the back for climbing arborists? Thank you for the demonstration. And the good narration.
I like the longer pole limb saw for low trimming because I don’t need to bend over. I own the Echo system and it’s just as good as Stihl’s. I have the older PAS260 system with all the toys. I couldn’t run a farm without it and I’m a little old man (72 yrs) and I can handle it.
If anything this is just as traditional as the upright cylinder design. Many older saws including Stihl units had a horizontal cylinder. Lovely little saw though. Interesting that they went for a clutch -outwards design like a Husky, it brings the bar in a little bit which I guess is important in a very small saw.

I bought a 201C for my wife to use as it's very light. I ended up borrowing it without returning! What a great saw for limbing!
I went out and bought one of these after watching this. One of the best decisions i've ever made.

Pro tip... When making a chainsaw vid, leave out the music. We want to hear the saw, NOT the music.
Jawohl, stimmt 👍🏼👍🏼
Kudos to you Swedish Husqvarna Boys for making fair and honest reviews without any nationality bias !!! All I buy is Stihl, Echo and Husky !
I’ve got the Stihl MS180c and boy is it ever an old guy start it every time and keep it starting kind of chainsaw. I’m impressed.

The older 018 pro is a true beast! Ive cut professionally with it as well as firewood.
Thats an awesome little chainsaw right there! I'm thinking about getting one and this seems to be just right for the kinds of work i am imagining
Oh boy, another episode of Swedish Chainsawing.Tim is amazing to watch. There's no wasted motion. If he ever gets bored with cutting up trees he could dance ballet.

I use this chainsaw as a trim saw as our company banned top handle saws. Love it from top to bottom!
Hands down the best STIHL ms 201 C-EM vid online anywhere. Keep it up, and please do one on the STIHL ms 241 C-M as well.
Thank you
I meant the ms 241 C

Increadible!!!!
Thank you so much for this kind of practical video
Great review. Thanks very much. You have a lovely family.

your brother is such a pro that it's pleasure to watch him working with the chainsaw!
Very helpful. Thank you.
Never used a 201 but I love my little 193.
Love this saw for pruning
Good for bucket truck use. I prefer a ms201t but that rear handel provides less fatigue on bunk shoulders.
Im a lucky man to have shared forestry school with Tim back in 2005. :)

Love the chainsaw videos! Always very informative.

Great to have you back online. Love the intro to this video.
Keep up the good work guys.
I like the longer pole limb saw for low trimming because I don’t need to bend over. I own the Echo system and it’s just as good as Stihl’s. I have the older PAS260 system with all the toys. I couldn’t run a farm without it and I’m a little old man (72 yrs) and I can handle it.
I learned on a Stihl and have only owned Stihl. I have tried other brands however the balance of others is no comparison to the Stihl
If anything this is just as traditional as the upright cylinder design. Many older saws including Stihl units had a horizontal cylinder. Lovely little saw though. Interesting that they went for a clutch -outwards design like a Husky, it brings the bar in a little bit which I guess is important in a very small saw.
I want one of these for light firewood work at the house
Great job, Tim.
Thank you for an excellent review.
I did get my 201 today..why did you change the bar in this test?
What size bar did you switch it to for the video?
Hi. What is the lightest saw (without modifications) you can comfortably use with 63 cm bar? Thanks.
Beautiful and strong 💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪
