In the low end Husqvarna manufacturing plant in Low End Alabama.
Husqvarna AB
The homeowner saws are made in China. The professional saws Ex 362XP are made in USA
McCulloch chainsaws are still made in north America by Husqvarna Tool Corp.
Husqvarna makes only the high end saw (359 & up) now in Sweden. Every thing else is made in America. American Yard Products (owned by Husqvarna),I think, makes their low end saws now.
There are many types of husqvarna chainsaws. Choosing the appropriate chainsaw will reward the buyer. There are lightweight, low vibration, simple or professional chainsaws. Lightweight and low vibration chainsaws will add comfort but reduce effectiveness, while on the other hand professional chainsaws will require higher skills and physical strength but will also boost productivity.
'Chainsaw Husqvarna' actually refers to the Swedish manufacturing company Husqvarna, which manufactures a line of chainsaws and other construction tools. The reference 'chainsaw husqvarna' in the question above is not an accurate or correct term.
depends which length bar you want. try googling it. DYOR
Not a chance. They are actually expanding by offering there saws in Canadian Tires and Lowes.
Husqvarna is a Swedish chain saw, actually out of Sweden....however, they own many many lawn and garden equipment companies, like Poulan-Weed-eater.....The best way to determine if it is a true Husqvarna, built for many hours, it states on the plate, made in the USA, if it is, chances are its a Poulan, if it states Sweden, its a true true Husqvarna.
If you are asking about new gas chainsaws, they are the same thing. Husqvarna is the parent company of both Poulan and McCulloch. McCullochs made until the mid-eighties (before the company went bankrupt) were generally good machines, although very heavy. I used my dad's Pro Mac 650 alot when I was a kid. Now I have a Poulan Wild Thing and I am not impressed. It's perfect for trimming trees around the yard but not much else. Don't plan on cutting your winter supply of firewood with it. The big Husgvarnas are still made in Sweden and they are very good saws. The cheaper Husqvarna saws are just Poulan saws with Husqvarna written on them. If this is going to be a long term tool that you want to take some pride in, I'd strongly suggest you put a little more money into a Swedish made Husky. You won't be dissapointed.
