    I bought one of the blue and white ones over the summer. Amazon delivered it with a corner of the box crushed and I didn't think it was a big deal until I discovered the blade studs were bent. I ended up getting a full return from Amazon and they let me keep the saw, then I discovered those does just screwed out at the time when I did the return process I thought they were retained from inside the crank case. So I repaired it easily.
    I'm about 3 tanks in and so far it's been great. Plenty of power for the 20" blade and I'm sure it could handle more. The spring assist starting is awesome, I noticed in your video you didn't seem to use it. Just pull the cord slowly until you feel the tension build and then just a bit more and it cranks super easy. Mine usually starts in about three pulls or less, I used it yesterday for the first time In a couple of months and it actually started in two pulls total.
    I'm still running it on a 25:1 mix for break in, I'm curious to see what it will do with a bit leaner mix and a retune. It's probably not actually 62cc, but whatever size the engine is it has a lot of power for the weight of the saw.

    Nice review.
    I have the cheaper supmix. They're 54.5cc not 62, it doesnt really matter but a real 62cc saw will smoke it.
    You're pulling the saw over way too hard, it has a spring assist easy pull starter, pull super easy like your arm is broken and it will start right up. This feature bugs some people but I like it, once you get used to barely pulling on the pull rope it's nice.

    bought this saw last december. you can pull the chord very slowly and when it reaches the end it will rev itself. never had the issue with the on/off switch because i just pull it up slowly and bring it down slowly. processed maybe 20 trees with it. still running great after a year. the saw is a clone of an old echo so i bought a cheap 2 dollar echo tensioner off ebay. now i can tighten the chain from the side instead of the front like a stihl. plan to use it a lot at work this winter before writing a real review. will be bucking and splitting wood for months so we will see how it holds up.

    I also have a China saw as a backup, its not a pro saw , but i really like it, and i did actually ...( change the muffler) so it dosen't get so hot. And as you say , keep the chain sharp, clean it regular...and it actually is a good home saw . Once again, they are not pro , not made for run 4-8 hours straight, each day. But for that price , i will actually try 16 tums blade and see how it handle it .

    Appreciate the straight up unbiased review.
    The only comment I might add, having a Similar saw in the Salem Master 6220H, These saws might just fool you with their capabilities. I easily upgraded to a 22" Bar and chain for Both cut depth and Reach when bucking. Less bending is always better. The 62cc saws easily handle most hardwoods to 30"+ with good cutting techniques and I have cut several Trunks up to 38". Keeping the Chain in good condition is Key to a good day in the wood.
    My 62cc has cut up about 5 cords of 18"+ Black Walnut, 30"-38" Tulip poplar, and a 24" green oak since March. I use a smaller49cc 4 stroke Senix 18" saw for most of the smaller rounds.
    18 total cords cut, transported and stacked for splitting.

    I purchased the blue and white version of this saw new in the box on marketplace for $80. I have a half dozen other saws, all Husqvarna and Stihl and much larger. My brother and I have been wondering how these inexpensive saws perform and for the price this seemed like a good way to get one in hand.
    .....so I was looking for a couple reviews on this model and found yours.
    I watch alot of product reviews and have maybe left a comment on one or two out of hundreds....
    But I wanted to make sure to thank you for your excellent review of this product. It was informative and well produced and I'm confident it was 100% honest. Seeing a review that is more than an unboxing is always a good thing but most turn into someone trying to hard and putting the focus on themselves more than the product.
    You highlighted the important things that people should consider prior to purchase and didn't get too technical with a bunch of time spent on specifications and head to head contests with products 4-7x more expensive.
    Your video was well narrated and well edited and was one of the best I've seen on any product. Thanks again for taking the time to post this review, it's something you should be very proud of.

Ive used more expensive chainsaws, but this thing worked just as good for less than half the price.

    Spare parts should be ordered from a Chinese online store, e.g. a circuit breaker costs 50 cents. It's a good idea to replace that breaker with a low rocker model, they are also available as self-resetting, meaning that the ignition current comes back on after switching off. Starter rope wheels have sometimes been replaced with these, it costs about $1.50 in China. 🙂

    I own a couple of these now and I love them. They start right up and have plenty of power. The switch is horribly annoying -- I usually keep my thumb on it when running the saw because it will sometimes just vibrate itself to the off position.
    But I bought some low profile switches on amazon and installed one of those instead of the toggle style switch. Just had to file a bit of the chassis and plastic cover away to get it to fit but its WAY better now.

      @@OutdoorsWithChad Thanks, I have actually since bought two of these, one for felling and I just bought another for milling, I ran 25:1 for 5 tanks and been running 40:1 ever since and it works great. A couple quirks I've found you have to be aware of is the bar has a lot of play on the pins and loosens the chain so you have to tighten it with the saw upside down so it's already deflected as far up as it was going to go, and the safety brake can get jammed open by sawdust and has to be fiddled with occasionally. I still can't believe you can get a saw like this for the price of a bar and chain at the STIHL dealership.

    • @OutdoorsWithChad
      @OutdoorsWithChad 14 днів тому +1

      @criticalevent Yeah they're pretty awesome for the price. I have 2 as well, the first one has cut a decent amount of firewood and its still going strong.
      I also tried milling a couple boards with it (12" pine), but found it underpowered for that, so for that purpose I've moved to bigger saws.
      I find my chain break seems to pop i to the braked position and I have to reset the brake a couple times before it stays open. I've also replaced the switch with a better rocker-style switch so it doesn't vibrate itself off. Minor complaints for such great value.
      I will say now that I have both a larger saw and a smaller saw, I don't use it much as I tend to reach for the bigger saw for most things. But that's not a knock against the Supmix itself, just that a 55cc class (which is what they actually are, not 62cc) doesn't really have a useful place in my lineup anymore except as a backup.

      I think his issue is that he's used to a saw that doesn't have the spring assist in the recoil. Instead of letting the spring assist do its' job you have the habit of starting it like a normal saw. I've seen a lot of people who bought Stihl MS 180C's with spring assist break the pull starter because they treat it like a normal saw.
