Opinions on MS200T?

[Beowulf]

Well, I have not been exactly a big Stihl fan after my carb experience with my MS250, but I decided I wanted a nice little top handle saw for work up high or occasionally cutting up smaller branches on the ground.

From what I've read and the specs here:

The MS200T sounds like a pretty good saw for this purpose. I have a chance to buy a new one at a "reasonable" price. Has anyone here used one? What do you think of it?

I had a chance here to try out both of the stihl saws the 200t and the 192t . The 200T seemed to me to be a much better saw then the 192T . I thought the 192T seemed to lack the power to do much with it seemed more like a toy saw . If you can get a good deal on one I would grab it , Resale on them is awsome if you dont want it later on .

192t will cut very good up to about 8in. lacks no power running a .043 chain run one a couple hrs. a week at least. The 200t with the bigger chain I would say the 2 perform fairly close....200t a much better built and does have more power but with the different chains your not going to be able to fill it in the cut.
