Hard to find a used one. If youre getting a telescoping polesaw, I would get a husqvarna. I had a stihl, it was awful to extend, good friend has one, its the same way. Had mine worked on, didnt last long then got worse. Especially when it was cold, it took two people playing tug of war to get it extended. It was a 2018 model, dont know if theyve changed the design, if not I would stay away from it. For just a stationary 8ft pole saw I would get an echo, you cant beat the warranty, they are fine little pole saws. Im a stihl man, almost everything I run is stihl and I do make a living with them. For a polesaw, you want an echo or a husqvarna

I know you said gas powered but why not electric? I have a Cobalt 40V that I've never run the battery down. It runs my arms down before the battery dies. And I don't have to wear hearing protection to use it.
I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.

And I don't have to wear hearing protection to use it. I spoke with a small engine repair guy a couple of years ago, and asked him about a gas powered pole saw, and he said to buy electric. He told me that the electric one he bought from Harbor Freight would cut down more that what you wanted to pick up. He told me that no more than people use the gas pole saws, by the time they get them back out to use them the 2nd or 3rd time the carb is gummed or stopped up, and they have to bring them to him to repair.

I know what y'all are saying, and I agree. I've had the Cobalt 40V battery powered pole saw, and a $650 gas powered pole saw. Yes, if you're using it 3 times a year for 30 minutes, go electric.If you're using it twice a month, and for an hour at a time, gas all the way.

The housing cracked, and now it won't tighten the chain 😩
