Husqvarna 365

Brilliant – Very good pro grade saw. Well built and powerful with a 20” bar. Never had a problem with it. Only disadvantage is that’s it’s a little heavy but it is a pro 65cc saw and it’s chopped heaps of wood. Show details

365 special – The best chain saw I have ever owned it’s got the power I need when cutting still going I have never looked back I won’t go near a stylh chain saw have lent one the power doesn’t seem the same cutting us a breeze starting is no problem to pulls starts up thanks husqvarana  Show details

The hardest working chainsaw I've had the pleasure of using yet! – I bought this on the suggestion of a shop when I bought an acreage. The owner suggested that a pro saw with a 20 inch bar would fit my bill...... when he told me how much, I almost fell over as it was double what I thought I'd spend. But I'm so thankful I did. I used this saw in temps from -35 to +35 Celcius and although it wasn't happy at times,… Read more

it did it's job.

It's powerful and reliable. I have moved back to the city after 15 years and I bought a battery powered Dewalt saw to replace it. Stills runs and out-powers any of my family's or friends newer saws.

Husqvarna troubles and head aches – I purchased a Husqvarna 365 Special and when it was still under warranty the piston went on it. I was told that the wrong ratio of fuel was being used, in fact that was wrong I followed the ratio to the letter, anyway it was fixed and every thing went ok for a month or so then same thing happened and over the 2 years this happened at least 12… Read more

times until the last time they done the rings and piston so far touch wood it has been ok. I wrote to Hasqvarna and they didn't want to know about it in fact the manager was very rude in his reply. I had always used Stihil chainsaws until I purchased the Hasqvarna and even though it is working ok now I wish I had never purchased it cost over $1000 back in about 2007. I looked for receipt and could not find it but I had a letter from Husqvarna management when I purchased it but it doesn't mention it's a chainsaw.

This is the best chainsaw I have owned over the last 30 years – By far the best balanced and powerful saw I have had the privilege of owning, starts well,power to burn,I cut hard Goldfields Salmon Gum.Only issue I have ever had was a blocked fuel filter due to dirty fuel. I use a 20" bar,plus on occasion change to an 18"either way it is a top saw.  Show details

365 x torq terrible chain saw – I purchased this chain saw in 2014. The bolts/ screws kept coming lose so I put some lock tight to keep them in and they snapped off. I returned it and they sent it back for warranty. . I received a new one from the company. This year 2016 just started using it and the piston and rob broke inside. cost more to fix than a new one. I use fresh… Read more

premium gas and correct amount of oil. any one else have this problem. All my other craftsman, stihl, and mccolle chain chain saw still work. they saw it could be bad gas crap.

December 7th 2016 Update: Husqvarna 365 x-Torq chrain saw repair/ Terrible customer service

Well my 365 X-Torq piston and rod broke.. It was a 2012 model. Had trouble with the first one/ vibration issue, returned it and they sent it back. I received another one. The second one broke internally rod from the piston bearings broke. It cost $ 85.00 for factory authorized dealer to look at it. $550.00 to repair. If I rebuild it myself the parts cost just as much. I paid $600.00 for it. Why would i fix a piece of junk when I can buy a stheal. I have a stheal it has out lasted the Husqvarna. Their customer service was no help. Beware of Husqvarna junk not good as it use to be. I purchased it at Kenyon Nobel and their customer service was of no help either.

problematic since the first day – what i like about the saw is the balance and weight of it. it has all the power one would need in a mid class saw. for your average home owner it is too much saw, though for one who lives rural and heats with wood it is a good choice. the problems which i have personally encountered have been the following; (1) the first time i used the saw… Read more

the chain and bar literally fell off and the spark plug cover could not be removed due to a manufacturing defect.

(2) upon a cold start up it can be belligerent and easy to flood.

(3) the decompression valve should not be used.

(4) the saw i own is just two years old and over heated on me the other day.

as for issue one; i paid an extra fee at time of purchase to have the machine assembled and set up, need i say anything more.

as for issue two, the saw has been into the service dept several times and there has been no change. the tech has no answers except to lean out the fuel mix. NOT HAPPENING!

issue three; i no longer use the decompression valve as it would take the compression down too far and that would be a guarantee flood issue.

issue four; it is going into the shop tomorrow and if it is not a simple fix i will probably look to a stihl.

i have been using husky chain saws for approximately 15 years so i am not unfamiliar with them. yes i work them hard but i use husky oil and premium fuel without ethanol. they do not get left out in the rain or snow or lent to others. my first husky was the best and the machines seem to have slipped in quality over the years.

Top saw – Great saw have a 20 inch bar on mine,thats about the biggest I would fit,sadly this saw is no longer made,will keep mine going as long as possible. I have had it for 12 years it has never missed a beat,and I cut a lot of wood,cut a large tree down last week it ran for 6 hours straight ,perfect performance.

Comfort = Safety – This is my 7th saw,3 German and 4 Swedish. Swedes win, the saw/s are far more ergonomic and pleasant to use, same reliability etc. To me the Huskys are a finer less aggressive saw easier to use and therefore able to cut more wood/timber. I'm a farmer, for Husqvarna are the tools. NB Cant say the same for their back pack blowers!!! about as ergonomic as a fencepost.

99% faultless – Had this saw for 10 years, (11 this winter) best saw that I have ever owned, absolutely reliable & hard working, I cut yellow box & stringy bark for fire wood every year using a 20 inch bar. One very annoying prob that I had is that the screws on the bottom of the hand grip handle stripped out of the plastic 4 yrs ago, a bit of araldite & presto… Read more

no problems since. Within the first 10 hours of use the bolts in the muffler came loose, pulled them out a bit of mid strength thread locker, no problems ever since. The husky 365 seems to rev a little less that Stihl but gives a bit better torque, excellent air cleaning system. Will buy another Husky if & when this one wears out.

Works Like A Charm – I have had this saw now for 2 years and have used it regularly for cutting fire wood. It starts very well and has more then enough power for the work I do. It has an 18 inch bar on it and i often have the whole bar in the wood and it keeps going. I have also used it to cut the wood long ways rather then cross cut and even still it doesn't stop.… Read more

The air filter is easy to service but it is almost self cleaning the way the air flow is designed to keep it clean. Maintenance is easy. Can get a little heavy after using it for a while. In my opinion good honest saw.

A Real Gun of a Saw – What a fantastic chain saw. I bought (2) One for me and one for my mate. Easy start up real smooth, very little vibration and cuts like butter. When that motor hits its power band it goes like hell. Stihl has a name and are good also "BUT" these Huskys are bloody good also. I have a Stihl garden blower and when it dies i will give a Husky blower ago. Alex Melbourne Australia

awsome – I've ran these saws almost everyday for the past 11 years. Love these saws they have great power and easy to clean and maintain. It is one of the last dinosaurs husky makes that I trust. I recommend that you buy two before they are gone. You won't regret it.

expensive piece of junk – I purchased a husqvarna 365 chainsaw based on my previous excellent husqvarna quality products. This was a major purchase for me on a fixed disability income. It was a lemon from the first day, in three weeks I have got it to run twice. Have had a service dealer check it out..one of the times he finally got it to run..I have followed the… Read more

starting process and mixed the fuel exactly. It won't even sputter like it wants to start..My opinion is avoid this chainsaw.. As I'm afraid I will avoid Husqvarna from now on.

It's a dream – I have had this saw for 15 years bought it in 1999 never had a problem with it runs like a dream still to this day and I cut massive amounts of the hardest Aussie timber around with it Go you little ripper 365 When it finally dissidse to pack it in it will go on the mantal pice for a well deserved retirement

ALWAYS LEAKS CHAIN AD BAR OIL – The machine is amazing you just cant stop it. if it starts to get bogged in the log just crack the gas and away it goes. Biggest issue I have is that it leaks a lot of bar oil. There is always a large pool of oil under the saw when I go to use it the next time. Makes a mess of the cupboard it's in the power always leaks bar oil

Just keeps on going! – Great saw. Will swing a 24" bar when using a skip chain. When going that deep a skip chain is really useful anyway. Always starts and runs well. I use it a lot on my farm felling and I prefer it to the Stihl saws that we use in the ACT RFS Ultra reliable Nothing!

Amazing quality – I have used the 365 for a number of years now. Never missed a beat. It might be expensive, but worth every cent. In fact, you get what you pay for - power, quality and reliability. Reliable tool, easy to start, rugged, lightweight and producing an amazing amount of grunt. In line with all my other Husqvarna products.

Unstoppable chainsaw – I bought this Husky 365 chainsaw just over a year ago and once I got myself sorted out with proper sharpening techniques and chain type knowledge it cuts like nothing I have ever had before. The 20" bar can be in full depth in a hardwood log and it cuts so easily. The original chain turned out to be a full chip chain that isn't suited to cutting… Read more ·  1

dirty wood ie bark, termite runs in firewood logs.

Since changing to a semi chip and changing the chain out instead of sharpening with a file when dull has proved the best as saves the chain from damage by pushing it too far and my bench grinder sharpener does a better more accurate job. This saw cuts hard wood more easily than my sons' equivalent Stihl Reliable start , low vibration Original chain no t suitable for most Aussie conditions. They cut well at the start then you should throw the chain away

Excellent – Simply brilliant, power, starting, low-vibs, fuel economy, low noise, performance, turbo air cleaner, torque etc the lot, best on the market. If you can afford it, buy it, PS Oleo952 post was sell written This is simply the BEST 60cc range chainsaw in the WORLD, and end of story! The Aussie Army after testing [abusing!] this against similar… Read more

sized shindaiwa, stihl and oleomac purchased these Husqvrana's and also PAID MORE because they wanted and got the best. Expensive at $1249, but as always in life, you-get-what-you-pay-for and unlike similar sized stihl, this has a magnesium metal housing and steel handle, NOT PLASTIC rubbish!

Excellent – One of the best saws on the market in the 60-70cc range. We have a fleet of the 365 saws and the Husqvarna 346xp and both are exceptional. Our local dealer has easy access to parts and technical assistance if needed. No inherent problems with these saws after thousands of hours use. Light, powerful, alloy crankcase, easy servicing, a1 air filter system, low vibrations

Terrible – Old Husqvarnas far out rank the current range with both reliability and pricing! I have now switch to Oleo Mac... Twin piston ring, 5 year warranty and $300 cheaper then the Husky!!!! Weight Overpriced, only single piston ring, mine needed a new cylinder and piston after 10mins use! And YES! I added oil to the fuel mix

Fantastic chainsaw, ultra reliable and cuts like a dream – Bought mine 2 years ago for doing large hardwood (Gympie Messmate, Flooded Gum etc) as my Husqvarna 340 just wasn't enough machine. Expensive at $1200 but worth every cent, it has a fantastic amount of power, cuts through any timber like its a styrofoam carton but uses hardly any fuel. Husqvarna chainsaws are MILES better than Stihl, MUCH MUCH… Read more

better design and build quality. I thrash the living daylights out of both my Huskys and they NEVER miss a beat. Husqvarna owner for life! Powerful, efficient, utterly reliable, cuts anything. Absolutely Nothing.
