I read all the reviews on the UC4000, which is the older model of this saw, and saw nothing but awesome reviews. Close to 5 stars with over 50 reviews. So I went ahead and purchased this saw, and boy am I glad I did. This saw cuts through wood like a knife through hot butter. It was effortless how easily this saw cut through a 8 inch diameter tree branch, this is one mean saw. I am used to using my dads Stihl 20inch FarmBoss and this saw didn't make me wish I was using that monster at all. If you need to fall some really huge trees in the deep woods get a big gas saw, but if your just using your saw to cut firewood, take down small/ medium trees, work around the house get this saw. Another thing that is so nice is that all you have to do is 1) put some bar/chain in it 2) Plug it in 3) Pull the trigger and its up and running, no pulling, mixing oil,...

So when looking for an electric chainsaw I was surprised by both the price & the rave reviews on Amazon. I am primarily a hobbyist woodworker & turner, and this saw was purchased solely for slabbing wood for turning. I live in a city & don't even own a lawnmower, so I haven't the foggiest idea how well this saw would do at felling & bucking trees. But it made short work of slabbing (9) 30" long sections of spalted hard maple ranging in diameter from 12" to 18". This saw is very well made, and as pointed out in one of the other reviews it's constructed in Germany (not in the Far East). In my opinion, it has proved to be worth the investment. The saw is well balanced and handles easily. The only negative point I noted was the chain adjustment mechanism is recessed and postioned such that it collects bar oil loaded sawdust while in use. So adjusting the chain... Read more 11 of 11 people found the following review helpful: ![]() By Seany B. "Football fan" (Huntington, MA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Makita UC4030A Commercial-Grade 16-Inch 15 amp Electric Chain Saw with Tool-Less Blade And Chain Adjustments (Lawn & Patio) When my gas saw suddenly broke, I was in a pinch so I had this over-nighted in from Amazon. The saw came through with flying colors. This saw cuts just as well as my 42cc gas saw does. At 2600fpm the chain speed is not as fast, but the motor is so strong I can put more pressure on the blade and make cuts in the same amount of time- maybe even a little faster. That really surprised me. I made about 50 cuts on logs ranging from 6 inches to 15 inches. The last cut was as good as the first. Cutting 15 inch birch is a good test for this saw and it ate it right up. Harder woods were even easier to cut. This saw would be impractical for felling and bucking trees with a lot of branches because of the cord. It would be excellent for occasional and emergency use around the home. This saw would be a good choice for commercial firewood if it's only being used to cut bucked logs down to firewood lengths. And thanks to Amazon (and Fedex) for coming through with... Read more |
