Good saw with limitations.
I bought the CS-501 because my CS-590 is getting a bit finicky after 6 years of heavy use. However, the CS-501 is just a bit lacking especially with the 20 inch bar (I'm often cut trees between 16" to 24" in diameter) and isn't a proper replacement for the CS-590.
I bought an 18" bar for it and it performs much better with the shorter bar.
Pros: Cons:
Lightweight Just a tad under-powered for a 20" bar
Good price Bar/chain isn't interchangeable with some other Echo models.
Starts fairly quickly (2~3 pulls)
Not excessively noisy.
Side note:
This chainsaw (CS-501) uses a .325 pitch bar/chain, the CS-590 uses a 3/8 pitch bar/chain, so they bars and chains aren't interchangeable.
