Great SawDecember 2, 2008 This is a great chainsaw. I spent some time researching the right one to get and Consumer reports was right on with this one. It works great, very powerful. I have used it to chop through 10" branches and nothing has even given it a hiccup yet. Cuts through trees like butter! It's great if you don't need a highly portable saw. You are limited only by your extension cord.
Poulan Pro 18-Inch 4 HP Electric Chainsaw #400ENovember 30, 2008 Had the saw for about a month now, cut about 3 cords of oak, so far so good. Realy like the light weight & cutting ability with logs in excess of 18". No gas & engine oil & not breathing the fumes is also a big +. Works great with my Honda generator when I'm over 100' from the house. I went through 3 sears 18" gas saws in the past 12 years if it lasts as long I'll be quite happy.
Poulan Pro 18-Inch 4 HP Electric Chainsaw #400ENovember 29, 2008 Excellent product, exceptional value. Good power and supplied with adequate chain. Have used it so far 5 times and it has exceeded my expectations.
Great little saw!November 17, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
In the aftermath of an early fall (leaves still on the trees) snow storm that put down 35" of wet heavy snow and devastated a number of trees, I immediately ordered this saw. Now after 8 truck and trailer loads of limbs and almost a chord of firewood cut I could not be more pleased. It has required nothing more than a chain tightening, some bar oil and electricity. It cuts as well as my gas saw but is light and comfortable to use.
DOES WHAT ITS MADE TO DO.November 13, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I just bought this chainsaw from Sears.com because I found it for best price there. Ligthweight, no assembly required, chain adjustment is infrequent and VERY easy, ANY NOVICE CAN OPERATE AND MAINTAIN THIS MACHINE WITH EASE. I cut down two 18-inch diameter Pine trees in about ten minutes. In another half hour I had them both naked of branches and cut into several stumps for hauling. I am VERY impressed with this machine after all of the advice I had been given from so many people to NOT buy an electric cahinsaw because "they are low-powered and made for trimming branches"...That's BS! THis little devil ate right through those 25-year old pines with no problem. Now, I have to warn you to EXPLICITLY follow the standard tree-cutting methods as outlined in the manual as this is not a commercial saw and it is easy to see how it can be damaged or can cause the operator serious injury if used improperly. You will not slice right through a 2-foot wide tree with this saw, but you can notch it and get it down with ease as I did! I am buying another one of these for my uncle for christmas this year!
