    My 16" Craftsman is fine but the Homelite I replaced burned out and never cut straight. Their customer service was not good either.

    An electric will work fine for that. No where near as fast as gas, but I used an electric to cut a full cord of wood into firewood a few years ago. another advantage is you can work inside where it's warm in the winter without fumes.

    I was just thumbing through a Consumer magazine. This thread came to mind. They rated the Worx 16" highest. Incredibly, above the Makita. At 100 bucks, I think I may have to get one. Shelling out 600 bucks for the electric Stihl is a bit rough. But it does cut very well. Can't go wrong with the Stihl IMO.
