better than I thought it would be January 1, 2009
This is my third chainsaw in four years. First I bought a 3 horsepower Remington electric 16 in chainsaw. It worked pretty well, although I tried to make it do too much and burned out the motor. Thinking I needed more power I bought a gas powered 18 in Ryobi chain saw, which does not work well at all. However with a large tree adjacent to my house dying, I needed a working chain saw. So I took a chance on this Poulan Pro, 18 in, electric. It was a great choice.
In one day, I took down all the major branches of the tree, leaving a large stump. I was able to cut all of the wood in one day, yielding nearly a cord, or it will when I finish splitting the larger pieces. Some of the pieces were actually 18 in diameter or larger and the saw still handled them. Over the course of the day, I had to tension the chain once, and fill up the oil tank twice - not bad at all. Clean up was easy, about 15 minutes with a couple of paper towels and an old paint brush and it was clean enough to store.
If you can can run an extension cord to where you are cutting, this saw is a very good choice. Easy to maintain and use, not as loud or smelly as a gas chain saw, and plenty of power for even larger logs.
Great for small to medium jobs! December 22, 2008
I wasn't too sure about getting an electric saw since I've always had nice small engine types, but I had just bought a small lake front property and only had some clean up work to do and really didn't need a big tree killer. Figured I'd give it a try. What a pleasant surprise! It makes quick work of wood even up to 14" diameter. This is the best value I have ever had in a saw. Having said that, don't buy this saw and then think you're Paul Bunyan or that your suddenly going into the lumber business. It' for small to medium work and does a great job at that. If the job is bigger than that, you are going to need a bigger saw.

I wanted to get a chain saw and spoke to a friend who reccommended buying an electric one. It was the best advice I have gotten in a long time. Gas powered string trimmers and lawnmowers are great until they stop running - then they are a hassle to have to fix. I went on Consumer Reports and this model was one of the highest rated models listed. This thing is great. I used it all day cutting back some unruly trees in my front yard. Some of the branches I cut of where pretty thick. It did everything I needed it to do.
GREAT Product December 6, 2008

This has been the best money I've spent on Amazon!! This saw is durable, and a quality alternative to a gas saw. I have used it to cut multiple trees up to 1 foot thick and it never blinked. I've also used it to cut 17 oak/creosote railroad ties (the real ones around 8x10 inch or so)during one yard project. It NEVER struggled due to power. I was pleasantly surprised to find such a quality saw for less than $100. You MUST MAINTAIN THIS LIKE A REGULAR SAW! This means clean it, check the bar oil, and adjust the chain before you use it every time. I think I will have this saw for a long, long time.
