I have a lot of top quality tools and this one is a standout. I would give it six stars if possible. So much easier to use than a gas saw and so much quieter. The tool oozes quality. I am SO GLAD I bought this over one of the cheaper options.
Wow was I surprised. The chain is a low kickback, that stays sharp much longer than full chisel designs and I cut 12-14" pines into pieces 15 inch lengths for about 6 hours the first Saturday, and it didn't even need sharpening, continuing throughout to send shreaded chips out, rather than the more dusty material all chains do when they become dull. If you have plenty of experience with Kickback - here's another great surprise.The Oregon chain 91VXL056G professional. You simply won't believe how aggressive this saw becomes, and it's a semi chisel chain design that stays sharp through a lot of lumber. (Only good for cross cuts, not planking) But you do need to go to youtube and study Kickback first, because you aren't going to get any kickback experience with the chain that comes with the saw. (Quite adequate for most work and safer.) Kickback can leave you bleeding to death, or knock you out of a tree, or off a ladder, so take this advice VERY seriously, and never put your head in the line of Kickback to "see better, or push the saw." But if you've STUDIED, are smart, and careful - with a lot of big trees to whittle down, this saw will do it and make you happy in every way. It's light, strong, and gas free. You can also run with a generator. Be smart with extension cords. They have to be REALLY GOOD ONES. (preferably #10 wire for 100ft and #12 for 50 ft but #10 is always better.) Interior design has a problem with oiling. The hole in the bar that fits right over the hole where the oil comes out gets clogged within cuttinging dust in minutes, so chain runs dry. (This is BAD.) You can help this problem a LOT by simply putting a piece of tape over the whole in the bar that allows the dust IN to the oil hole. (The oil can still run up through the slot in the bar to the chain.) The factory should only drill out ONE SIDE of the bar to fix this problem. Makita technical phone help is good, as is their turnaround (2 days) on fixing. The tube inside the oiler came off of mine, and oil was pouring out of bottom when running. I'd tried to make sure the oiler wasn't clogged by forcing compressed air in before I understood what the problem was and probably blew it off it's seat from backpressure. They paid for shipping anyway, and even gave me a new bar due to wear from running the chain too dry. Nothing is perfect, but this is a beautiful tool you'll come to love and depend on. It starts every time. If you push it too hard as chain is dulling - it shuts itself off, but restarts within seconds with the next pull of the trigger, and it's overall build quality is wonderful. Do yourself a big favor - skip the damn gas saws if you possibly can. The cord is no problem at all unless you're high in a tree. And if you use the more aggressive chains, remember when you're cutting a big horizontal log on the ground - when you release that last little bit and the cut end drops - it often falls back against the other side of the cut - which PINCHES the chain and shoves the saw back HARD against you.This can come as a very big surprise and easily knock you over, or send you down a ravine, or worse. When "Limbing" a fallen tree on the ground, cuttting with the TIP can send the saw back towards your face very rapidly so use this convenien Tip cutting with special attention and visibility. DON'T let the TIP touch a branch further INSIDE, or hit it quickly as another "bar" cut quickly passes through the limb. And NEVER have your head in the PATH of a vertical Kickback so you can SEE inside the cut as the saw works. YOU DON'T NEED TO SEE INSIDE THE CUT! Keep your head out of the way. Stay off of ladders if at all possible, or hand cut saws with extension poles for that. Enjoy, but be smart. These thing can kill you, and having been a paramedic in college - eveyone whose hurt always wants to tell you ... "I was just ...
Reviewed in the United States on September 11, 2023
I have a good well-maintained stihl saw but I don't use it all that much so its very reluctant to get going & stay going...so when faced with the large project of bucking up into 16" long chunks for stovewood the manageable parts 4" to 14" diam of 2 enormous trees left behind by request by the tree service I decided it was finally time to go electric...I was initially wary about power & did a huge amount of research & reviewing...this makita can draw 14.5 amps & is astounding...cutting through everything with ease...unlike many of the electric saws available the makita has an inline design motor which vastly improves balance & maneuverability...I have experienced absolutely no cons about this tool at all...I have other makita tools that have endured rigorous professional use & I'm hoping that this one continues to maintain their reputation for quality & durability.
getting electricity to the saw: I already had industrial extension cords...at the initial use site I was able to use a 50'
10 gauge cord without issue as expected...next site was a bit further away & I had to use a 100' 10 gauge cord...again no problem...the saw ran perfectly...the last site was further still I was wondering if I would have to coax the stihl into life...but I hooked up the makita with the 2 10 gauge cords now at 150' & much to my surprise I could discern no decrease in capability or overheating of the motor...bottom line...ya gotta have 10 gauge cords!
thanks makita for a great tool!!!

The Chain tightening is a little weak tho. When you tight the chain, it's a little plastic handle. I tightened it as tight as I was comfortable to do without fear to break it, But the chain becomes loose as soon as you use it a little intense. It's just a matter of pushing the bar back up. No need to un tighten it since it's not tight to begin with.
This is my forst electric Chainsaw and it does what it is supposed to.
Over all, It's a good product
