Looks like a chicom clone of a Husky.
I wouldnt touch it with a chinese clown pole.
I'm new to this forum and basically signed up just to share my experience with the exact saw and CL ad your speaking of. I live an hour from Charlotte NC and bought one about 8 weeks ago. Instead of shipping I ask to pickup since it's only an hr away. Right away they gave me name and contact info of a guy named Tim Ridge over the deal to arrange pickup. Sure enough I picked it up next day! I paid $140.00 cash out the door and it was brand new, box, paperwork, Chainsaw tool and guard. I am a full time Arborist and Tree Service company owner. So I own 26 saws. Mostly Stihl, Husky and my favorite "newer model" Echo's. I mainly bought it to let a couple of the new guys do some cutting with it to get some saw time under there belt without tearing my high dollar saws up! We ran the heck out of it for 2 days, I was pretty happy considering the amount of saw your getting for $140 bucks. Then I read a little about doing a muffler Mod to it and how it changes it dramatically without a ton of risk. Apparently they had some issues passing EPA standards and had to choke the muffler up pretty good to squeak by! So I did the 20 min super simple muffler Mod and have ran the piss out of it since. I would conservatively say it picked up 30% and that saw rips! I never thought I would say it, but for the money you won't find that much saw anywhere. I have since bought 3 more and did the same Mod to them. I love having them in my arsenal and if my guys haven't tore them up yet, then that says something. They could tear up a new hammer in a padded room! I had one issue out of 4 saws and it was an easy fix. The lid on gas tank was leaking. I called the guy that sold it to me and he mailed me a new gas cap with seal in like 2 days! I could have bought a seal for $2.00 either way. So my 2 cents is it's a no brainer for $140.00. And when I bought the other 3 from him at one time he sold them all to me for $125.00 a piece OTD.58cc

Echoman, One question - what size, pitch and link count chain does it run?
Hopefully it is something that can be easily replaced!
Heard a lot of rumblings about the EarthQuake saws as well and how they really could be made into ground shakers w/ a muffler mod. Anyone know offhand if the carbs have limiter caps or what is needed tool-wise to richen up the saw after opening up the muffler?
It holds, but it doesn't seem too durable.
For the price you don't need to get too much out of them, meanwhile you get to play. It's enticing.

I'd like to try one...but much rather have an 18" or 20" bar.
