I bought a PP4218AVX.IN October, 2013. Didn't use for 2 years because I had a good Stihl.

I got it out in November for first time to cut some firewood.It ran good for 1 week, then it started cutting off when it got hot and would not crank. I took it to authorized dealer for repair. He says the ignition coil was bad. Also, plastic chain adjustment wheel broke.

I have read many reviews on this saw. It seems that only 1 out of 10 had not had any trouble with this saw. It will cost $150 to repair (including diagnostic shop time. I paid only $175 for this saw.

I don't think I should pay to repair it since it has so many other problems. I can get a new one for $150, but I'll never buy a Poulan product again unless something changes in the quality. This saw is a piece of ***. I would be ashamed to put my label on it.

The only fair thing to do is recall this saw voluntarily. Don't wait until some one gets hurt.

Reason of review: Bad quality.

Location: Choccolocco, Alabama
