  1. Needler (verified owner) –

    Good customer service*****

  2. S E Jackson (verified owner) –

    A super saw. I bought this saw to replace my old Stihl 026 which has never let me down. But after twenty or so years almost constant winter use it is showing its age. On first using the MS271 I was struck by the ease of starting and its smooth running. Very pleased…

  3. Jack (verified owner) –

    The fantastic chainsaw comes with a Light 04 bar which was a very nice surprise. Couldn’t be happier with the chainsaw. compared to other saws I’ve purchased this is great. It starts easily, runs really well, is quite light, and comes very well packaged.

    I have just received my MS271 from RADMORE & TUCKER. I searched the wed for some time looking for a good deal on the MS271 and found this company for the first time. They are so helpful and cannot do enough for their customers. The staff are fantastic and knowledgeable. I cannot recommend them enough to others. Delivery fast, no issues at all. Just don’t look any further. I live in Lincolnshire the saw arrived on time well packed. So happy with this company it seems I have found someone doing it right for a change.
