If I didn't see this video, I wouldn't have believed that this little saw, operated with a 20V battery, could get through a tree limb (or trunk?) that is such a large diameter. All I need a chainsaw for is to shorten some firewood----pieces that are probably half that diameter. Just ordered one.

I've got a 10" worx convertible pole saw(corded), first day after using it as the pole saw I took it off the pole and intentionally tried to burn it up. Had 7 or 8 oak, maple and pine i needed to cut up , the oak was about 18" across, the maple around 15 and the pine was between 10 and 17. The saw, despite being optimally an entire foot too short for the widest stuff, chewed through every bit of it. I did notice that despite being very open under the chain drive that after about 20 cuts it needed some help cleaning out just to make sure it keeps oiling. It's good to see the battery setups starting to be viable, lumber mills have used electric saws for over 40 years for small quick cuts as it's much better in the long run than idling a saw or intermittently starting one throughout the day. Having a saw on hand that's technically too short is better than having no saw at all - they seem to be pretty well made saws and should last ages when used within the realm of reasonableness. Unless you have 30 or so batteries I don't think you could run it hard enough to kill it, when I tried to burn up my corded model, I burned up before the saw. With the corded, you can hear when it's in a full load, but the load probably only pulls the saw speed down maybe 15% or so even in wet gummy stuff. Folks I've talked to naturally are skeptical of the motors either being weak, or underrated for the work, which is a perfectly valid concern considering the general electric motor market with power tools, but I don't think it's much of a concern with these saws.

I'm glad you made the point of the wood not being rotted because my first thought was, "Of course it can cut through that big log - it's all rotted." That's a good demonstration of what that saw is capable of. I've been looking at other reviews of this saw and none of them demonstrated what you've shown. Thanks!

That's oak too. Not really what the saw was designed for, but very powerful nonetheless.

we love worx stuff and have tons of their products and have done several videos on them as well....haven't gotten the chainsaw yet but as soon as we need one again we are getting a worx....thanks for sharing dude....

Great review thanks a bunch it was really nice to see an honest real world test

You helped me to pull the trigger on buying this. Only $90 today on prime day.

Just got one of these for Christmas. I mostly just saw firewood for the bbq, so its perfect. I love it!

I like worx their stuff is usually up to the challenge. Their work light is awesome too.

That was awesome to see what it can do :-). I just received my saw today. This girl can handle this one ;-) lol

Got the same saw, also really like it. Looks like your chain needs to be sharpened.

Lol Yes it did.

That seems like a nice unit. I bet you could carve totems or bears outta the wood with it, roughly.

Thanks for the demo. I had the Worx GT Revolution Weed Wacker with a 4 ah battery and just got the 10" chainsaw and am going to try it out today on 1' - 4" branches so I've been looking for examples. The one thing I want to get right is the chain tension. The Worx manual that comes with it says (no battery connected) "Note: The Chain is properly tensioned when it can be lifted off of the Guide Bar and the guidelink is within the the rail of the guidebar," and it refers to "Fig E2" where it shows to pull on the chain with one gloved hand, not pulling on opposite sides of the bar with two hands and the chain coming about 1/2 way out of the guide slot. The official description includes, as you noted, "with Auto-Tension" but the next note in the manual says: "The chain will stretch while cutting and lose proper tension. When the chain becomes loose, completely unscrew the Chain Tensioning Knob or turn the knob three full turns in a counter-clockwise direction, then retighten the Chain Tensioning Knob to properly reset the Chain tension by repeating Steps 1-4," which are basically turn the Chain Tensioning Knob hand tight, tilt the bar tip up which removes any slack, and then "fully tighten" the knob. So it looks like it holds the tension well in your demo here, but the manual's saying to keep and eye on it.

You want the tension to be firm, but allow the chain to move freely. As it loosens up, you'll just need to turn the knob clockwise a little bit.

excellent for small jobs.

I just used it to prune all our "Burning Bushes". It's a great saw for small jobs.

I would have liked the battery saw years ago

Nice video, I am looking into one of these worx chainsaws, but maybe to 40 volt? Or the larger one. I recently bout a landroid where I will have a video ready for review by say the fourth of July, 2020.🇺🇲🌞⭐💥🍺

I just got one too, and I need to figure how to handle it for cutting existing longer pieces of firewood into smaller ones. Logs keep moving when I cut. AND need to master the cut so when I go to the other side, I can complete it. Right now I get an annoying spiral....

So do you carve the Thanksgiving turkey with that as well? Thanks for the review. I wondered about those small saws. I might need one soon.

Worx has some interesting tools. Been thinking about the weed whacked, blower and power washer. I have a Poulan electric chainsaw, no so scary and works well, but a 50' extension cord gets me anywhere I need on my property. Thank you for the review. Is it self sharpening?

@DanHiteshew-oneandonly

No, I need to get this chain sharpened already. It was struggling a bit due to being dull.

I love it, but mine isn't cordless, and it works perfectly for my needs.

Dan, Very impressive for a battery operated saw. Are the batteries lithium ion? Keep the blade out of the dirt if possible when cutting low. It will dull fast. We cut down several old ash trees (80 footers) recently with an old McCullough 610 gas saw (16" bar). Heavy as heck. But the weight does the cutting without having to push as hard. Again, not bad for an electric saw. Also, you are right the saws are extremely dangerous. I never had an accident, but God knows I came close a time or two.

Yeah, this was an extreme use of this saw. It's meant for dealing with fallen branches or felling small trees, not bucking 15" oak logs. Lol

Oh wow easy as.

I need this tool! I have jaw saw! Terrified of chain saws.

I never worry too much about it. I brush off the outside, but take the bar off and clean all that out. Making sure you keep the oil from going empty while you're using it is the most important thing to remember. I top off after each battery is drained.

If this is an example of a 40 volt battery, I'm not impressed. Why would you do a demonstration with a dull chain ?? You never mentioned the voltage. Very poor review.
