  • Solid performer, cuts most small limbs like butter, long battery life
Style: 12" Chainsaw Kit
Very impressed by this well built, lightweight and powerful 12" chainsaw. Needed to clear several small trees and large shrubs and break them all down into fire logs and debris. This chainsaw tackled all the types of wood effortlessly, with girths of from one inch to a maximum of 6-7 inch trunks and limbs. The battery lasted from a full charge throughout three days working, it only needed charging after all was said and done. Easy to use, well balanced, self lubricating with a built-in chain oil reservoir, and easy to disassemble, clean and reassemble the chain and transport after use. Also has a dial to easily tighten and loosen the chain as necessary. And the safety brake between the handle area and chainsaw itself adds another level of protection to avoid accidents. Highly recommend this impressive chainsaw, it does the job and keeps on going. ... show more

  • Lightweight, Powerful, Inexpensive - You get all 3.
Style: 12" Chainsaw Kit
I have Skil's 16 inch 40v saw and like it so much, I started buying some of Skil's 20v tools. Since I now have a pile of 20v batteries, I decided I might as well get a saw that uses them. I absolutely love this saw. It's very lightweight, yet has excellent power. I started with a B&D 20v saw and that served me well for a long time, but this Skil saw is in a different league with MUCH higher chain speed. This thing can cut 4-6 inch branches almost as fast as a gas saw. For bigger stuff, I'll pull out the 40v saw, but I suspect that if you aren't in a hurry, this 20v saw will get through anything the bar is big enough to handle. If you are cutting 6 inch+ logs/branches, you'll probably want additional batteries. For smaller stuff, the 4 amp battery lasts a long time. The whole tool with battery and charger was less expensive than what what some brands charge for just a battery or bare tool. ... show more

  • Perfect for personal yard use
Style: 12" Chainsaw Kit
Great to use with tons of power for handling lots and lots of tree branches in my yard. My only comment is the tricky nature of reattaching the chain on the saw blade-- as a new user of chainsaws, it took a while to line things up correctly the first time. Of course, remember to remove the battery before making any adjustments to the chain! Did I forget to mention that I'm a mature aged woman? If I can handle this, you should be able-- saved a lot of money in the first year alone. I'm ordering replacement chains and chainsaw lubricating oil in advance spring since I know I'll be using my chainsaw a lot. ... show more

  • Just In Time !!
Style: 12" Chainsaw Kit
I like the fact that it really came thru and worked like a CHAMP ! Had a storm last week, trees down blocking driveway, streets blocked by trees , my daughter gets the saw out starts cutting branches and trees, she was amazed at how easy it was to operate and the cutting capability. Really nice saw and for the price can’t go wrong, oh yes I had a gas saw that day ended up using the Skil to finish the job , single charge got wow to many cuts to count. Yes I’m buying another pair!!! Thanks ... show more

Light weight, easy for a woman to use. Always be careful when using equipment for cutting wood. Battery operated, no gas to buy.

  • Automatic oiler doesn't work
Style: 12" Chainsaw Kit
I bought one of these 2 years ago. Had to oil the chain constantly because the oiler never worked properly. Motor stopped working recently. Got another one and the oiler doesn't work right out of the box. Used the recommended bar/chain oil. More than frustrating.

  • A Pleasant Surprise!
Style: 12" Chainsaw Kit
I have a row of hybrid poplars that were planted too close to the power lines, so the power co. topped them. This caused branches to grow out from the trunk; they then grew parallel to the ground and then up. I was using a pole saw to trim the branches when they got close to the power lines. Using a pole saw was strenuous, tedious and time consuming. With the Skil Power Core I could cut the branches off at the trunk. It allowed me to saw off branches that were way above my head. I trimmed all fifteen trees so well my neighbors commented on how nice they looked. I used the saw for three weeks. The battery lasted long enough each day to wear me out. The saw cut far better than I expected, and I loved how quiet it was. (Believe it or not, I did all the cutting with my right arm because my left shoulder is paralyzed.) Maintenance is a snap and can be done with no tools. Just add bar chain oil and tighten the chain before each use and it's good to go. I have three pole saws and two regular chainsaws and the Skill Power Core is now my favorite. No mixing gas or manipulating an eight foot pole around. The saw's a feat of technical engineering. Best of all, it paid for itself after one project. ... show more

  • Great little saw! Easy and powerful (WITH UPDATE!)
Style: 12" Chainsaw Kit
So the only downside I can see is the battery. You can probably only do about 30-45 minutes of work with this. I trimmed a bunch of branches, cut 4-6 inch logs, and took down 2 trees - one of which was about 11-12 inches in diameter. Do I wish this thing had a bit more battery life? Sure. I also wish it was a 14 inch saw instead of 12. But I can also replace the bar and chain with another bar and chain from skill since they have them with the same chain tightening system on some of their other saws. I probably wouldn’t do much bigger than 14 inches though. UPDATE: Had another tree fall partially fall down in our yard. This little saw took that thing apart in a few minutes. Then the took down the rest of the tree (20 inches in diameter shortest distance by 31 longest distance - an oval tree stump). Yes it was a pain in the butt and I had to use some wedges to make sure the saw wouldn’t get stuck under the weight, but that’s a typical thing you’d do anyway when felling a tree. I did end up losing a tooth of the blade in the tree which sometimes happens. The blade is getting a touch full but that’s to be expected after several large trees cut down and parted out. I ended up putting a 14 inch Oregon bar on this as well which fits just fine. I wouldn’t go over 16 inches though, especially on hard wood. Either way, this is possible the best purchase I’ve made ever. It’s so easy and awesome to use and it’s got the torque to cut down some pretty thick and massive trees. I cut down and cut apart several 30-40 feet tall trees with thick bases. Would it have been easier with a pro or pro-lite gas chainsaw? Probably. But at 3-4 times the cost at the very least. ... show more
