Extremely easy to assemble. Works as intended. Being overly critical, The oil tank only lasts 30 minutes, and the chain dulls after a couple of hours use. Neverttheless this is an excellent product.
I bought this to trim my Queen Palms, which are now over 30 feet tall. I can no longer reach the fronds with just my ladder, so I bought this to give me extra reach. The pole saw makes the job of trimming my palms much easier!
My neighbor laughed at me for buying a low budget tool. He had insisted I buy a $500 Stihl, which I did not. But you should have seen his face when he saw me and Sun Joe prune my plum tree lightning fast !! What takes time is cleaning up the dang brush.
This a well-built product, and it works well. The only issues were the assembly documentation, which highlighted parts on the chainsaw that must have referred to parts on a different model. Also, the screw knob deciding the chain bar needs to be tightened occasionally.
