Forester brand chainsaw bar & chain combo

[kenmac]

Any body use this brand bar / chain on their saw ?? Seems like a good price at about $80.00 for a 28'' bar with chain. This probably wouldn't hold up for commercial work, but I would only use as needed. Very rarely .. SO, any reviews comments on this brand ?

I use them all the time. They are as good as any other brand.

So, looking / reading on this sight. They might just be ok. Think I'll just buy the bar, as some on this sight don't think much of their chains

I did the same for a stihl ms440. Bought the cheap bar but running a stihl full chisel chain with okay results. They also offer a roller tip bar with a replaceable tip. Have not used enough yet to know.
