The Poulan Pro 16-inch 38 cc anti-vibration chainsaw features a 16-inch bar, allowing a cutting capacity of 32 inches in diameter. Its anti-vibration system isolates the engine from the chassis, reducing vibration and improving comfort and safety; further safety measures are ensured by the inertia-activated chain brake, which stops rotation of the chain should kickback occur.

Good Purchase,

This review is from: Poulan Pro PP3516AVX 16-Inch 35cc 2-Cycle Gas-Powered Anti-Vibration Chain Saw (Lawn & Patio)
Disclaimer: This is the 1st chainsaw I've ever purchased and used at any length. My first introduction to chainsaws was rocky, to say the least, so I was hesitant to even buy one. However, a recent move to 2 heavily wooded acres pretty much necessitated a chainsaw.
I've used this saw for about 5 months now and I've probably felled 20 trees. I'm still using the original bar but I have purchased 2 additional chains. Probably against all better judgment I haven't sharpened any of my 3 chains to date and I still have one chain that hasn't been used. My most recent use really showed that I need a sharper chain. Anyway, to get to the performance, this chainsaw has been great. It seems to use lots of chain oil, but that's to be expected I think. The gas use is within reason for sure because I've only used 1.5 gallons so far and that's with regular use. The largest tree I've taken down by myself was probably 3 feet in diameter. The 16" bar was obviously not long enough for such a monster tree but if you take it slow and cut from both sides it's manageable. Overall, my $136 purchase has been recouped many times over. The saw is light, easy to maneuver, and seems safe (as much as a chainsaw can be I guess). I haven't had any close calls yet (knock on wood) and I feel comfortable using it. The brake mechanism seems forceful and the rotating chain comes to a complete stop measured in tenths of second. The kickback protection is a nice addition and while I haven't seen it in use, thank goodness, the idea and function behind it seems like it would work a charm. Highly recommended. I'm sure that there are more professional and longer lasting options out there, but then again I don't have any plans to use this saw more than is necessary. Once I get my lot in shape I plan to clean the saw back to as new condition and hold it in the shed for a long time to come. After taking down some large trees I've contemplated the idea that maybe an 18" bar would have been more the sensible choice, but ultimately I always realize that the 16" has been more than adequate and it seems like the shorter length makes it more of a joy to use, not to mention safer.

Awesome for yard trimming and/or firewood,

If you are looking for a chain shaw for around the yard and cutting firewood, this is the real deal. It's small, light, easy to use, and has plenty of power to cut down trees when necessary. I bought it to clear out about eight 30-foot trees to install a fence, and that was a snap. A lumberjack might consider it to be lightweight, but that was what I was looking for.

Saw works as advertised; great value for the money,
By
This review is from: Poulan Pro PP3516AVX 16-Inch 35cc 2-Cycle Gas-Powered Anti-Vibration Chain Saw (Lawn & Patio)
This chainsaw lives up to what I expected. Follow the priming instructions and it starts as advertised. I'm using it at an elevation of 8800 feet. With a sharp chain it cuts pretty well, but trying to rush the cut will bog down the engine. That's not surprising though as each 1000 foot of altitude decreases power by about 3%. I knew that going in and might have been better off with a larger engined saw, but the weight was a tradeoff. Main thing is I'm still happy with the saw after using it about every other weekend for three months clearing dead and downed trees on some mountain property. I should mention the anti-vibration mounting is quite good. There are some other Poulans (and other makes) that do not have this.
