My mother who is 76 bought this chainsaw a year ago and loves it. I just recently purchased the 16" chainsaw to use around the farm to clear fence rows and dead trees, I real like this chainsaw, it's light, no cord to pull when starting and cuts though large trees with no problem.
Tried out my new chainsaw over the weekend and it cut pretty decent except the battery didn't last as long as I was expecting which was a little disappointing.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Ohio Mike,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. This chain saw provides up to 140 cuts per charge. The number of cuts per charge or “run time” that you receive would depend on the load acting on the saw (i.e., the thickness and type of wood being cut) as the chainsaw would use more battery power on tougher and thicker objects being cut. We would be happy to investigate to see whether your run time would be considered average; please contact Greenworks Pro toll-free helpline at 1-855-345-3934. All we ask that you have access to the unit so that we can complete troubleshooting with you and gather necessary unit information.
I am totally impressed with the power and ease of use of the saw. I have several other tools from this company the blower, weed cutter, hedge trimmer and zero turn riding mower, They have all been just what I expected. Professionally produced and delivered.
