I was very surprised by the power this little saw had. Prior to this chainsaw, I used a DEWALT reciprocating saw and it would take about 20 minutes to get through a downed tree. I have cut trees about 8 inches in diameter in under 20 seconds with the chainsaw. Smaller branches take under 10 seconds to cut. For cleaning up downed trees, it was a chore using a gas powered since I only needed the saw to run a couple of minutes, shut it down, restart it for another couple of minutes, and repeat. I can't believe how aggravating that was until I tried this electric saw. Since I don't use the saw on a regular basis, it also means not throwing away old gasoline every time I need to use it. I actually highly recommend this saw. The only reason for 4 stars is that the automatic oiler does leak between usage. How well it performs way out weighs a little bit of oil leaking.

Definitely designed for occasional use. Camping is what I bought it for, quite light wood gathering. Not really a full size 2 hand saw and not a balanced top handle either. Cheap battery saw when quite / easy work is the goal. Power is fine with a light hand but definitely much heavier carry weight than expected and not balanced well with any size battery I tried. Yes it leaks bar oil. Yes it oils well. Cheap homeowners saw or occasional camping, definitely not a every day or Construction saw. And definitely not a climbing aaw.... on a nice note, no vibration, inexpensive,

As we all know we are in the digital age and this is an example of things to come.this little saw is impressive I bought it to do some small clearing. Small brush and then tree or two.... at first I was giggly it looks like a toy .... as my day wore on i was able to get more work done because i didnt spend one ounce of energy strarting the saw and i was not gassed out by fumes and about an hour inside the job .... i decided that this is a very good swithch from gasoline to cordless ..... as i had other dewalt tools and was impressed at how much power it had and how much it kept throughout the task. I am sold on the new tools the simply work great and i will be keeping a gasoline saw to bail out with i know this is going to work out just perfect....thanks dewalt for great products i love and will keep on buying your tools...!!!helping to make america great again.... i am amazed at how far tech has reached out.... keep up the good work dewalt.....Read full review

Make sure to get the DeWalt branded chain saw oil and fill your well before trying it out. Some YouTube videos suggest vegetable oil - DO NOT DO THAT! The instructions in the pamphlet are not easy to follow nor do they provide enough information. You will need to watch several YouTube videos on safety and usage first. Otherwise the product is excellent. It is built for smaller jobs. Don't expect to get out there and cut down a 70 foot pine! If a tree goes down because of a storm, you can easily use this thing to take the limbs down while waiting for a pro to come with proper equipment to dispose of the rest of the tree. It is easy to get overconfident with this thing because of the size. IT IS STILL A CHAIN SAW. Be careful - wearing eye protection is a must.

My husband, a Forester and teacher of Forestry use to do all the wood cutting. I remember him sitting on the back of the Dodge Ram carefully filing each toorh of his chain saw he was to use that day. Unfortunity, the "love of my life" passed away and now it's time for me and my older boys to do the cutting. I didn't want a long blade. Dangerous enough the lengths he used. So I got a short blade to start with. It's a nice weight and balance for me and as soon as the fallin trees are dry enough we're gonna get to it. Perfect fit for me and my two older boys. Thanks Dewalt. Lynn
