From talking to some local treeguys and our local Ex Homey dealer, they were a favorite in their day.
Light, powerfull and comfortable to work with, although a bit funky looking. Their nickname was "the Bedpan" due to their shape.

I personally love 150s. They are a little over 2.6 cu in. which is even larger than Super Ezs. Design appears in many ways to be a predecessor of the XL and Super 2 yet there are many differences. A very unique saw compared to other Homelites. A little tricky to work on the first time, but after a bit the construction kinda starts making sense. I have a couple for general light yardwork and are usually the first saws I go for.

I just picked up a 100% complete one last week, Red case.
I put some gas in it, and it will only run on full choke, no throttle response of course.
Adjusting the needles does nothing, but its got good spark.
I got 4 good stihls with it, Ive been playing with them, but now I want to get this odd shaped little guy going too. How do you take it apart, I havent really looked at it too close, but it looks like disassembly will be fun.
