The Husqvarna 235 is a now-discontinued homeowner model that was introduced in 2008.
Here’s how it was described on Northern Tool (listing still available here):
This Husqvarna Chain Saw is ideal for jobs like pruning, lighter cutting tasks and hobby work.
Easy to start and operate, thanks to built-in Husqvarna features like ergonomic design, facilitating technology and powerful X-TORQ engine with low emissions.
Full disclaimer: the Husqvarna 235 does score highly in polls on the worst Husqvarna Chainsaws!
