I bought the 10" chain saw for my wife. She loves to garden and this is perfect for her to cut the larger trunks and branches on bushes and small trees in our yards. She in joy's that it is light weight, easy to use and works off a battery. It does the job!
We are quite happy with our new little chainsaw. We had been avoiding using traditional large gas powered chainsaws because of the weight, fumes, and vibration. This tool has the power we need and none of those drawbacks.
First Time using it I loved it! Just the right size & weight, wasn't the least bit heavy! I just hope when I have to use it again it still impresses me
The chain slips off too easy and the battery does not last very long. If you have a few trees to cut it might suffice but I’m really disappointed in this product.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Richard Carlisle,
Thank your for taking the time to share your experience. While the chain is installed on the bar, it will require to be tensioned and adjusted prior to your first use and frequently while cutting as new chains will stretch out. We would recommend reviewing the tensioning steps as outlined in your instruction manual. Ensure the chain tensioner is tight enough to keep the bar from moving. With the 4.0Ah battery included the unit will be able to cut up to 70 pieces of 4x4 pressure treated wood. If you continue to experience the same concerns, we recommend contacting Greenworks at 1-888-909-6757 or by email on info@greenworkstools.com a Customer Care support can evaluate the chain saw, the chain tensioner assembly, bar, and chain with you. Thanks again and we hope you get this worked out.
