Too much wind and rain earlier this month. Device is somewhat uncomfortable for me. The reach from the handle to the power switch is a little long and awkward for me. I'm 5' 8" tall. Also, while the saw work rather well in a vertical plane, it doesn't seem to like a horizontal plane. Chain actually popped off and jammed.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hello there! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and review! We greatly appreciate your honest feedback as it gives us a better understanding of where we need to improve. The auxiliary handle can be adjusted for your comfort, and this process is described on page 15 of your user manual.
With a new saw, the chain will stretch while in use, which can cause it to come off the bar. In order to resolve this, we recommend checking the chain every few cuts to ensure that it is still properly tensioned. Steps on replacing your chain and maintaining proper tension are located on page 14 of your user manual.
I bought this to trim some medium sized branches here at home and our camp. It worked well as expected. It's definitely top heavy but most pole saws are but after a few minutes, I got used to the counter balance points.
I cut down several dozen branches on what charge and some 6-8" in diameter. The only complaint I have is the chain came off several times. And yes I tightened it, re-read the manual to ensure I was doing it right and despite that, it came loose/off several times. If it wasn't for this annoying flaw, I would give it 5 stars. The 20v battery lasted for about 45 minutes of on and off cutting so no concerns there.
Does this come with a starter bottle of oil?? 3 stars for now.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hello Valued Customer! Thank you for your question. No, 20V Power Share 8" Pole Saw w/ Auto Tensionpole saw does not come with starter oil. Any bar and chain oil from your local hardware store will work in this tool.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I never thought I would ever use a chain saw, The snow blower scares me let alone a chain saw! I just trimmed up the tree in my front yard all by myself. It was a little top heavy so it takes some strength to hold it up. Probably easier for a manly-man over a woman. So glad I added this to my WORX landscaping collection. So convenient that they all run off the same battery!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Arrived in good shape and on time. Unit is very unbalanced and hard to control due to head weight. Cuts great when you can control the swing motion.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Valued Customer! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and review. We greatly appreciate your feedback as it helps us understand where we can improve your DIY lawn and garden experience.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have other Worx equipment and bought this product due to battery interchangeability. The tool is not too heavy. It is well balanced. The saw is perfect for cutting high up tree branches. Cannot beat its portability.
