Mini Chainsaw - Mini Chainsaw 6 Inch, Cordless Chainsaw, Mini Chainsaw Cordless for Branch Wood Cutting, Garden Pruning, Tree Trimming(Electric Chainsaw 2 Battery 2 Chain 1 Bag)

March 2022I tend to be skeptical about the quality of products, so I was skeptical of this one.What a pleasant surprise. This mini chainsaw is small, light, ergonomic, and powerful (relative to its size).My bona fides are that I own several Stihl pro chainsaws, a Stihl carving chainsaw, and a Stihl pole saw, and King-Arthur chainsaw blades for my grinder, so I’m no stranger to chainsaws. I use them almost daily and I’m never without one fully fueled, oiled, and sharpened.My problem was getting into tight places to cut invasive vines strangling trees. This little baby does it and it does it admirably well. I even cut through a six-inch ash branch, although I had to spproach it from various sides to cut through.I read the reviews, and many buying these minis are noobies using chainsaws.FOR THE NOOBIES (beginners):Chainsaws do the work, so don’t saw back and forth with them as you would a manual handsaw. Just hold the mini to the branch as close to the hilt of the mini as possible, and let her sink in and chew.Always position your body and face to the side when you’re cutting. Never have your face in line with the path of the blade.With this mini’s design, get into the habit of putting your trigger finger along the side of the saw when you aren’t cutting - as one does with a firearm. Keep your finger AWAY from that front trigger when you're walking around or moving over to the next branch. Make this a habit, second nature, for your safety. Respect the tools you use.Buy a small can of WD-40 or other lube spray, and keep your chain lubed for heat-build-up reduction to extend the life of your chain. Spray it every few minutes when it’s looking dry.*******If I could add design modifications to this mini,I’d add a small self-lubricating well (although it will add weight), andI’d add a small safety lock button near the trigger, like on a BB gun.Very nice, useful, fun little tool. Highly recommended.UPDATE:MAY 2022The only issue I’ve had since March is one of the two batteries stopped working in April. It must have been an old battery or a defective battery. I don’t want to send it back, but I may consider it because batteries are so expensive these days. The saw has been consistently good.I’m no fan of woefully expensive, battery-powered anything. I’d prefer a small gas-powered tool with no batteries as batteries are highly destructive to the planet.

I previously purchased & returned another brand of a 6” hand saw. Quality control or better said, lack of, was evident from the moment I opened the box. Along w/lack of quality, the handle was too big & hard for me to grip & it was heavy, which would make it difficult to use.I then selected this hand saw & I love it! As a 70yr old gal, with small hands, what immediately struck me was how easy it is to hold. The kit contained everything you need, minus chain lubricant. I do dribble a few drops on chain as I use it, although there is no instruction regarding using it. There is a chain guard, which I like. With this saw I’ve cut limbs from 1/4” to 3” or more & this saw handled it all! I’m still on the 1st battery & love that it comes with 2, so I can keep on working. Charge time per battery was approx 2 hrs when it arrived - it may have been shorter - I had placed 1 on charger & happened to check it @ 2 hrs & it was done & the same w/2nd. The kit has a carrying case, safety glasses, gloves, an extra chain & the tools to maintain it, the 2 batteries & charger. I put the chain lubricant into a 2 oz drip bottle & it fits in fine. It would be nice if the case was a hard case, but it is a soft case w/zipper, for storage. An inexpensive toolbox will work if I need to replace down the line, so it’s not a major issue for me. I would encourage anyone who’s doing fall/spring cleanup & wants to trim bushes & more, to add this tool to your package. It is so much easier than hand nippers or other hand tools to cut limbs. If you’ve never used a chain saw, this is a good starter one, it should be respected, it is a chain saw, but it is not intimidating to use. I’ve used various size electric & battery ones (gas ones are too heavy & too hard for me to start) for bigger projects, but for the small stuff - this is the right tool for the job. I’ve already recommended it to a couple of my girlfriends.

This is an extremely useful handy tool. Works really well. The only downside is that the included batteries do not last very long, both in terms of capacity and cycle life. I have bought an aftermarket replacement battery, and it seems to work much better now.

I bought this for climbing trees and cutting fairly large branches without lugging my 14" electric or 16" gas chainsaw up into trees. Perfect for medium to lightweight cutting. Makes the job a breeze. Blade very sharp. Battery seems to last quite a while, but have not exhausted it yet in less than an hour. Cuts easily into fresh wood with ease, but is bounces off brittle dead wood - so you have to be more careful and apply more pressure due to its lightweight design. Wish it had a blade guard for storage so it wouldn't scratch batteries or cord while in bag. Safety glasses or very cheep and uncomfortable...sharp plastic edge cuts into your skin under your eyes and sit on your face a a weird downward angle....worthless. Didn't bother with the cloth gloves. KEEP THIS AWAY FROM CHILDREN! This is no toy! A 5 year old could easily hold with both hands and compress the safety switch and push the easy push trigger too easily...very dangerous!

The media could not be loaded.  Obviously the size is what attracted me to this tool but the reason I like it so much is that you just grab it and go cut whatever needed doing. The saw is lightweight (I have a pole saw and that thing wears me out trying to use it) and fast cutting. Safety is taken into consideration with gloves packed in with the saw. I had a bunch of like 2 inch limbs that I needed to cut and this was the perfect thing to use so 5 Stars for a real deal and a superb idea. I also love the fact they included 2 batteries so there should not be a problem with running out of power

loved it the ist season but did no hold up a year later.

Great little saw, very handy.

CUTTING SOME CAMPFIRE WOOD MOSTLY.

We've had a good time getting at some of the things that where too big for the clippers! I bought a small thing of chainsaw oil to keep it running great!

Chain keeps coming off

Love it
