I bought this saw for my husband because of it's great reviews and because it was battery operated. We are tired of the mess of gas tools and the difficulty starting them. This saw works great! We have an extra battery and by the time both batteries are used he is ready for a break.
The 18" replacement chainsaw chain is fantastic. It cuts great. Its for a Greenworks 18" corded chainsaw that is by far the best electric chainsaw that I have ever owned. I cut down 24 trees with a diameter between 2 and 8 inches. This saw never missed a beat.
So much easier to use. This is my sixth Greenworks tool in the 80v line and I’m all in! I have the blower, the mower, the tiller, the hedge trimmer, the edger, and now this!
I have a 42cc gas saw which we were using at the same time we were using this unit. This saw was as strong and we actually were able to make more cuts because of less down time refueling (we only had to change the battery). Also the noise was considerably less. However if you are going to be cutting for hours as we were, I suggest purchasing an additional battery so that one can be charging while you are cutting with the other. To sum it up I was very impressed with this saw.
Haven't used yet but I am certain I will like it based on my other Green Work tools that I own. I did use the same Grren Work tool made for a private label and thought it was terrific.
Great saw cuts through downed oak trees like a hot knife through butter and very easy to use. My one disappointment is that the battery has to be recharged after about 5 cuts. So have a spare battery around. I own several Green Works tools and the interchangeable batteries come in handy.
