Poor Quality
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
During first use cutting small fallen limbs product starting smoking and burnt electrical connections. Ryobi provided a list a locations providing warranty service for outdoor products. I contacted all locations and they advised that they only worked on gas products. I shipped it to a repair facility in St Louis and they rejected the warranty claim. The excuse was it was operated with the tension too tight. This was the first use – tension was set by Ryobi at the factory. I checked it before use and it turned without binding – which according to the manual is the correct tension. Even if this were true, a product with this advertised power should not be so fragile as to catch fire if the tension is not correct.

the electric chainsaw was a very good buy. It had plenty of power and it cut big logs quite well. Two down points… the cost of a heavy duty electric cord needed was very high and one of the electric connector prongs is loose. But it runs and cuts great and i like it

good product, but a bit flimsey in the plastic and chain tension hardware. You need compressed air to properly clean out the saw dust. For the price this was an excellent buy.
Somewhat disappointed
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
I ordered this saw as a re-conditioned saw and was advised that the company totally inspected and re-conditioned the saw. I was disappointed that the saw came with a chain that had been used to cut rocks. I called the company and was told that they do not replace the chains and would not assist me in securing a new one. The saw ,however; ran very well and has plenty of power but you may need to purchase a new chain to go on your new saw.

After a week of trimming scubs, cutting tree limbs, the saw is working well only compaint is trying to find a replacement saw chain to have on hand. You mention the brand name Ryobi and ever where I look they say can not help you.
Awesome

What a great product! I am totally satisfied! No more do I have to fight with mixing gas and oil. No more do I have to struggle with a chain saw that refuses to start! Don’t forget to oil the chain, but other than that, you just plug it in and cut through branches and small trees smoothly and easily. And here’s a real plus: it’s much more quiet than the typical gasoline version! You don’t disturb yourself or the neighbors nearly as much. Life is good. I’m so glad I bought this chainsaw from Amazon!
Handy electric chain saw
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
Electric chain saws don’t have the power that gasoline saws have, but this electric puts out a lot of power. The bar is not as strudy as my Poulan Pro gas model, but it cuts just as quickly, with less noise. If plugged in, it starts instantly. It is lighter to carry than a gas chain saw, with none of the gasoline fumes.
It makes light work of limbing.
I recommend this saw for the homeowner who has occassional need to cut limbs or to fell small trees.
Held up 2 years in hard use

Good cutters on chain, holds edge well. Adequate power, but keep chain sharp. Learn to hand sharpen, it’s not that hard and only takes a few minutes, 4 strokes per tooth at the right angle. Mark starting tooth with a Sharpie. Do all one angle then turn around and do the other angle. The chain will last forever that way. Uses lots of oil, but no big deal. Clogs easily with chips so keep it clean. may have to remove plastic cover occasionally. Have used it hard over two years on oak logs. Case vibrates a bit. Great for use in the shop to prepare blanks for wood-turning. Doesn’t bug the neighbors. I recommend it for the serious home shop: great value. Only better choice is the Stihl at several times the price. If this one fails I most likely will just buy another.
Handy chain saw

got this saw about 6 months ago and only had occasion to use it twice. Both times it performed perfectly.
I guess the best thing about the saw is the fact that it is convenient to use just plug it in and go , no messing with gas and cleaning spark plugs.
It cut through a 6 inch limb on an apricot tree like it was going through butter.

Great chainsaw. It is a lady’s answer to a chainsaw. Easy to operate. Great handling. Very happy.
Electric Chainsaw with real power
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I was very pleasantly surprised at the power this electric chainsaw has. I have a larger gas chainsaw and a smaller electric chainsaw and have used both a lot. This electric with a 3.5 hp motor and an 18 bar seems to be on the high end of sizes for available electrics and I wish I had found this a long time ago. It is not nearly as heavy as my gas saw which helps the fatigue factor a lot. You also don’t have to fool with the gas/oil mix and re-fueling (except bar oil for both) and the electric is much quieter. Of course, if I am away from electric power and/or cutting logs 20-30 inches in diameter, I use my gas saw, but for anything else this big electric is quite satisfactory. I purchased a factory refurbished saw and the first time I used it was for a constant 2 hours of limb cutting that were in the 3 to 8 inch size range. It did not miss a beat except once to adjust for the normal small amount of stretching of a new chain. The price on the refurbished tool was very attractive, the quality proven by actual use was better than I expected in this price range and was not much more cost than the smallest new electrics that I consider not worth buying. I would not have considered an electric chainsaw for any serious cutting before I found this model but now I would have to say I am impressed with this one for all except the largest woodcutting jobs or commercial use.
I give up

I’ve had this chain saw for over a year. When it was new it worked fine but has not aged well. The case it comes in is good but the saw leaked chain oil from the start so you either have to drain the oil or put up the the mess. The chain tightener is easier than most but unfortunately it has failed prematurely and is nearly impossible to install a new chain. The mechanism is just too wimpy. I’m going to buy the Consumer Reports recommended Poulan Pro 40E for about the same price.
