agreed. purchased one earlier this yr to replace a Stihl Farm Boss 038 that went to chainsaw heaven. we have stihl, echo, and husky saws here on the farm. don't see how you could go wrong with any of those ... but at the time the 590 was being sold at around $400 new, and is a lot of saw for the money.
