Earthwise CCS30008 18-Volt 8-Inch Cordless Chain Saw Reviews

I tried two Black and Decker cordless 8" chainsaws and sent both back because they leaked oil all over the chassis and battery. But I did use the first one for an hour and can compare these two brands. First the cons: The Earthwise is less powerful and lighter, so you have to use more of your own weight to operate it, and it takes a little longer to cut through larger wood (say 6"). Because of the power issue, it's less likely to give you a clean cut without applying some pressure to the cutting edge. The B&D manual is more informative; Earthwise needs to work on that. If you've never used a chainsaw, you will need some instruction other than the Earthwise manual. These are minor flaws for me, ones I can live with. We own 5 acres, and are trying to clean up a couple that are full of small, thorny scrub trees and bushes. I'm small, female, and 63 so the larger gasoline saws are no longer usable by me.

The local hardware store built me a replacement chain and I bought some oil. After charging the battery and then taking it apart to figure out how to put it back together, my chainsaw and I were off to the property line to cut down some 'trees'. The battery lasted just about as long as the chain stayed sharp....about 3 hours....raking & brush clean up in between. The diameter of the trees I was able to cut maxed-out at about 6". The safety push-button start works easily. I was extremely impressed (and empowered) and my husband was most impressed as well. I would highly recommend this product and will most likely be using it again this coming weekend!! 17 of 17 people found the following review helpful: Great for Small Yardwork, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Earthwise CCS30008 18-Volt 8-Inch Cordless Chain Saw (Lawn & Patio) I am a 5'2", 120lb 50 yr old woman and this chainsaw is perfect for me. I have never used a chainsaw before, so this was a little intimidating at first. After purchasing chain bar oil (not included) and fully charging the battery, I attempted to cut up a pretty big branch that fell in my yard. The smaller (<2" approx) branches came off easily. The biggest branch cut was about 4.5" wide. That one was a little struggle, but after several attempts I was finally able to cut through. True, with a more powerful saw, I wouldn't have had trouble at all, but for me this is all the power I'm comfortable with. I recommend this if you are a small woman, and older person, or someone who just wants a small saw to take care of small jobs around the yard. |
