I am pleased with the saw, I will keep it, because returning is too much trouble and won't guarantee a solution. I expect I will have to do some machining of the battery slots to make it usable, and to avoid ultimately doing damage to the tool by the extreme force required to install and remove batteries.
I'M SO GLAD I DID. It's so easy to use with the battery pack (just charge it up and add oil and you're ready to go), and while it does not cut through wood like butter like you might see with a full-size gas-powered chainsaw ... it gets the job done. Unless you have a forest to tend to, this is likely the perfect machine for you.
The battery lasts longer than I expected based on some other reviews, and while, again, I wouldn't really want to tackle cutting down a full-size tree with this ... I think it COULD get the job done!
The flexibility to also use it as a chainsaw is great in terms of both cost- and space-saving. The main thing to be aware of is, as other reviewers have noted, this little chainsaw at the end of a long pole gets surprisingly heavy. I'm a 6-1, 200 lb. male, and it's a workout when you have the pole extended all the way. My 5-7, 130 lb. wife simply can't do it at max extension. So, if you're *primary* need is the max extension of the polesaw, I would recommend you look elsewhere. But if it's just something you're going to use once in a while, you'll love the flexibility and overall ease of use of this great tool!
* footnote: I added a strap from the top of the extension clamp to the provided loop near the bottom trigger. I just used an old carrying strap and some 1/4" rope to make the top loop to hold my strap. I put the entire strap over my head and let it rest on my shoulder to take all the weight of the rig while my top hand is just guiding and stabilizing the cut. Some poles saws provide this kind of strap, but not this company as of this review.
My only real criticism is that the ergonomics of the lower trigger and safety release could have been worked out a bit better. But on the objective side, I have only done about 6 cuts with the pole and it could just need some practice!
The opposite experience with this product was not expected, but it is the result.
The good: it's light weight. It looks nice.
The rest: First, the numerously emblazoned "Auto-Tensioning!" Ha! "Auto?' "you keep using that word..."
What it really means is "you must turn the knob, by hand (that would be manually) after almost every cut or your chain will jump it's track. Guess how well that works with a pole saw and a reach of 10'. Yes, Vut; lower saw; pull in; tighten tensioner. Now, when your chain does jump, and it will, good luck getting it back on. There are a dozen ways to fail in getting the cover/"auto" tensioner back on and only one way to succeed. And there's no indication of the proper way. It's a roll of the dice. A light plastic cover with one thumb screwed bolt/knob is all that holds the chain down and tensions it, manually. Really disappointment that a company who could make such an outstanding product could also put out this.
I had purchased a battery chainsaw several years ago and accepted the limitations of the technology at that time, this Worx brand performs much better with good battery life and impressive cutting ability. I own several gas Chainsaws for heavy work, but I could see this model as a suitable product for the average homeowners needs and would serve them well.
Just a couple of things that are not great but acceptable are the 2.0 amp/hour battery recharge time is about 5 hours with the included charger, so it would be wise to plan your work or have a spare battery, and when using the extension pole the bar and chain are hidden from view so you need to be sure you have it placed in the desired spot as you place the saw.
After using this saw to cut several 5" to 8" trees down and clean them up I am well pleased with performance, battery life, and ease of use.
I was originally skeptical of the chain speed (expecting something closer to my Milwaukee 18v lithium reciprocating saw which is a beast) but it got the job done. Just annoyed about the chain falling off. Luckily that never happened to my Husqvarna 460 Rancher gas saw.
The battery that comes with it has about the life you would expect and you will get tired and run out of battery about the same time. I purchased an extra battery that is a little stronger and holds a charge longer. It can go longer than I can!
