40V MAX Lithium-Ion 12 in. Cordless Chainsaw Kit (2 Ah)

First of all, my experience with Black and Decker is that they keep on working! My kitchen is now completely B%26D because they are the ones that never need to be replaced. I've made 2 pots of coffee daily for over 10 years and my `Dust Buster ` is working fine after 20 years of use with the original battery! NOW, the 12" 40 Volt Chainsaw is simply a cinch to use. Today, I cut up about a dozen 5" %26 6" thick trees and cut down a few branches. I haven't tried it on any logs though. I have no doubt that it will do just fine. It only used up one power level light when I finished. Just a couple of notes. The first battery charge takes nearly 5 hours. It has lots of juice! The chain tension adjustment is ingenious and it leaks ZERO chain oil. I feel that had I purchased this sooner, I wouldn't have had to replace my last couple of saws. I can't be more pleased with it! It's a good one!

B%26D is really a good brand..Cuts easy on branches and bathe battery life was great.. Item was received on time as promised..

My husband was skeptical when I told him I ordered this chainsaw to trim the alder & small trees on our property. However from the time he hit the start button he was super impressed & the old gas chainsaw remains in the garage. Lightweight and most importantly QUIET! We love it and have told all our friends about it & two are now proud owners also.

After receiving the chainsaw, I was a little disappointed to find it would take 5 hours to charge the battery. I put it on the charger yesterday afternoon & this morning I took it outside for a "test drive". Oh my gosh - I am impressed!!! First, I cut up a large tree (about 14" diameter) that had come down over my fence. Then I worked on cutting saplings that were 2-6" in diameter. Also cut them into pieces that were small enough for me to drag. I'm a 65 yr old woman who is not in the best physical shape but I found this chainsaw very easy to use. With the weight of my old 14" gas chainsaw, I could only work for about 40-60 minutes before my arms & back were too tired to go any further. And, I had yet another gas engine to maintain. This morning, I worked for 1 hr 45 min with my new chainsaw. Sawing, dragging debris to the back, sawing, dragging...... I wore out before the battery did - it was starting to slow down a bit, but I just couldn't do any more. Now I'm thinking the 5 hr recharge won't be a problem because it's going to take a lot longer for my arms and back to recharge!!!!! HA!!! LOVE this chainsaw!

I wasn't able to confirm what was included in this order. Package includes 40 V battery and charger.

The chainsaw works good, but it does go through the bar oil fast.

I order this chainsaw for my wife. It didn't come with a battery. I double checked to make sure I had ordered the one that comes with a battery, cause I know they offer a bare tool also, and I had ordered the one with a battery.

At this time, I am not happy with this purchase. The battery that was shipped with the B%26D 40 volt chainsaw was defective and would not charge, so I have not been able to use the chainsaw or give proper feedback as to how well it works. Supposedly they are sending a replacement, but at this point, nothing has arrived. IF a replacement battery does arrive, I would be happy to update, and give a proper review of the chainsaw performance. That seems like a big IF at this time.

Item was shipped without a battery, even though the listing clearly showed the battery to be included, and the writeup stated how wonderful the battery life was. Item was returned immediately.

This thing has no power at all,after about 5 times of Barely using it I couldn’t cut through a 3 inch branch. I took it back and bought a real chainsaw cheaper than this and work a 10000!!! Times better.
