After several Greenworks fiasco's I decided to quit being a cheapskate and step up to Skil.
The design and build quality were immediately better, beefier, more heft.
The battery at 6 AH is very Big and heavy but easy to pop in out and charge, they got the weight balance just right to where you can use that weight to your cutting advantage.
Power was very good, variable and consistant regardless what you were cutting.
The tool less bar adjustment is solid and easy to use.
Even the auto chain oiler works well (even with veggy oil) and uses very little during use with an easy to see bar oil level.
The chain brake stops the motor and chain instantly.
The only gripe is the weight when carrying from place but that all depends how you carry and how far but
that can easily be resolved using a shoulder sling to saw support to help carry the weight when making long distance transport....really reduces fatigue!
I paid a bit more to go with a TRUE Manufacturer with REAL Support and Parts rather than a no name brand that when something breaks you get a dialtone!
Overall especially backed by a 5 year warranty, I anticipate good things.....its been too long!

Good power, easy to use, battery run time fairly poor however
First what I liked. It's lightweight, very handy to use, don't have to screw with carburetor and gas, it's cut everything I've asked it to do including logs more than 36 in across by coming in from both sides. The only real downside is the batteries. They go flat pretty fast. They do recharge quickly except....they get hot when you use them even in 60° weather, and it takes them longer to cool off than it does to charge. Well I guess the good side is, you get a rest, even with two batteries. One thing I've discovered is that if you hang it with the chain blade up, the oil won't drain out and you don't have to deal with it draining the reservoir down to keep it from leaking in storage. As you can see in the pictures, it handles big logs, hang at blade side up, and prepare to spend a lot of time waiting for the batteries to charge. On a log the size in the picture, it uses more than one battery to cut through. That said, it's handy! Is the easiest chain adjustment/replacement I've ever had on a chainsaw. You've got to like that!
