There really isnt anything wrong with this saw it does the job. I have used mine for about 2 years and it has seen various differnt cuts. The largest being an old pine tree at the thickest diamater of 16\". it is also good at trimming shrubs, and i think is best at trimming 3-6 inch diamater branches. The saw hasnt kicked back on me once, but that could be because its a pretty light duty saw.
The negatives of this saw is like what the reviewer above has written, the oil lubricating container leaks, but it really isnt that big of a deal.
This saw is great for the suburban homeowner, or for general handyman, for cleanup of small trees, bushes, or cutting 4*4\'s.
however, i feel that this saw is overpriced on Amazon as i purchase mine for about $40 bucks at my local menards.

After 8 years my Remington Limb & Trim saw bit the dust today. This was my second Limb & Trim saw. The first one probably lasted over a dozen years. Overall they are good saws for the suburban homeowner for the money. They are very lightweight and this makes them fine for triming and cutting small trees. I have cut down trees and limbs up to 12\" with these with no problem. Larger trees just take longer as you have to cut from both sides. Gas chain saws are faster, but this will do the job if you are patient.
The saw is virtually maintenance free except for keeping the blade sharp, lubricated, and under the correct tension. For sharpening, you can use a chain saw file, or a Dremel tool with the correct chain saw grinder, which is much faster and easier.
The chain oiler mechanism did leak on both saws so I never use it. I know other owners that have had the same problem. Instead, I keep an oil can handy and manually squirt oil on the blade after every few cuts to keep it lubricated.
The other problem is the chain bar has to be adjusted to the correct tension so the chain is not either too tight or too loose. This can be a bit of a hassle, but is necessary on any chain saw. If too tight and used too long, you will burn out the brushes on the motor. If too loose, the chain will cut poorly and could even come out of the track, causing a nasty jam or even be dangerous.
Overall this is a fine saw for the suburban homeowner that just wants to clean up their landscaping. If you live on an acreage or farm, or need wood for burning for heating you will want a bigger electric or gas chainsaw. But for everyone else this will do fine.
I just went out today and bought a clearence display model 14\" Remington ES1514AS Limb & Trim for $25 at Lowes to replace the one that just died. At this price if I only get a couple of years out of it, it is worth it. But based on past experience I expect I will get more than 5 years out of it.
