BOUGHT IT FOR THE WIFE

Reviewed in the USA on 2014-03-23T17:00:00

I just used the pole saw version to take down a 25 foot river birch (stump in picture) over a period of three days (battery needed recharging and I cut it up for firewood). I bought this handheld version for the wife because she didn't like the long handle of the pole saw. Now we have two saws and three batteries (bought a spare) so that we can use these tools longer to speedup the jobs that can't be done with hand loppers. Of course, for the really big jobs, I still have to take out the gas chain saw, gasoline, oil and rags. Otherwise, for the smaller or no rush jobs, these battery saws (no extension cord required) are really handy. But remember, that they won't take a whole tree down in just one day with just one battery. But for certain jobs they are the perfect, no mess, no fuss, wife can do it herself, fast and easy tools.

This is the second one of these I have had. The other was purchased about 4 years ago and I have cut down some pretty big trees with it. It is the best thing I have ever owned. I still have the other one but I bent the bar and by the time I replaced that I figured something else might break on it. I figured I had easily got my moneys worth. It is lightweight and easy to use. I just love it.

This chain saw will not transform you into a lumberjack over night, however it is perfect for the little jobs the come up around the house. I used it to clean up all the of dead or "in the way" limbs and trees in our property line this past weekend. I could get about 15 cut's out of a battery when I was tackling logs over 4", with littler, less then 1", limbs I would get about 40 minutes of cut time. We also have have a Black and Decker weed trimmer, so in total we have three batteries. This was nice because we could keep rotating the batteries and pretty much keep working throughout the day. I did notice that the weed trimmer batteries did not last as long as the battery supplied with the saw. I think number 11 in this link explains the reason for that: http://www.blackanddecker.com/18v/string_trimmer_edger/battery_information.aspx Lastly I did a lot of research and found a lot of reviews that complained of a "leaky" oil tank. I used the proper bar and chain oil that any other chain would use and I have had no problem. Of course if some one puts 5w-30, as I saw in one review, then you will have a leaky mess because 5w-30 is extremely thin. Remember to push and hold the oil button for 3-4 seconds with the thick oil in and the saw will work like it is supposed to!

Our second purchase of this chain saw. Plenty of power for small jobs. Assembles easily. Good strength for many small jobs. Loved the first chain saw. Unfortunately, didn't read the instructions, left plugged in over winter and fried it. READ THE INSTRUCTIONS! If you aren't a lumberjack, this is plenty!

I was afraid as slow as the chain rotates compared to a corded version it wouldn't cut, but does its job very good! It uses up battery power a little fast but i managed to get a 18 volt drill for only $19.Battery alone is over $30! So now i have 2.keep oil in it and oil often.Never was able to find a extra chain at my walmart.$99 Price is too high.Something like this should sell for $50-$75.

Easy to carry and maneouver. Granted, isn't as powerful as one of the gas powered machines, but that's just fine. The battery is interchangeable with another B & D tool I have, so- another advantage. The battery runs down quickly, so would recommend having another one available. Had a little trouble installing the chain (helps to have a third hand!) but all in all assembly was ok. Chain oil is not included, so remember to purchase some.

Very slow shipping it took 2 weeks to get, when there was 1 at my local store and they did not tell me, and then it was a different model than I ordered it was a type 2 did not have the onboard oiling system like the one I ordered which was a type 1 with the onboard oiling system so now you have a little bottle you oil the chain and bar with! But it does work good for cutting wood for the fire ring small stuff!

Was pleased after using it today for the first time. Cut bigger limbs than I thought, but does seem to run out of juice a little quicker than my pole saw. Still lasts a decent amount of time though. The fact that it uses the same battery as my drill and pole saw is an added bonus. I get tired before the 4 batteries I have do

I found my little chain saw to be a handy device to own. Being cordless makes it easy to use. It might be better if the charge lasted longer. I have a large bush I am taking down a section at a time and so far the saw is doing a great job.

I was hoping that this one would be different, but its about course for the par for B&D. The Chain Saw itself is very nice. Has plenty of power, to start with, easy to use, and fairly light. There are a few things that could be better. The front of the saw next to the blade has a piece with ridges on it to butt the saw up against the log that your cutting and keep it from bouncing and to grip the log so that you can lever the saw down into its cut. I'm not sure what that piece is called, but having it made out of plastic is a bad choice. Something like that should have been made from cast aluminum. After the short time that I've used mine the plastic ridges are already worn down and mashed. The bigger gas engine chain saws have a piece there with long sharp steel points to grip the log that its cutting. Other than that, my only complaint is the battery. I've looked into getting an extra one or two so that I can swap them out and keep cutting for more than 30 minutes, but which one is the best? I found at least 6, 18-volt B&D batteries that run from $36 to $79-( that's as much as the saw by itself!) and one pair that was $109. But cant find which one has the longest life. I've also found 2 different generic batteries that say they are extended life for the B&D tools and one was $39 and the other was $90 for a pair. Even the B&D web site isn't any help. They say that one type of the 18-V batteries are for the smaller low power draw tools like the drill and the other type is for the high power drawing tools like the chain saw and hedge clippers. But they don't say which one is for which! I had the same problem with the B&D Versa Pack Tools that took the long round batteries. They started out great but the batteries die after just a short use time and after only a few cycles they wont take a charge. And again, a new pair of batteries for the drill cost more than the drill did. The first time that I used this chain saw I managed to cut down 3 small apple trees that winter killed last year. All together I got about 12 cuts out of it in about 30 minutes before the battery died. I was cutting pieces that were from 1”- 1.5” dia. Up to 3”- 3.5” dia. The only reason it lasted 30 minutes is that I'm a slow mover due to a bad back. That's part of the reason I bought this small saw, so that it wouldn't be so hard for me to use. Instead of getting just another battery I bought the other battery powered chain saw with the gator grip lower jaw. It's still charging so I haven't had a chance to try it yet so that will be tomorrow. Over all, once you get a good supply of batteries with the low trickle chargers that keeps them topped off this will be a nice little saw. The main reason I bought this chain saw is that its nice and quiet. I'm a amateur wood turner and with this little battery powered saw I can take it out in the mountains with me and use it to cut out some choice turning pieces of wood from dead falls. And do it without getting in trouble or accused of cutting firewood without a permit. So if you have a similar use in mind this saw will work great. It would probably work great for doing chain saw art in soft wood like Aspen or Poplar. But if you're expecting to cut a bunch of firewood with it, forget it. If it wasn't for the problem with the Batteries and the lack of information from B&D about them I would have gave this 5 stars. But since the battery is such an important part of this they really need to work on it. And make them a little cheaper too! Would you buy an electric car that the batteries for it cost as much as the car did?
