Product Description

Amazon.com Review

The 12-inch Remington chain saw delivers several strong safety features. A low-kickback chain and reduced kickback guide bar reduce the chances of danger. The rear hand guard safely removes your operating hand from projectile chips, as does the front hand guard for the stabilizing handle. The 1-1/4-horsepower motor provides plenty of power for basic pruning and trimming but won't do well under the duress of thick lumber (including heftier firewood) and carpentry projects. The black plastic design offers little relief from the numbing effects of vibration, but, then again, the motor won't dish up anything you can't handle. Aside from the assembly, which poses a challenge even to the most seasoned chain saw operators, this is a good, basic, quality saw for light-duty lawn projects.

This review is from: Remington 076728K 1.5 hp 12" Electric Chain Saw (Lawn & Patio)

The Remington 076728J 1.25 hp 12" Electric Chain Saw is great for light use like trimming hedges and bushes which have heavier limbs that a hedge trimmer can't handle like up to about 2" in diameter. The two keys for long time usage are to sharpen the chain regularly and keep the oil level full. These two steps reduce the drag on the engine and give you years of dependable usage.Also as with any electric outdoor tool invest in a heavy duty electrical cable to power your chainsaw.
