The Husqvarna 120 Mark II is a 38.2 cc petrol chainsaw with a 14in bar and an H37 chain, and it takes second place in this guide. Its listing states a power output of 1.4 kW from the X-Torq two-stroke engine, and an item weight of 4.85 kg.

That 1.4 kW is the reason this saw is worth a second look. A 26cc saw elsewhere in this guide is advertised at 2.7 HP, which is 2.0 kW — a bigger number from a smaller engine. On the Husqvarna's own listing, the field labelled Horsepower reads "1.4 Kilowatts", so the label and the unit do not match each other even though the number does. What can be compared honestly here is the 14in bar, the 4.85 kg and the 1,887 ratings sitting behind a 4.6 score. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing rather than from any test of our own.

## Questions people ask

**How much power does the Husqvarna 120 Mark II make?**

The listing states a power output of 1.4 kW from the 38.2 cc X-Torq engine. The same listing's Horsepower field reads "1.4 Kilowatts", so the two figures agree even though the label says horsepower and the value is in kilowatts.

**Is 1.4 kW a lot for a petrol chainsaw?**

On the listings in this guide, a 26cc saw claims 2.7 HP, which is 2.0 kW — more than the Husqvarna 120 Mark II's stated 1.4 kW from a larger 38.2 cc engine. The advertised figure varies by listing more than it varies by engine size.

**What bar and chain does the Husqvarna 120 Mark II come with?**

A 14in bar and an H37 chain, described in the listing as low-kickback cutting equipment for increased safety.

**The spec table says Power source: Hand-operated. Is that right?**

That is what the listing's spec table shows, and it does not match the 38.2 cc petrol engine described elsewhere in the same listing.

**How heavy is the Husqvarna 120 Mark II?**

4.85 kg according to the listing, which also gives the item dimensions as 28L x 55W x 29H centimetres.

**What do buyers say about it?**

The listing shows 4.6 out of 5 from 1,887 ratings. Of the 100 ratings broken down in the histogram, 83 are 5-star and 8 are 4-star.
