I own the 562xp, can confirm it's the same weight as my 460 Rancher but cuts better and longer, as even early dulled chain stage is equal to sharp 460 chain. A lot of these saws have the CPU controlled fuel/air mixture system to optimize auomatically without experimenting/fooling around/tuning equipment which is necessary for older models. Also it's ideal to add a second saw to your arsenal to do serious woodcutting bc of the chore of chain sharpening.
Resale is really good on these pro saws too! So good choices for the buy/use/sell rental method.

And I second the move to bring 2 saws and sharpen later after the job is done.
Sharp chains are just as important as power. Maybe more important.
And I'll add my $0.02 that I always grab the smallest saw(s) that can get the job done.
I prefer small hot saws over big grunt saws. But that may just be my old and out-of-shape azz talking. ;-)

Stihl makes good saws. Husqvarna just as good (some will say better). It depends on which model you're talking about.
I'm happy with the $60 Poulan I got mfr refurbished off ebay a few years ago and may get a Chinese model this year off Amzn, gas one for about $110.
More than fits my needs.

Do NOT do this. No pro or serious woodcutter would even consider this!!
there's enough to proper chain bar tension adjustment, and your loose chain will form twists you will be moving the chain in circular movements for 30 mins trying to get it back on a single circular plane and untangled.
