I was given this saw for Christmas. I love it so far. I don’t have to mix oil for the gas. Just plug in a battery and add chain oil and go to work. It is light weight and easy to use. I’m getting the pole saw next. Keep it coming Skil.
I cannot believe how much wood this saw can chop with its 4 amp hour battery! I made about 20 cuts through 5” diameter birch and still had 1/2 battery left. It works so well it feels like a pain to haul out my gas Stihl now. I will only use that for big jobs.
After the ice storm of '23 in Texas and all the broken tree branches scattered throughout the city and property. This Skil chainsaw did its job in the clean up.
As a senior female I was hoping never to have the need to use the chainsaw but being surrounded by woods on two sides realized I needed to be prepared. I had occasion yesterday to cut 30' of tree laying in my yard into foot size sections in a relatively short period of time. The cut was smooth from start to finish without any slowdown of power as the battery wore down. The chainsaw was small enough and light enough that I had no problem using it.
As a woman with no experience with chainsaws I found the Skil PWR Core chainsaw so easy to use. I bought it to trim my large canary palm tree. It cut through the palm fronds like butter, and these fronds are huge with big spikes. I couldn't be happier. Skil offers a 4ah battery vs. a 2.5 that most competitors offer. Great buy!
