Product was defective. Had to return it. Customer service was awesome, though. Please note, I have purchased two more chainsaws from green Works and both of those turned out to be defective as well. Those were 80 V pros.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We take each matter very seriously and want to make sure you are happy. At Greenworks we stand behind each product we manufacture. We really appreciate you letting us know and apologize for your experience!
More powerful than I expected! Sliced right through the log length firewood I had delivered. I am a senior citizen and had no trouble using this saw. If a little old lady can use it, so can you.
The saw works great but wish the battery lasted longer than 45 minutes.

Hello M Lunsford,
We are glad that you are enjoying the overall performance of this chain saw and we greatly appreciate your honest feedback. One of the many benefits of the Greenworks 60V platform is the interchangeability of the batteries. If additional batteries are purchased in a combo pack (tool & battery) for another Greenworks 60V tool, you will have an extra battery that would provide you with the additional run time. If ever you have specific questions or concerns about one of our products, please feel free to contact Greenworks Pro toll-free helpline at 1-855-345-3934.
Love this when the chain stays on. I constantly have to adjust the tension screw and the guard. Pretty annoying if you have to do more than few braches at a time.

Hello Zmosul,
We are glad that you are enjoying the overall performance of this chainsaw and we greatly appreciate your honest feedback.
Chainsaw chains can come off due to multiple reasons such as worn-down bars, worn-down sprockets, and wrongly set chain tension. Chains should be tensioned before use. Please check the chain tension intermittently throughout each chore to make sure the chain is kept properly tensioned. A correctly tensioned chain should only pull away from the bar enough to fit a dime (10c) between the teeth and the bar.
If anything is worn or damaged, replace parts before using again. Replace the bar if: • the groove is not fit with the height of the drive links (which must never touch the bottom). • the inside of the guide bar is worn and make the chain lean to one side.
Please note, do not tension a chain after you have finished using the tool. Hot metal expands. If the chain is tensioned when hot, then allow to cool, the contracting metal could potentially damage the chain, the bar and even the unit. Wait until the next use (or at least until cooled) before tensions.
Should you require further assistance, please contact Greenworks Pro toll-free helpline at 1-855-345-3934.
