Efco saw's?

[fabguy01]

Ben seeing them pop up at a few places and they seem pretty OK "in the store" but was wondering if anyone had any real world experience with them? Nate

I bought a CS56 on sale for 300. Well built saws. Runs strong : )

Efco is Italian-made. I have a weed whacker made by Efco. It works great when it works, but it's a touchy PITA. I don't think I'd buy a chainsaw from them. I mean, look how well they make Fiats.

I thought ECHOs were Japanese made. Didn't they used to be?

Are you trying to change the subject or make a joke?

Neither. I thought people were saying "Efco" as a slight in the same way they might say"Pull-On" or "Crapsmen." I've never heard of or seen an actual "Efco."

According to THIS post, they make saws for John Deere.

Check out he Bailey's website. Efco and Echo are different brands.

Like mine a lot, even though it is yellow. Just used it yesterday to take down a big silver maple, an old pear tree, and some gnarly old apple. It does a nice job and is well built.
