No need to bring out the big boy when you're doing smaller jobs. This smaller model is perfect for cutting smaller branches. Pruning my gigantic ornamental peach tree was a breeze, something that would not have been possible with a larger, much heavier chainsaw. A nice carrying case and one of my favorite features, two batteries, use one while the other charges.
I had some bushes that had overgrown their welcome and using this little chainsaw I was able to trim them all back in no time flat. It was very easy to use and came on time and with all the extras advertised.
I looked at other saws to cut some branches that were in the way of my walk path. I didn't want to spend a lot of money since I hardly use these so I came across this and it was perfect. Cuts like butter and has a great safety device so you want cut yourself.
I prune apple trees for a living and was looking for something that could ease the strain on my shoulders and elbows from hand sawing all day. Took a chance on this saw after reading the reviews and it is one of my most useful tools. I can carry the saw in one hand cut and pull branches away with the other. I have cut branches 4 to 5 inches in diameter. Glad I own one it has lessened the wear and tear on my arms.
The person that does maintenance in our yard was out of town, two of our trees were almost hitting our heads and the tools available at home were not enough to tackle those branches. This small chainsaw took care of everything. It is small, light and powerful. It cut through branches 2 or more inches thick with no problem. It comes in a nice-looking hard case and includes an extra battery and chain. Kudos.
