It just won't quit
5 Stars
It just won't quit
This sucker blew threw about 4 cords of solid eucalyptus with some rounds maxing out the length of the bar. I adjusted the chain twice which only requires releasing a single spring clip. Chain never fell off, never overheated even in 100+ weather and never felt squirrelly, cheap or like it was gonna explode. Extremely robust build quality with good balance and minimal vibration. It is slower than a gas chainsaw but I'll take that over having to deal with rip starts, maintenance, mixing and filling fuel. There is nothing you can do that I didn't do that can stop this thing when used appropriately. So glad I didn't buy the cheaper option.
