Black Max 38cc 2-Cycle Engine 18-inch Gas Chainsaw

for the price, this little machine can not be beat, I had a huge tree fall, and this chainsaw cut like butter, start on first pull, used for a straight hour with no issues, Best chainsaw ive ever had.

Bought this to cut up some downed trees in the yard. This Black Max 18" Chainsaw did the trick. It started on the second pull and after letting it warm up for a few minutes, it was doing it's job. A job that I thought would take all morning took about 30 minutes to do. I would highly recommend this chainsaw.

Great saw, it compares quit nice to my Husky, easy to start, chains are easy to find, I heat with wood and needed a backup saw for when my huskies are down for repairs or awaiting chain replacement.

I have the BLACK MAX 18" chainsaw, and let me tell you this tool is awesome!! This chainsaw is so easy to use. I really love that this comes with an enclosed hard plastic case that you can put your chainsaw away when you are done using it. Also another great safety feature would be the hard plastic blade cover that you put on when you are finished, this just keeps everyone safe from being cut when this is not in use. The chainsaw has a chain brake and a tip guard. This tool is only 12 pounds so it is not overly heavy, it is easy enough to carry and get the job done. When using this tool you will notice how smooth it works, is has a anti-vibe system which helps when cutting. When you get this chainsaw, you can open the box and use it right away. I have a lot of trees in various sizes in my back and front yard and this chainsaw cuts with ease. It has a lot of built in power so you don't have to worry about getting small or big jobs done. In order to keep your chainsaw running without any problems they recommend that you use BLACK MAX oil. This is a top quality and very reliable tool that is a must have in your garage!!!

As others have complained it bogs/ Hesitates when you give it the gas. I had to buy the special tool to adjust the high speed mixture screw (double D screwdriver) a half turn counter- clockwise Now it's a sweetheart! I suppose with all the clean air regulations you can't buy a gas powered tool that runs great anymore. The tool was only 3 bucks online. I actually bought a set of 10 different drivers for 12 bucks because small engines are my hobby and these tamper resistant screws are used on all sorts of small engines. I wish they would go back to standard slotted head screws.

It worked great the 1st two times my husband used it. He really bragged on this saw until he tried using it some weeks ago and it would not work. He tried last weekend and again today with no avail. He thought maybe it was the gas so he threw out all the gas he previously mixed and added new gas. It still doe not work. We bought it as a birthday present in June. Definitely returning this one for a refund.

It worked for a little bit and then it stopped. The chain keeps coming off and now the safety Somehow got broken and it won't start at all. Don't waste your money just put that hard earned cash towards a quality chainsaw that way you're not in the same boat that I am and having to figure out how to come up with Money to replace it. Definitely get the extended warranty on it. You're gonna need it! We bought ours in August of 22 and now it's April of 23.

Got this 5 days ago. Took it back today. it broke after running for 10 minutes. It broke a bolt or a pin not sure up by the blade and broke the plastic gard when it did.

Would not recommend for long cuts or someone who needs a reliable chainsaw. Used once and it's now junk. Plastic melted as I was using it and I can't adjust the chain.

How do I go bout shipping it back to get it fixed? Used it one time and it quit and store want take it back because it’s over 90 days . I just want it fixed not my money back
