cutntrim is an unknown quantity at this point
I'm finally planning to buy a saw myself instead of continuously renting. I've only ever rented Stihl or Partner and much prefer the Partner over the Stihl. Quite honestly if I've rented a Stihl 15x, 14 of them have had issues, usually poor starting, and/or frequent stalling.

My equipment mechanic stocks Shindaiwa stuff, which I use for my 2-stroke lawn maintenance equip. I've always regarded Shindaiwa as top quality but have zero info/feedback on their cut-off saws. I think I'd be the first to buy one from him. They're pricey, but if they're as good as their other handheld stuff, it'd be worth it.
