  • Better than I expected
Style: 12-Amp Size: 16-Inch
My wife wanted a chain saw to handle some light trimming in our backyard. Obviously a big gas powered saw was overkill, but an electric saw didn't sound like it would handle more than just some of the light trimming she planned. Got the saw with light trimming as the expectation. However, there were some big logs that we wanted shortened and decided to try this saw on them. It probably went slower than if we were using a gas powered monster, but it did the job very well. Now not worried at all about using it on some bigger projects as they develop. Having to use an extension cord is a little bit of a hassle but definitely worth not dealing with the issues of a gas saw - at least for our projects. ... show more

  • Great Value
Style: 12-Amp Size: 16-Inch
Had a the upper 20' of a 14" diameter tree snap off about 10' about the ground during a recent wind. Not wanting a gas engine that would get used very infrequently, and not wanting to invest a lot in this project, I bought this chainsaw. BLUF: it works great. Very easy to setup. It runs smoothly and quietly. And it cuts very well. I had the tree completely cut up in 2hrs and spent 2hrs more hauling it off. Goes like a hot knife through butter on limbs 2-3" in diameter. I even made several cuts of about 14" which is likely more than a 16" bar should do, but it got through quickly and did not overheat. A buddy with a 16" gas chainsaw was doing no better than me on those cuts. Pros: Cuts cleanly and quickly. Quiet (for a chainsaw). Light and maneuverable. No starting hassles. Cons: using an electrical cord is a bit of a hassle, as it gets tangled up in dropped branches as you drag it around, and you want to keep it clear of your cuts for sure. Also the chain does not have a brake, so it spins for 10-20seconds after you complete the cut. Don't be impatient with a chainsaw is generally a pretty good rule to follow though. It could die tomorrow and would still be worth every penny for getting me through this project with no hassles. I'm now eyeing several other "trash trees" in my yard... ... show more

  • Good for first timer
Style: 12-Amp Size: 16-Inch
I never used a chain saw before, so I can't compare it to other ones. I was cutting a multi-branch tree with branches from 10 inch to 16 inch diameter. I used a pole saw and hand saw to get the height down to about 15 feet as it was near my Central A/C unit and a nice peach tree close by. I needed something to cut the tree as the branches were a lot wider toward the base. So far I have made about a dozen cuts with no issues. The chain never came off. I poured any oil left back in the container to prevent leakage of oil when stored. So far, so good. If I encounter any issues as I finish up, I'll update my review. Can't beat this at about $50. ... show more

  • Works great so far.
Style: 12-Amp Size: 16-Inch
I bought this particular unit because I wanted an electric chain saw AND didn't want any doubt about what replacement chains to also purchase. I looked at a number of others and it wasn't clear to me (as a comparative novice) what replacements to use for them, but it was for this one. I have enough trees on my property to heat with wood (they just keep growing back) if necessary in a resource constrained situation (Mad Max, TEOTWAWKI, etc) but figure gasoline might become a problem. I'm already set to go off grid if necessary with solar and a decent inverter, so I figured an electric chain saw would be a good way to go for MODEST firewood production. [For that matter, This unit would work off a decent inverter, a couple of batteries and some panels in a field situation. I don't want to get into the energy economic dynamics of this on an AMAZON review, but again, in a gasoline constrained situation, one would either be saving the gas for the truck, or not use a truck in the first place. If you had to go out into the field for firewood under these circumstances, you might have to plan on being out there for a night to get a load if your solar was insufficient for a full day. ] If I can get 20 cords (2 cords per year) out of this unit, that would be acceptable to me. I did buy a Harbr Freight electric splitter as well and it works surprisingly well. I went with HF only because I figured it'd be a pain to have to return one by mail to Amazon if that became necessary. I have processed one cord, so far (last Fall) (took a while to get to this review) and found the saw satisfactory. It's not super heavily built but again, I'm not taking it into the field or using it professionally. Just remember that keeping your chains SHARP is the key to efficient production and not abusing the saw. I will use my gas saws for firewood this year, keeping the WEN unit for back up - and probably buy one more. ... show more

  • Great chainsaw for the money, with excellent manual and care instructions.
Style: 12-Amp Size: 16-Inch
This is the second electric chainsaw I have owned. The first didn't come with detailed care instructions, and while it worked great out of the box, I didn't really learn how to maintain chain tension properly and eventually I couldn't get it to work consistently. This is not only a great chainsaw for the money, but the instructions were explicit about maintaining the chain. I already did a big job with this saw, and I expect it to last a long time now that I know better how to check it after every ten minutes or so of actual cutting. ... show more

  • leaks chain oil
Style: 12-Amp Size: 16-Inch
this chainsaw comes unassembled. the outside housing is 100% plastic. when not using, be sure to set the chainsaw on something that can absorb the chain bar oil because it leaks out all over the garage shelving.
