I ordered this a few weeks ago and am very impressed with both the hedge trimmer and pole saw functions. It cuts very, very well and is surprisingly efficient at using battery power. Pretty easy to reach what I need to cut, though it can be a little awkward when trying to reach horizontally across a hedge row or similar plants. No recoil at all.
Pros: Easy to Use, Quiet, Durable, Effective, Powerful
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These things are awesome. They cut and trim everything I have in my area without issue. I lost my original ones in the Palisades Fire and had to rebuy them so I could clean up my property.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I own several of their tools and have been happy with them all so far. When I read about this product I noticed that some complained about the chain falling off the bar constantly. Mine came with the chain already installed and I assumed that it was ready to go. My second cut, sure enough the chain fell off. After checking I found the tension screw was loose, what happens when you assume. I put the chain back on adjusted tension properly and the unit has been performing flawlessly ever since. The hedge trimmer works just as well.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought it combo a few ago. I've used both the hedge trimmer and the pole saw. They both did the job. The hedge trimmer went through the smaller stuff easily and the pole saw went through 4 inch limbs like butter. This was my first battery power lawn/outside tool anf will probably buy other battery power lawn tools.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Chain popped off a couple of times. Easy to reinstall and tighten up. Cuts great with plenty of power. The shoulder strap is a must Vince this tool is a bit on the heavy side.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nice trimmer pole saw combo. Could have made the pole attached to the battery and tool shorter for normal height trimming and cutting and make the extension pole a little longer. It's a little clumsy and a little heavy but not too bad. Could have included a harness support strap. Did a nice job cutting.
Pros: Convenient, Cost-Saver, Easy to Use, Effective, Powerful

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I enjoy the equipment I purchased. The chain saw part of this buy is not as sturdy as I hoped. The chain will often fall off of the bar even when using it lightly.

Hello Mike Shiflett.
Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear that you have experienced an issue with the chain not staying on. New chains tend to stretch; so be sure to check the chain tension frequently and tension as required. However, be sure to never tension a warm chain before storing as chains shrink when cooling and this can damage the chain, bar, and saw. Please ensure that when you remove the side cover that the following parts are there and in order: sprocket (chain wheel), chain wheel washer and finally the c-lip. These parts are imperative when it comes to keeping the chain on. Please note that this product carries a 4-year warranty on the tool and battery from the date of purchase. Wearable parts carry a 90-day warranty against wear and tear. If you notice any of these parts missing or you are still experiencing issues we recommend you to contact with us by Chat on www.greenworkstools.com or by phone at 1-855-345-3934. We would like the opportunity to help you better.
