A bud of mine has a Jonsered 2172 (re-badged Husky 372) that he's had for a few years now.
I'm not impressed with it at all-namely it's reliability.
His has been back to his dealer at least 3 or 4 times so far. I don't remember all the issues he's had(ignition and oiler for sure), but none were serious. Jonsered covered everything under warranty.
I have an old McCulloch ProMac 700 that I've ran on the few occasions we've cut together. When his is running good, it's all I can do to keep up with him. Most times, however, it's him who is struggling to keep up with me. The newer Huskys run ALOT of rpm's...or at least they sound like they do. His doesn't 4-stroke out of the cut like all my saws do and it smells hot when he's working it hard. His dealer assures him it's tuned properly, so he doesn't mess with it. He can usually get by me in a smaller log(12" or under), but the 'ol Mac seems to shine when we get into larger logs.
I paid $250 for my 700 about 20 years ago. Other than a new rip cord, carb kit, and 1 or 2 plugs, it's been a very reliable saw.
I think he paid in the neighborhood of $800 for his J-red.
I am so accustomed to running the older saws that the newer ones seem way out of balance to me.
