Pros

I am pleasantly surprised, however, with how well it works. The battery life is perfect. It is enjoyable to use. Whoa, it works!

The battery life is more than enough to do all the trimming i want to do up in the tree and then cut up everything i've taken down on the ground if i don't feel like hauling out my big gas powered saw. Its light enough to attach to my climbing harness...  Read More

Greenworks 12 inch chain saw works great, it's lightweight and easy to use. Great battery lift & price. Great little chainsaw to add to my 40v greenworks tool collection.

It is so much handier and quieter than a gas saw. Cuts very well, but not as good as a gaspowered saw. Can jumpy cut when bucking up small dry hardwood limbs.

This is their newest version of this 12 40 volt saw. The battery itself and the charger are much more substantial than the black and decker. This little saw is a jewel.

Quality


I was very impressed with the performance of this.


Even my wife love it as she is not comfortable with the gas saws.

Price


For now this 12 does everything i need, great battery lift & price.

Shipping


It is nice to have to clear the way fast.

Competitiveness


I also have a greenworks 16 model that will be coming next week and that one uses a 4.


I have a greenworks pole saw that uses the same battery so i can use both in the same equipment and they outlast me.


Even worse you will find it impossible to trim a 1-inch fresh flimsy branch as it will just bounce all over.


The 2ah battery works for about 60 cuts with breaks in between.

    Its not a gas powered saw so it sounds different


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Didnt check the raking depth on the chain but something must be different about this little thing as it cuts like butter


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Due to the slow speeds if you try to cut a hardwood that is dry or branches it is quite bouncy which is expected for the slow speed
