Bought this saw a few months ago. I have purchased severa electric yard tools over the years but decided to go all out with Greenworks. Wow! Awesome products, service and price! The saw is worth every penny. Have been clearing trees on our farm all spring. This tool has POWER! Cutting hard wood like butter. No worrying about mixing gas. Just slap a new battery in. Depending on battery size, it will be more then enough to get the job done. If not the chargers work super fast and will keep you working through the day without downtime. The clear bar oil window helps make sure I keep the chain oiled, which is the only maintenance other then the chain. Best part is the chain tensioner. Super easy to use and also comes with the multi tool, which stores on the handle for when you need it. Absolutely recommend the product and Greenworks. I have the 60v snowblower, saw, trimmer, leaf blower, mower and pole saw. Batteries are all interchangeable if the same voltage! Just buy it already!
Great chainsaw! Really good power and just the right size. I have been able to tackle several projects helping people clear tree and limb debris from their yards due to past storms in the area.
On second one. First one had manufacturing fault that prevented oil flowing at all. Replacement under warranty is not a lot better. After about 15 mins use chain came off and got bent teeth in the process. Have many other Greenworks tools that I really like but will not buy another chainsaw from them.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Fantastic chainsaw! Could use a higher Ah, but that's on me to get a larger capacity battery. Still the 2.5 Ah battery lasts for a decent amount of cutting and this thing rips through the trees.
I admit I'm not good with gas engines. I hate all the work to make them run. I lack the strength to pull the cord while holding the machine in the other hand and I'm afraid of the power they have to be honest. They are so strong and can hurt you so quickly. The battery chainsaw is a God send. I can now trim large branches that fall from the trees to make removing them easier. I can prune low hanging branches that interfere when I mow. I can make short work of trimming of larger limbs in the orchard. It's super easy to use and today I put a chain back on without help so I'm huffed! I am woman hear me roar!
Impressed with the cutting power and battery longevity. Love the idea of having the same battery for multiple products which also allows for longer ability to work. This is my second greenworks product and I am looking at more.
Bought this to take care of small limbs on our property. Love that the only thing needed is chain oil. Pull the trigger and you're cutting. Works great.
