Best of the best
Strengths:
Absolutely love this saw,best running saw I ever owned.Run a 32 inch bar with 404 rapid super and it just eats the hardest woods.I use mine to slice the wood into pieces instead of splitting it,this saw cut dead black locust logs faster sideways than most saws cut cherry normally. Stihl is number one in my book.

Summary:
Excellent saw, although I would not recommend as an only saw for anybody.
Strengths:
Very good saw for the larger timer, or for cutting larger stumps. Excellent power to weight ratio, good dollar value when you consider what you are getting.
Weaknesses:
A bit heavy for some users - if using all day. Consumes more fuel than the 441 or 361.

Summary:
This is a professional use saw, made to be used everyday. Too much saw for the occasional use homeowner. I recommend this saw for the professional woodcutter. The saw does get heavy after several hours of use but it will not fatigue the user due to the anti-vibration. I found this saw to balance well with the 25" bar. Using a 36" bar makes the saw a little unwieldy but still very powerful. I have used a Husqvarna XP395 for a day of large pulp cutting and I have personally found the Stihl MS660 to be a superior chainsaw.
Strengths:
Robust. Very powerful. Balances well with the 25" bar. Excellent anti-vibe. Versatile saw using different length bars. Utterly reliable. Well built saw. Made for professional use; Retail price reflects it.
Weaknesses:
None found yet.

Summary:
Great saw, only running a 25" bar at the moment but thinking about purchasing a 36" for extreme cases, interested to see how it would handle the larger bar. Used for cutting jarrah, does so with ease.
Strengths:
Very powerfull, not too heavy considering the machine you get. Keep the chain sharp and nothing will stop it.
Weaknesses:
No carry case, Come on Stihl!!!
