   Fantastic Chain Saw
   This chain saw does a great job! It is very easy to use, it cut through an 8″-10″ oak tree that fell in our side yard like butter, and is relatively light with long battery life. Couldn’t be happier with this purchase. I highly recommend this product!

   I was skeptical, but now I’m impressed!
   I need a chainsaw every few years to down some trees at my cabin in northern Minnesota. I was tired of borrowing or renting a gas chain saw and I never bought one because I didn’t want to deal with long term storage of a gasoline engine. I saw this Greenworks saw at a very good price and I bought it, despite being skeptical of how well it could perform.WOW! The first time I used it my doubts were cast aside. This saw is amazing! As powerful as the gas chainsaws I’ve used before. It’s very quiet compared to a gas saw and there’s no smoke or smell. The battery lasted a long time. I cut up 2 downed 30 foot pine trees and only used half the battery. It will be easy to store and will fire right up anytime I need it. I’m really impressed with this Greenworks saw and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to friends.

   Good power, but not the battery life I was hoping for
   I bought this chainsaw never owning one before. I’ve used a gas one a few times so I’m familiar with them. I had some trees (seen pictured) cut down and the service wanted extra to make them into fire wood so I decided to get a chainsaw myself. I was inspired to get this one off a review by a gentleman who says he uses it for logging and no longer uses his gas one. I decided to give it a try.First impression, it is powerful enough to cut through some moderate sized logs. It didn’t buck or slow down. Set up was straight forward. I did use YouTube to put the chain on cause I couldn’t understand the directions on how to tighten the chain, but that’s likely on me. I was able to cut through two large trunk portions and 4 dead branches and cut them into firewood, as pictured, until the battery wore out. This took about 45 minutes. I only had one battery so I was done at the point. It was quiet enough that my soon was able to stand at a safe distance and marvel at the peak performance of a man his daddy was.All in all, 4/5 stars were given because I was hoping to get more cutting done before I had to charge the battery. Green power batteries are relatively cheap so I will likely get 2 more. Easy set up, it’s a cool looking chainsaw, it’s not too heavy, and there’s no gas maintenance to be done. Chain is sharp from the factory. For $135, I am not disappointed!

   This Chinese battery chainsaw outperformed all my expectations
   The main issue with this saw is the brand new chain cutter links are so short that they look like a worn out chain that is about to be thrown away. But I cut half of a cord of blown down oak, the limbs and the 20″ trunk using less than 3 charged batteries, WOW! I was so impressed that when my wife (we are both recently retired) told me she wanted to upgrade from a snow shovel to a little snow blower, I recommended that she buy the Green Works 12″ snowblower package for about $200. No snow yet on the apron in front of the house yet to try the snowblower yet, but the extra 40v battery and extra battery charger looked like the perfect addition to the chainsaw! We can now go out in the morning and I cut oak firewood while she shuffles blocks of wood and branches for about 45 minutes, we split the wood with a 20 ton gas powered splitter pulled behind the 4 wheeler, go back home and put BOTH batteries on the 2 chargers on a timer set for 3 hours to avoid cooking the batteries (especially during end of the day charging), eat lunch and relax a bit and then go out in the afternoon and repeat the process with a LOT less noise and no yanking on that recoil starter rope of my 30 year old Jonsered 535 gas saw that has no decompression valve! ( I had shoulder rotator cuff surgery a couple of years ago) We are VERY HAPPY so far, I just hope the batteries last a couple of years. As far as the folks making comments about the oil tank leaking, or the chain falling off, or the chain oiler not working (enough oil for about 1 hour run time) or short battery run time, and regular bar oil works just fine by the way. I honestly believe that they are wanna-be lumberjacks that have NO past chainsaw experience to know how to set-up and safely operate such a well built product. I honestly (honestly, for ONCE in my life) highly recommend this CHINESE product! It works GREAT! As I mentioned earlier, the cutting links on the original chain are too short to sharpen more than a couple of times, but that’s the only issue I have had after cutting my second face cord of big oak today! This saw is NOT a toy! We have so far cut 2/3 of our firewood to heat our home this winter! Update… attached pics are the 1/2 cord of oak wood I cut using a total of 3 charged batteries.The trailer bed is 8 feet long, 40″ wide, and the pile averages 26″ high. I like the saw so much I bought 2 new Oregon chains #R56 (fits PERFECT!) and use my same old Timber Tuff CS-BMM benchtop electric chain saw sharpener with the 3/16″ wheel (@$50) for a REALLY sharp chain with great results, much better than a Dremel type tool with a 5/32″ bit I used at first on both saws! Timber Tuff does not have a 5/32″ grinding wheel available for that model sharpener. Even though it is 1/32″ wider than the Greenworks and Johnsered 5/32″ chains specify. It only makes a little nick in the main part of the chain that has never been an issue, and the saw power is not affected by the slightly deeper cut the chain makes. Don’t worry, be happy! And GO CUT SOME WOOD!

   Great saw
   This is a bigger saw than i thought it would. Took me alittle while to get used to the weight. The saw itself is made out of hard plastic and actually quite light, but when you add the battery, it becomes substantially heavier. I am, however, a 72 year old women, so consider the source. I had to laugh, my brother thought I would need a spare battery, but this one lasts every bit as long as I do. I absolutely LOVE the ease of use. I’ve struggled with starting my gas chainsaws for years. Stuffing my foot in the handle to hold the saw down to pull the cord was always a challenge. On this, all I do is release the chain brake, hold down the button and pull the trigger. Button and trigger are easily reached with one hand. I am impressed with the power. Especially if you are a woman, get an electric saw! The chain oil lasts a seriously long time compared to gas chainsaws. There is no smoke to deal with and cleaning it is a breeze. My Husqvarnas always had a build up of chain oil and saw dust on the inside. With this, it’s very minimal. Anyone want to buy a couple of Husqvarna 450s? Also good chainsaws, but it’s battery operated tools for me from now on.

   Great little saw. Cut down 11 medium sized trees the first day. Barely used any battery life. Very sturdy product.

   El producto me parece bueno, pero me decepcionó, que la batería que viene no la G-MAX, que se supone es mas nueva y reciente, además, que es el modelo que le corresponde a la sierra que también es G-MAX.He intentando que me lo cambien, pero el vendedor no me ha hecho caso… en fin… mal servicio…

    I ordered this green works 16” chainsaw. Once it arrived it would not tighten the chain . The knob for tightening the chain is defective . I have requested a refund from the Seller and have not heard back from the seller YEERAS in over three weeks. I am left with a lemon and have no way to cut my winter firewood, and have been ripped off over $400 .Amazon has no option to contact them to make a formal complaint. The seller has left and I have no way to get my refund for a no good , defective item that will not cut wood.
