I was talking with one of the fitters at the place that sells both Husqvarna and Stihl, he reckons like for like the Stihls are more expensive but no better, I was going to stick with Husqy as I inherited one of their small domestic saws and have been using that, think it was the 572 XP I was looking at in the store, but do like the look of the Stihls aswell I'm after a bit of an all-rounder, maybe try some milling at some point
