Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

The saw does the job for what it was purchased for, which was to de-limb fallen timber. Tough and rugged 8 out of 10, i love this saw.

When you are not cutting, when you are trying to get around some rough terrain like steep sides of a gully, it's off completely and safely. The ability to just squeeze the trigger and cut without starting is under appreciated.

I hooked it up to an alaskan sawmill to plane some of the larger logs. For home use and cutting up firewood its amazing.

Cons

The battery life is not as advertised. Good at first especially for cutting limbs off trees but as soon as you get into larger more difficult hardwood trees the battery dies quickly. The safety button has to be held continuously making it more complic... Read More

Battery flopping around without any support. They are not dependable. Each has failed within the 4 year warranty.

Greenworks pro chainsaws are of such cheap, disposable quality, that it's not a problem for greenworks to repeatedly send out replacements at no cost. Sprocket is not user replaceable and would have to be taken to a repair facility.

These chainsaws are not as high speed as gas powered chainsaws. It leaks constantly. Only solution is to drain the oil every time you use it.

Price

The price tag for this makes it a very affordable option for anyone wanting an electric chainsaw with a lot of giddy up.

It is worth the extra money for the convenience!

The husky is almost $500 this one was $300.

Batteries with longer runtime are very expensive.

Shipping

Sold by and shipped from amazonf them

After a few warmup cuts it seems pretty powerful but i just got it today august 3 2023.

Competitiveness

I have owned several different brands but this one is the best and most powerful.

Works much, much better than other electric chainsaws that i've tried.
