Excellent value

This is a great chainsaw. I had no problem cutting trees down. The saw has plenty of power.

No gas issues

I love this electric chainsaw. It starts everytime. No more pulling and pulling trying to get it to start. No more issues with carbureator rebulding. And with 4HP, it has plenty of power & speed to match those $200 gas models at Home Depot, Lowes, etc. It's more than just a limb saw. I used it to cut down several good size trees up to 2' in diameter plus cut up the trunk for removal from the property. For many homeowner users, this will be a great choice for a general purpose chain saw. Only negative is no case (just a plastic sleeve for the chain). But still a strong value for the $.

Poulan 18" Electric Chainsaw

This chainsaw arrives much faster than expected, free by air. The 18" size was just what I needed for cutting slabs of redwood. I would highly recommend this product. The only weakness is that extra chains are not offered by the same supplier, a back-up chain is always desirable to have.
