5.0 out of 5 stars
Worth every $$$, Easy and Painless,
By
This review is from: Earthwise PS40008 8-Inch 6 amp Electric Telescopic Pole Saw with 3-Position Head and 10-Foot Reach (Lawn & Patio)
Easy and Painless is how I want to describe this little workhorse. For such a tiny electric pole saw, it delivered pretty good. Look at the video to get an idea. And for a $70 electric pole saw, you'd think that it wouldn't have enough power, but you'd be surprised. I used this during the "Winter Wallop" in Oklahoma a few weeks ago. I was steadily cutting away and I had to stop only because I had to answer the telephone. No stalling and I switched easily from normal extension to it's maximum extension as you can see on the video. My little Chewing Train was chugging along. It ain't no Black and Decker or Poulan or McCoullah, or DeWalt or any other brand I"ve ever heard of, but it worked splendidly with absolutely no problem. Summary of this unknown Electric Pole Saw: Price: Excellent Handling: Great Reach: Excellent--You can extend it by simply using a ladder, but be careful of weight distribution Oil Usage: Minimal Chain Lubrication: Excellent--auto lubricates very well Weight: Pretty good for an average man. Clean UP: Very eary Assembly: Very easy Noise Level: Very good, almost like a small electric mower. 3x less than a Gas Chain Saw Storage: Very Good, even had it stood up for storage and no problem. Not even an oil drop. Chain Replacement: Very Easy Chain availability: Any Lowe's, Home Depot or Ebay you can get it. Kick Back: None. I used it for about 45min straight. Checked it for 5 mins for chain tightness, used it again for another 30 minutes and it cut with no problem. It did bind twice, but I was trying to cut a straight 7" diameter log If you cut a wider one... Use the lumberjack technique and cut from three sides. I even let a friend use it and he thought it performed very well. Overall: Great price, great reachability, easy assembly, easy to clean up, minimal noise, and handles well.

Great Little Tree Saw,

This review is from: Earthwise PS40008 8-Inch 6 amp Electric Telescopic Pole Saw with 3-Position Head and 10-Foot Reach (Lawn & Patio)
This saw has worked out great for my needs. Easy to assemble, just add chain saw oil (doesn't come with it), plug in your outdoor extension cord and go to work. I used it to trim my mesquite tree with some branches over 5 inches in diameter. Good reach ability when fully extended and not to hard to handle even though the balance is not perfect. I'm totally satisfied with the saw.

Good Cheap Saw,

This review is from: Earthwise PS40008 8-Inch 6 amp Electric Telescopic Pole Saw with 3-Position Head and 10-Foot Reach (Lawn & Patio)
I've been bitten many time by cheap tools, but took a chance on this one because of the reviews. Glad I did.
Saw arrived today. Per reviews, instructions are not very good, but assembly was quick and simple. Just study the tiny diagrams and make sure you understand them before starting in. (I bet that the reviewer who said the saw did not cut well installed the chain backwards.) After assembly, tried saw on some low limbs in a cluster of low decorative trees. It would have been nearly impossible to reach them with a regular saw. The pole saw made it easy. I could reach in from the side and move forward as I cut/removed each target limb. It is a small saw, but handled the small to medium limbs well. Not as fast as a bigger saw, but it's a small electric inexpensive tool. The automatic oiler seemed to work just fine. I did not cut anything high, but did lift it up. Yes, it takes a lot of strength. Any pole saw does. In the fall, I will use it for higher work and just take whatever time is needed, resting when the old arms give out (I'm 71.) My first impression of the quality is that it is better than expected. If experience changes that impression, I will update the review.
