Greenworks 40V 16-inch Cordless Brushless Chainsaw with 4Ah Battery and Charger, 20312

What a great deal

Did some serious cutting with this 40 volt Green Work 16" saw and my Green Work's 18 inch 80 volt chain saw. I am slowly cutting some big up to 20 inch large Oak Trees from last hurricane in S.C. I used the 40 volt 16 inch saw to do most of the limb cutting and cut back on the main tree to a certain point. When new you need to check the chain saw tighter about every three or so many cuts to keep chain tight. My chain came loose a couple of times due to looseness and not cutting the large limbs properly. Was no problem to put back on. You have too, even with a gas powered saw. Watch how you cut, so as not to bind the chain. This saw is cuts very well. The 4 amp battery last a good while. Being I am 66 years old. The batteries last much longer than me. I and my wife cut one tree back to one third of tree left . Worked about three hours with both Green Works saws. Batteries did not run down. Had two bars left on both batteries. The 4 Amp batteries are heavier but put out a lot of power and last longer than the 2 AMP batteries. What is left of the tree I will finish cutting down with my 590 Echo Timber Wolf Saw. If you keep your chain saw chains sharp and use these 40 volt Green Works 16 inch and the 18 inch 80 volt Green Works chain saw for what they are designed to do. They work really well. I like both of mine a bunch. Will wait and see how they hold up overtime. With a lifetime warranty on the motor and warranty on the batteries/charger. Great deal. P.S. I bought that Japan made Katanaboy hand saw from Wal- Mart. It is a big winner as well.

This saw is amazing! I certainly can and do recommend it. I have owned gasoline fueled saws in the past and have had to contend with mixing gas and oil, disposing of unused mixture when it became out dated, trying to start a saw that had been unused for a while, and visits to the service center for maintenance. None of that with a Greenworks cordless chainsaw. Just push a button and it's on. The last tree I cut down was a little over 16 inches in diameter and I had no problem with this saw. It's also a dream to use during the stop and go cutting when bucking. My first Greenworks 16”40 volt cordless saw was lost in a recent flood and I didn't hesitate to buy another.

Great pricing and fast shipping from the vendor. Chainsaw has plenty of power and the 4ah battery power is an excellent match for this tool. Easy to clean fiberous debris around the chainsaw's drive mechanism by removal of the side plate.

This is a great chain saw rated %237 on the top batterie operated chain saws. It really works well and does the job as long as you cutting trees around your property

Mine arrived in two days , took only minutes to assemble the bar, and charged in a half hour! I have cut a few trailer loads of hard maple and cherry firewood and have yet to have to tighten the chain or sharpen it. I see I can get a leaf blower that takes this battery and they sell them without battery and charger which saves a lot! I will buy that next.

Cheap chain! Had to replace with a quality chain after two cuts. Cust/ser. said I was cutting something two small %26 could order a new chain on their web site. Ha!!

I have only used the saw for a short test run, but am very happy with it so far. Quieter than expected, and more powerful. I subtracted one star because of the weight; it's a bit too heavy for me to use as I would a lighter, corded chainsaw.

The motor and battery on this unit and overall weight and build indicates a heavy duty unit. BUT, the chain and chain bar are lightweight and chinzy. After 15 minutes of cutting the chain flew off the bar. After reinstalling it and retightening the chain and bar adjustments working ok again. This is not for heavy duty cutting. The motor, however, is pretty heavy duty.

The item comes un-assembled. So sadly after attempting several times I could not get the chain to tighten up. So I took it to a tool repair shop where I discovered that it was the wrong chain for this saw. Obviously someone bought and purposely or inadvertently put the wrong chain back. I would have returned the item but got called away for family emergency. So it's still sitting in my garage. Unused.
