Product Description

The powerful 16” 14.5 Amp Electric Chainsaw is packed with modern conveniences that make it easy to use. The auto-tensioning and auto-lubrication systems make sure this saw is always in peak operating condition. These features provide the user with a perfectly tightened and well-oiled chain, which not only significantly increases the cutting efficiency, but also extends the life of the tool. And the built-in oil tank has a window, so you can see just how much oil you have left. The chain brake shuts the chain down quickly when you need it to. The metal spike bumper grabs into the wood so you have a safer, smoother cut. And the specially designed full-wrap front handle and rear rubber grip give you options to find a comfortable hand-hold. This saw has a 14” cord. The extension cord holder keeps them out of the way and lets you unravel more as you need to. And it’s only 11 lbs without the oil, so anyone can carry it around the yard and use it for long periods. The 14.5 Amp motor uses a 120V~60 Hz power supply and spins the chain at 32 ft/s. The 16” chain will fell a standing tree of 16” in diameter and easily cut up a 30” log that is already on the ground. That chain has 57 links, and a pitch of 3/8”, and a gauge of 0.05”. This is a rugged chainsaw, made so that anyone can tackle backyard projects with confidence.

Customers are mixed about the quality of the chainsaw. Some mention that it's a very nice medium duty chainsaw that cuts well and is well built. Others say that the chain does not stay tensioned well, is less durable, and less shock resistant than steel. The clutch went bad, and the chain went flying.

Fatal flaw
3 Stars
Fatal flaw
I actually loved this saw for a few years and cut quite a bit of wood with it. But then I used it one more time and it stopped cutting. The motor runs but the chain doesn't move. I took it apart to find out why and discovered the fatal flaw. The main drive gear is plastic! The teeth wore off over time as shown in the photo. I went to buy a replacement gear and found that they are no longer available. Odd, since you can still buy this same saw model brand new. The bottom line is that Worx expects a short life for a non repairable tool. I could recommend the saw to someone with one or two small jobs in mind, but not for many jobs over the long haul.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very decent saw for occasional use
Reviewed in Canada on February 25, 2017
The day I received this saw, I used it to cut some of Elm logs that were donated to me, ranging in diameter from 12 to 16 inches. I made many cuts across and along the logs, filled two yard waste bags with chainsaw sawdust. I have no complaints about the saw! Sometimes it had to cut in the entire length of its bar, and it kept on cutting, not bogging down.

Here are some points that I think are important (I am a first time chainsaw owner):

1. Get a 4L container of chain oil. The little bottle that comes with the saw will get used very quickly
2. The saw came with a very short (about one foot long) cord with a "funny" plug on the end. I was quite surprised - usually when you buy an electric tool, you are able to plug it into a wall outlet, but not with this saw. You need to buy a proper extension cord to use it.
3. I found that the bar was getting very hot at times. When I removed the cover to clean up around the drive gear, I noticed that the gear was also quite hot. The motor was never hot, by the way. I wonder what the official duty cycle of this saw is, but it is obviously not designed to be used for hours with no breaks. I am going to remember to let it cool down periodically when using it. However, I was really pushing it to the limit - I was burying the entire length of the bar in the wood at times.

Overall, I feel that this saw has plenty of power to cut even 16"+ wide logs. It's certainly powerful enough for most applications. The biggest unknown to me is how long it will last. It has 3 years warranty, and I feel that for the price I paid, this saw will not owe me anything after 3 years of service.
