Saker Mini Chainsaw Cordless 6-Inch-Switch Security Lock-Cordless Power Chain Saws-Handheld Small Chainsaw for Cutting Wood Trimming and Woodworking- Mini Chain Saw Cordless with 2 Batteries

This saw is amazing. I'm a nearly 70 year old grandmother with not a lot of muscle, and this saw makes trimming branches and small trees a breeze. I was cutting a lot of vines and they would wrap around the base of the blade but the cover is easy to remove and clear out the vines. The only complaint I have is the included glasses were terribly distorted and couldn't be safely used.

This chain saw is amazing!! To be so small it amazes me! I bought it for myself but my husband loves it just as much as I do! It definitely gets the job done and can be carried anywhere. Small, compact amd powerful! Love the extra battery as well.

I did a lot of due diligence looking for a hand-held electric chainsaw that was light, durable, safe enough, and worked. I watched videos, looked at websites, and read reviews. I own a gas-powered Stihl chainsaw as well as an electric Stihl. For my home activities, I rarely use the gas-powered chainsaw anymore. This little saw fills a niche in the garden/backyard that a larger chainsaw doesn't do as easily. This mini chainsaw comes with two chains, two batteries, and is ready to go out of the box. One must oil the bar by hand, a requirement that is a bit off-putting for someone used to an automatic oiler. But it works. It cut three-inch branches with no problem. It is not as smooth-cutting as a higher-priced chainsaw and I expect the chains may not last as long. It has safety features that I think are adequate to allow a relatively inexperienced person to use it safely. My wife has no experience with a larger chainsaw but needs a pruning tool that can go beyond the usual small twigs and branches. This saw has a button one must push before activating the trigger. It has a guard on the top of the chain to prevent someone from using it incorrectly and experiencing "kickback". I strongly recommend that anyone who purchases this item REMOVE the battery when not using it. It is still possible for a young hand to get the thing to run just by holding the button and pushing the trigger. This is a very small but dangerous object and one must respect it as such. Otherwise, it is a very handy item that adds to your home/garden tools without requiring great expense. Things I do not like include the fact that the chain stops quickly but not instantly as more expensive saws do. This slightly increases the risk to the user who might accidentally brush against a moving saw. The saw does not cut nearly as smoothly as a more expensive one, but it does the job. For the price, it is excellent and I recommend it. Addendum after a few uses: -My wife, reluctant about power tools, is not immediately enthusiastic about this one. Her hand is a bit small for pushing the button and then the trigger. BTW, if you are left handed, be aware the button is set up for right-handed users. -As one can see in the attached photos, the smaller the branch, the more the chain tends to rip or tear as it cuts. This is probably due in part to the vibration a small branch gets from the saw, compared to a larger branch. As one can see, the cut on a 2-3" branch was quite clean. So, for a few small branches, I recommend the use of a clipper. -The chain stretches due to heat as it is being used and soon hangs away from the bar. It needs to be tightened fairly often, especially with a new chain. That is inconvenient. So I recommend you carry a screwdriver with you so you can adjust as needed. Remember to oil the bar. Lastly, it is easier to lose respect for a small power tool, compared to a large noisy gas- powered one. Do not use near anyone else. Avoid holding a branch as you cut it. Be aware the chain is still moving a moment after you let go of the trigger. These warnings are not specific to this particular chainsaw. As a physician, I have seen the results of inadequate respect for small sharp tools.

I really like this saw. I'm 65F and have been amazed at how easy it is to use. I've bonked myself on the head with a few falling branches because I've gotten a little over-confident at times. I watched several customer videos before buying to get an idea of how far I could go with it. It's not made for cutting down big trees, but it's great for what it is and not too heavy for an old woman to trim unruly branches and cut down small weed trees.

I was very skeptical about these mini saws when they first appeared but when I found this Saker 6” on sale, I could not pass it up. I have been using shears and loppers to cut limbs and small trees growing in my flower beds and in my fence line but this is a game changer. This takes no effort, whereas, with the others I would have to sometimes put quite a bit of force into it, leaving my arthritic hands sore for a few days before I could return to trimming again. There is only one thing that I would change and that is the position of the safety button. My hands are very small and I cannot push the safety button with my thumb and push the trigger to start it at the same time so I have to use my left hand to push the safety while holding and starting it with my right hand. It also means that I have to keep it running while I am positioning a small limb and holding it while I cut it. If the limbs are small and long, they have to be steadied, otherwise, when the saw engages the limb, it just bumps it around. I recommend this or even the 4” for trimming. It will be a purchase you won’t regret.

I was skeptical when I bought it, thinking all the worse, so you could say that my expectations were lower than low. When I got it, I liked the bag and the weight of the product but nothing crazy. The charging is a very simple, though it did take a good while to get them charged. Then I used it, and used it some more and used it a couple weeks later a lot more, and the battery is still as powerful as day 1! That impressed me!!! I have cut a lot of branches and even removed small bushes with the help of this amazing handy tool. I would 100% buy it again, and I definitely recommend it. I own a bigger chainsaw that is crazy heavy and bulky and not good for tight places, and in the 5 years I have owned it, I have not used it as much as I have used this little baby chainsaw. Honestly this chainsaw is like a cute baby that seems harmless and then the teeth come out and chews through anything! I love it.

It finally warmed up to the single digits today, so I was able to give this a trial run. What a beast! Very impressed. I cut a lot of dead wood kindling in the back yard and this cut dense, hard, dry limbs like a champ. I cut some that were 5 or 6 inches in diameter, which is probably bigger than you should with this, but the size and weight allows you to easily turn the limb, and the saw, to get a full circumference cut. I used both batteries out of the box, so there was (of course) only a partial charge in each. That coupled with the cold temp outside (and the size of some limbs I cut) gave me about a half-hour of battery juice - but I cut a LOT of wood in that time. I will repost about battery life after fully charging both and using them. A "You Tuber" who demonstrated/tested this had the same experience, but reported later in the video that the fully charged battery "can go all day." Another thing I like is the fact that it runs at full power/speed until it doesn't have enough juice, then it completely stops. There isn't a progressive slowing down of the chain. I highly recommend this saw.

I'm not sure if it's just not sharp enough or maybe the chain doesn't move fast enough, but it jumps around a lot and is not capable of handling anything a lopper couldn't, which is what wanted.
