Gary Montgomery: Everything works well and it is the most trouble free saw I have owned. Runs 25-30 min per charge

AARON: Ok, to be clear, I have only used gas chainsaws before this, but didn't have a need for a gas chainsaw with all the upkeep, buying fuel, mixing fuel, so on and so forth. So I saw this during Amazon Prime Day this year (2023) and thought I'd give it a go. FIRST NOTE: I did some review checking between this model and another Greenworks model that had an easy to adjust chain tension, but realized that the easy part could loosen and the chain brake was an electric brake not a mechanical one like this model. So choosing this model became a bit easier. The model I bought came with the 4 ah battery, so I was expecting decent runtime. The day before I used the chainsaw I made sure the battery was cool before charging (it was delivered in July and came hot of course), let it charge fully, and checked the chain tension and such (Side note Greenworks does not send chain oil with the chainsaw, and does not recommend any particular chain oil so purchase a quality chain oil). I am beyond surprised with this chainsaw. I spent the afternoon making a variety of cuts, felling small trees, removing tree-like bushes, and cutting all of that into fireplace useable firewood,...

Paul S.: I was leary of this saw at first, due to the low price point and the "made in China" stigma. But I was very pleasantly surprised. The saw works great. I have 5 acres that I am clearing, and this saw is getting a workout. I did have an issue, about a month after getting the saw. It just quit working. After trying everything I knew to try I contacted the company. Again I was surprised, as I was able to contact a real person very quickly, who was very helpful and professional. She asked me to provide a video of the issue I was having with the saw. Less than 24 hours after sending them the video, I received an email stating that they did feel the saw was defective, and a replacement saw would be sent. It arrived about 3 days later, and I have been using it ever since. I have since bought 2 other Greenworks items.

Steve Rinaldi Music: Living in a hilltop forest, there are always trees and tree limbs falling somewhere around the house. After dealing with gas saws for so long -- with all the upkeep, and having to always have fresh fuel on-hand -- this Greenworks saw has been a perfect replacement! I'm not really sure how long the battery lasts -- but I've been out using it for an hour at a time (cutting some 10"+ material) -- and haven't yet had it run out of battery power. Adjusting and tightening the chain regularly while working (especially when the chain is new) helps keep the chain on the bar. It's quiet -- it's light -- no fumes. Very happy with it.
