My husband has used the chainsaw. He really likes it. It is very quiet compared to a gas powered chainsaw. It cuts through logs easily and by the time the battery runs down, he is ready to take a break also.
Over the years I been skeptical about buying battery operated yard and lawn equipment. Thinking the torque would be weak, not lasting, and not durable. I bought my first 80V lawnmower and weed trimmer a couple of months ago. They worked so impressively that I decided to invest in an 80V chainsaw and leaf blower and none of them have let me down. All pros, no cons. 5 stars.
Prior to purchasing this chainsaw, I had borrowed a Greenworks trimmer from a neighbor, as my old one had finally bit the dust. I was apprehensive with using battery-powered yard tools, but upon using the trimmer, I was instantly sold. I dropped it back off, thanked my neighbor, and promptly purchased the trimmer.
Shortly after ordering the trimmer, I decided to order the chainsaw, as I have wanted one but hadn't previously purchased one.
I don't really have a need for a chainsaw on a regular basis, but there are times when these old trees fall in our neighborhood and I feel useless because I can't help move them from the streets.
No more. Since purchasing the chainsaw, I eagerly awaited the chance to use it. Lo and behold, I was given that chance a few weeks back after a gnarly windstorm knocked down and old tree behind a couple of our houses.
I promptly chugged my coffee and got to work. Using the chainsaw to trim the tree was like cutting through butter with a knife made of lava. It was dreamy. It was perfect. And oh so quiet!
I am sold on Greenworks. These tools are rad, and I will be recommended them to everyone forever.
I swapped from a gas powered chainsaw and I have been very pleased. Great power and I love the quiet use. Doesn't disturb the game on my hunting property.
Have had gas chainsaws over the years and was a bit hesitant to go battery. But I have been pleasantly surprised. The power and agility of this saw is great. No drop in function from the gas units.
