Just don't buy the 236 it's not a husky and is crap,

Iv had a Makita saw with a 16in bar on it & it was a bloody good saw I ended swaping I knw the person that's got it & he more than happy with it I ended up getting another stihl they just have a bit more power ( for the same size saw) than the Makita & as im using it every day it made a difference more so once youd taken the edge of the chain the stihl keeps cutting slowly the Makita just gave up & as im using mine for fencing it always seems to find dirt & old staples lol
