Excellent Power!

We purchased this saw to do some clean up around our property after hurricane Sally came through. Holy cow, this thing cooks! We had no problem going through 18 inch diameter oak limbs that were downed in the storm (double cut, of course as we only purchased the saw with the 16 inch bar). To be honest, when making the purchase we were expecting a glorified hedge trimmer, a pruning saw- something capable of cutting smaller diameter trees and limbs, but we were dead wrong. This thing is a silent, odorless killer- like the ninja of chainsaws. We ran this with a 6.0 amp HC battery for two and a half hours off-and-on, as chainsawing jobs usually are (but if I'm honest, mostly "on"). As far as other features go- adjusting the chain is simple and effortless with the included "scrench", as it should be, filling the bar oil is easy to do without making a mess, and the overall build quality seems stout.
Greenworks, if you're listening, some things that would be nice to see improved- The wrap handle, while super sturdy, is pretty slick feeling. Some gnarling in the design or rubber around it or something would make me feel better. I plan to pick up some grippy handle wrap tape to remedy this for myself. A full wrap around handle would be nice as well. Personally I think this saw has the power to be considered more than just a "residential saw" and as such a more pro level feature like a full wrap handle would be nice. Also, a cover over the battery port (like on your lawn mowers) should be added. For the most part chips evacuated out the bottom as they should, but some inevitably wound up on top and a portion of those somehow wiggled their way down into the battery hold. The only other thing that I don't really like is that the materials or tolerances in the inertia brake handle don't feel as high end as the rest of the saw. I don't feel like it's going to break or anything but it just feels sloppy.
Bottom line though, I love this tool. I would recommend this to anyone, including my mom. And I love my mom. If you're on the fence, jump down and buy it (for yourself or your mom). You will not regret it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Perfect for my needs

Was fed up with 2 cycle engines and decided to trash my two gas operated chainsaws and go with the 60V cordless chainsaw by Greenworks. Couldn't have made a better choice. First use was to get rid of an unwanted tree next to the shed. I quickly realized this tool would do anything my 35cc saws would do, but without the hazards and mess that come with gasoline (and the 2 cycle mix). That was not the only plus. I could set this saw down for a minute, pick it up and immediately start cutting again. No starting and stopping the gas engine or letting it sit and idle or stall out. The charge lasted longer than expected and the battery recharges quickly. Gives you time to have a beverage and maybe clear a little debris. I like the way the battery gives the tool full power until it's ready for recharging, no slowing down or loss of power as the battery drains. As the title says, this saw is perfect for my needs on my couple of acres to keep things tidy and dice up some firewood. Without worrying if my saw will start when I need it! I will be replacing all of my outdoor power tools with 60V Greenworks items in the future.

My first battery powered tool purchased --- 100%

We've a heavily wooded 10 acre property with a 1/3 mile driveway. We're parking back the driveway 75-100' on both sides. Most of my chainsaw activity is done on my knees on 2" to 6" trees. Being able to so easily just pick up & start this cordless chainsaw is a dream. Just the energy and time factor considered in using this (our first cordless tool) chainsaw versus a gas powered is remarkable. It's a powerful & useful tool in so many ways.

Bought this chainsaw for clearing overgrown brush and trees ...we had 2 other gas chainsaws during this 3 day clearing and everyone preferred to use the greenworks chainsaw.. the saw cut very well and battery worked for almost 5 hrs of on and off cutting..

This saw has much more power than I was expecting.
Still have a gas saw but wanted to try a Greenworks saw and am very pleased with its performance and love the convenience of dropping the battery in as opposed to the oil/gas mixing on the other. Would highly recommend

Easy to use and maintain

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 would recommend this to a friend!
