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!
Gas and oil saws are too much work. It takes a long time to fuel-up, get it started, keep it running, etc. it’s really nice to just pop in a battery and get cutting.
I added the Greenworks rechargeable chainsaw to my Greenworks stable and now I dont have to fight with a pull starter cable or gas/oil mix ever again. It can cut up several trees on one charge and if you get another battery you can keep on cutting.
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.
