This is my first experience with a battery operated chain saw. I have other Greenworks 60V tools and they work very well so my expectations were high. I was not disappointed in the least! I found the 60V chain saw to be as powerful as my gas saw but much less hassle. It cuts very well and battery life exceeded my expectations. All in all, it is a very powerful and light saw that performs as I need and have come to expect from Greenworks!
While I do not use the tool myself, my son has used it several times and says it runs well, is easy to use - loves that it is cordless,& gasless battery driven.
Just got the saw and limited use. Seems to ripe thru the wood. Have not used it thru a battery charge yet, so I can't rate battery yet. Not near as noisy as gas and no pulling the cord or mixing gas.
I have owned several high-end gas chainsaws and trimmers throughout the years. I was always impressed with the power. But overtime they would all breakdown, usually involving the small engine. I decided to make the switch to Greenworks. I thought I would be giving up power when giving up gas. Boy was I wrong! My last purchase was a chainsaw to trim and cut down trees. I was really skeptical, but again, Greenworks knocked it out of the park! I easily went through 10-12” logs. My neighbors kept commenting on how quiet, but efficient the chainsaw was. A few even jumped in to help me with the work.
Let me tell you something, a product is good when even your neighbors are willing to do your work for you as long as they get to use your tools!
