Stihl has been great to us for years. I keep a 210 with a 16" bar around the house here in suburbia. A 10lb or lighter Stihl is a handy homeowner saw. I use it much more than our larger Stihls which now reside at the farm and it'll handle the occasional storm dropped larger tree with no problem. I'd probably look at a new 211 if I were going to replace it.
