5 out of 5 stars Handy and powerful   October 9, 2008
This is a handy (little, but powerful) chainsaw. Don't laugh, it's true.
Great for carrying into the woods to make a quick job of small trees, cutting firewood, etc. Nice to not have to mess with gas, etc. You do have to add oil for the chain, but otherwise this is a snap to use!



3 out of 5 stars Watch the chain oil...Gravity feed   October 1, 2008
It works fine, good scale. So, after unpacking, charging the battery, reading the manual, filling the chain oil reservoir; I made a couple of test cuts to be sure it it functioned OK. Fine. I left it on a table in the shop for the night. The next day I find that all of the chain oil had flowed out onto the table and run off onto the floor.

Store inverted if any oil is left...



5 out of 5 stars Great product for the value   October 1, 2008
I own a few B&D 18V cordless items and needed a chainsaw but would rarely use it so this would be a nice addition to my collection.

It cuts well using the 18V batteries on what I have tried so far. I cut a few large branches off my plum tree about 2" and it did it with no hesitation. I also cut out a bunch of roots from a large tree that was invading my yard and killing my grass. a few were about 3". I dug around them then used the chainsaw to cut them out. No problems.

It burns out the batteries pretty quick but since I have 8 of them it has been no problem.



1 out of 5 stars don't bother with this one   September 30, 2008
I thought that this little saw would be a good alternative for a 65 year old woman who wanted to trim and/or cut down small trees. I was wrong. After charging the saw for the required number of hours, I proceeded to attempt to cut down a small dead tree. Any necessary preliminary branch trimming was done with a small bow saw, so the only cutting that this saw did was the necessary cuts to fell the tree. Well, I had to finish with the bow saw to even get the tree down because the Black & Decker ran out of juice. Granted, dogwood is pretty hard wood, but it made me think about the people who wrote the 4 & 5 star reviews on this product. Were they cutting down 1 inch pine sapplings or what? I gave it a second chance: I charged it for another 9-10 hours, it ran out of juice again after a few cuts, and I was stuck hand-sawing again. This is the first time I ever returned anything to Amazon.com, but return it I did. And, yes, it does leak oil all over the place.


5 out of 5 stars WOW! You cut that whole tree up with THIS little saw?!   September 18, 2008
This saw is great. It easily cuts through tree limbs bigger than my leg. It gets a lot of life out of one battery, though I have several BD 18V batteries. Nice points about this saw are:
1. It's cheap
2.) It turns off when you release the button
3.) It's light enough to use with one hand
4.) Compliments my other BD tools (same batteries)
5.) Easy storage on the shelf, no leaky or smelly gas & oil
6.) The quietest chain saw I've ever heard
