Flagged as a product to avoid

1 of 12 research runs entered this as a product to avoid rather than a pick.

You pay flagship-kit money for a 16-inch bar and a chain tensioner Murdochs' customers call horrible, with too much plastic and poor design to hold up even to casual use, while the Echo DCS-5000 gives an 18-inch bar and comparable cutting for less.
