Good content! My mechanic finally convinced me to switch over the Echo X Series after 30 years with Husqvarna XP. I will say that the CS 620 and CS 7310 are excellent Pro Saws in every way, power, durability, and reliability in the woods. No modding necessary with the X Series.

it's hard to beat the price and output of it. I have had mine for about 4 years now and it just works. Not the fastest saw, but it's reliable and don't complain when worked hard. they are torquey for how they run stock. open them up a bit and they run and pull better. They just like to have the bar bairied to see the power and torque. Great saw for the money.

Not many 59-60 CC saws that I could find that were less than $500 new from a name brand. I 'm looking at Home Depot pricing since they have it in stock I don't want to wait. With my HD credit card, I get a 1-year return policy anything I buy I'm assuming I get it with a chainsaw might not be the case I do with everything else. I looked into the China clones while they seemed appealing, I realized I don't need a 92CC saw. I'm just hunting for down firewood currently my 46CC homelite doesn't have the power it bogs when I try to cut anything in the 14"-16" size. I thought I wanted a big CC engine I know starting it will be more difficult, and weight of it even with a 20-24" bar. I think the Echo Timberwolf is what I'm going to go with.

The engine in the Echo CS-590, and other Echo saw models for the most part, are built for torque. Which makes them run really well in larger diameter wood. If you want to upgrade your CS-590, get the carb and coil from the 620P. The carb is bigger and the coil revs to 13,500 instead of 12,500rpm. You'll gain a ton of power. But only replace those parts when you have to.

Echo 590 is a great bang for buck firewood saw, and decent all around.

I have both (well, Jonsred 2260 version which is a little lighter than 562xp running a husq. small mount) and have cut a bunch of wood with each one. I think for general firewood, the echo is a great saw, and if you can find one for $350 delivered, you are getting a brand new quality saw for the price of a clone saw, or maybe a beat used saw. The echo 490's are real nice to, if you know a little about muffler mods, etc. and aren't cutting too big of wood.

I'm only using them in my woodyard, so not much of an issue with using cheaper saws alongside my big name brand saws. This way if one saw is in the shop, have three others to choose from.

@@thefirewooddoctor yes if your shop or house is on same property is great . Backups are great just in case . I like having 2 saws for 50 an 70cc saws . For the most part i dont need the 90cc saws but im impressed so far w the g660 an thats kindled my interest in finding a good 390 . Been looking locally an theyre scarce as hens teeth in these parts . See em on ebay tho

Amazon has their own 1 year warranty on every purchase. You could kill that saw and send it back for a brand new one....

Is possible to kill an Echo. Run it without an air filter or straight gas it.

Why do people think they need to MOD this & that? The saw works just fine....quit f'n with it.

Is fine to get started with in firewood. Is all the saw the average homeowner needs. That said, love the Husqvarna 572xp that I'm using now.

At the time of this video, was just wearing the suspenders. Bought my 572xp a few months later. The Echo CS-590 is superior in build quality to the Husqvarna Rancher 455/460 saws.

Nothing wrong with any of the three major brands. Echo has the edge in the quality of the farm and ranch saws in my opinion. Pro saws, you can't go wrong with Stihl or Husqvarna. Echo isn't far behind in my opinion.
