Come along friends as we put this worx electric chainsaw/polesaw to work shortly after we inbox it! We test the pole saw extention and the chainsaw itself! Great results
The only problem I have with it is it"s quite top heavy, I'm 67 and not in the best shape to hold it up it very long. I bought the saw a year ago, and it has been great. Bought an extra chain and battery. I'm set.
Hey Pete! Yes your right about it being too heavy, I know I try not to use it too much reaching high. I really like it for camping and just using the chainsaw, nice and quiet and convenient :) I appreciate the comment, take care!
Nice tool Dave, I'd like to have a set-up like that, I wish DeWalt made a inexpensive saw like that, only because of all my 20 volt tools I already own. I'd like to keep it all the same brand to many chargers Lol 👍
Thanks! Yes it seemed to work real nice for the price of it, I know what ya mean with the batteries. I’m going to look into adapters so you can change battery brands tools/batteries with each other.
I bought one similar a few years back but mine is strictly a pole saw. The head on mine swivels which makes cutting high branches easier as u can cut down from the top without binding. Best 100 bucks I ever spent. Battery on mine lasts about 45 minutes, I can’t remember what brand mine is but very similar to yours. Thanks for sharing Buddy, I’m sure you’ll get plenty of use from it!
I’m sure that angled head sure helps! I know from the minimal use of had with it I feel it’s going to be handy for the small yard jobs. I appreciate ya watching buddy, have a good week!
It's top heavy especially when fully extended so not as good as a dedicated pole saw BUT the fact it can be used as just a chain saw I think is worth the hassle for the savings in a 2 in 1 tool. I've cut some large limbs down with it at max reach. I cut and chopped up 3 very large branches 8 - 9" in diameter on the 2.0ah battery before it needed to recharge. I would recommend a second battery since the included charger is basically a slow charger. It's better for the battery but it doesn't exactly recharge fast.
Yea it is a bit heavy fully extended. I bought it mainly for the electric chainsaw to use while in trail riding with my utv, seems to work really well! I appreciate you watching and commenting, take care!
I've looked at it before, but the WORX is way too much consumer grade engineered plastic for me to even consider. It's a throw away item as far as my needs and uses. Thanks for sharing.
Yeah I would agree that it wouldn’t be a good fit for someone needing to frequently prune or cut a large amount of wood with. However I will say for the price point and to do the yard and trail work I need I’m totally satisfied. Thanks for watching and commenting, take care!
