[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I asked for this as a Christmas gift and was happy that I received it. I work in a correctional facility and the state purchased Greenworks push mowers for prisoners that were on our yard maintenance crew to operate. Myself and other officers were skeptical at first, but halfway through the summer we realized what a great decision it was to replace the old fashioned reel mowers with the electric ones. The old mowers would not cut dandelion stems or buckhorn well and the electric mowers mowed through these just fine. We shook our heads lsst fall as one prisoner used a mower like a brush cutter to mow and mulch some perennial flower beds. The 10 mowers we have never failed, batteries, chargers all have held up to our crew of prisoners mowing acre after acre over the last several years. Seeing the quality of these mowers gave me the idea to look at Greenworks for my own personal use. I've used my 80v chainsaw several times now. I've only had to tighten the chain and add oil. It cuts great and works well being on the move though the woods hinge cutting trees and clearing paths.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the first electric chainsaw I've used, and I'm impressed. It is powerful with a light weight, small, and agile form. It will rappidly cut through a 12in log without becoming bogged down. Quick easy starts at the push of a button without the need of pull starting a gas engine, with it's warming up,carburetor tuning and cleaning. There is a noticeable half second delay from trigger press to the motor starting that sometimes throws-off my timing as I'm about to bring the chain onto the wood; but otherwise the tirgger response and speed control is excellent. For tree climbing and trimming work, Ive made the saw even lighter and more agile simply by using avsmaller 2.0 Ah battery -- it has all the same power, just less run time, which is still plenty for that type of work.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Exactly what I expected from Greenworks. Excellent quality - goes well with my Greenworks polesaw and leaf blower.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I haven't used this tool yet. Waited too long and now winter and snow is everywhere. I will use it this winter if any small to medium trees fall over my driveway; otherwise I will wait until the spring. It is smaller than I thought, though. But the "tool only" renewed price was too good to pass up.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Expanding on my Greenworks investment, now I can leverage my 80v battery, originally purchased with my 80V 20" Cordless Battery Single-Stage Snow Blower, to help clear brush, trim trees, and blow leaves (also picked up the 80V 730 CFM Cordless Battery Leaf Blower)!!
Appreciate the convenience, power, and versatility of my Greenworks tools!
Pros: Convenient, Cost-Saver, Easy to Use, Durable, Effective, Powerful
