## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful, quiet, does big work for small saw 7.5 AH Battery package
*by M***Y on April 15, 2018*

Only used it a few times with 7.5 AH battery, but I cut small to medium sized trees for over an hour and one larger soft wood tree (see photo) only used up 1/3 of battery power during all that time. No hearing protection required in my opinion! My only complaints are (and they are minor), it's oil tank capacity could be larger as she uses it up quickly, which is good for the chain. However, if you didn't bring more oil, you won't be cutting for that long before you run out. I bet this thing would run an 18 inch bar no problem and the variable speed trigger is nice. I will agree with others that chain is narrow and needs frequent tightening, but it's new so that's pretty normal, I assume once stretched out it will not need as much adjustment. Also if you are a lefty, you may find the thumb safety cumbersome as its on the left side of the grip handle. No problem most of the time, but when I wanted to make a few left hand cuts it was a little awkwardand and would better if it was ambidextrous. Overall, very impressed with this saw. Perfect for a homeowner and maybe very light commercial limbing use.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good battery operated saw with a few minor tradeoffs.
*by B***B on February 20, 2018*

This Chainsaw works very well for a battery operated saw. The 7.5 AH battery seems to hold up well - cutting down a few trees and sawing into fireplace size pieces hardly used up much of the battery. A few things are a bit different with this saw: The chain is a special narrow gage (0.043 inches) - probably to reduce the amount of power needed to cut, but I found that the chain is a bit more fragile than a standard chain. It stretches a bit faster when new so you need to check the tension often, and if it comes off the bar during operation, the chain may bend such that it will not flex properly anymore, and cannot be repaired. Also, this saw lacks a true bucking spike - there is a series of ridges molded into the plastic case where the bucking spike should be, but the plastic will not dig into wood the way a metal spike would. I have not found this to be a serious problem as the narrower chain seems to reduce the pressure needed to cut through large trunk, but it could be a safety issue in certain situations. The saw is a bit noisy for an electric saw - just on the edge of needing ear protection - but of course much quieter than a gas saw.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great
*by T***M on April 21, 2020*

I love the ease of use, and how quiet it is compared to gas-powered ones. Other than bar oil, no need to deal with gas, additives, or bad gas and trying to get it started. Charge the battery and it stays charged for months until it's needed. I usually keep it in the trunk for road-rage incidents.
