i have allways been partial to Stihl saws. I guess its kinda like anything else. I have an 024 & 034 and have cut a lot of wood over 30 years. Most of my friends run Husky pro saws and they really like them. I am testing a small RedMax saw. I have run it for two years. Its a dag bern little screamer now. But to answer your question, Stihl especially if you have a local dealer.
