20V MAX Chain Saw Cordless Chainsaw, 10-Inch Battery Chainsaw, Tool Only, for Wood Cutting and Tree Pruning, Includes Guide Bar Scabbard (LCS1020B)

Frequency and Longevity I own several properties and use this to trim branches annually. I’ve used it about 20 times a year. Pros Quality – It may not feel as durable as some other chainsaws, but Black and Decker is my go‑to line for battery‑powered tools. I have about 10 of them and have only ever had to replace the weed whacker. It starts right up once you pull the trigger. It feels as safe as other chain saws I have used int he past. Size – It’s small but effective, and easy to load into your vehicle and go. Battery Life – I use an extended battery and have never had to switch it out during a job. Power – Not as strong as an electric chainsaw, but it gets the job done. Cut Quality – Great. I haven’t had any problems. The cut is sharp and comparable to other chainsaws. Cons None Value for the Money You just can’t go wrong with Black and Decker here. All I can say is: The PRICE is NICE.

I have a small yard with a giant oak. This little beast helps me keep up with clearing out the volunteer trees that inevitably pop up. Small and lightweight, and easy to handle for the small jobs that come along.

Not comparable to a gas powered, the battery goes dead after 20 minutes, so we bought 2 additional batteries. Does a decent job, but takes a long time for very hard woods.

DeWalts, Milwaukees and Makitas must be nice, but as a new homeowner in sudden need of a whole arsenal of tools, they're out of my price range. Black and Decker is the low-budget alternative, and like all of the other B&D tools I've laid my hands on so far, they've outperformed what I expected of them. Tropical Storm Isaias took down a pair of trees, one of which measured about 12 inches wide at the trunk, and this saw dutifully hacked them apart. It wasn't lighting fast, it wasn't a glamorous montage, but over the course of a couple of hours and a few battery changes, the trees were steadily reduced to logs and branches. It does really suck the batteries down, but that's a worthwhile tradeoff to never deal with 2-stroke oil or gummed up carbs - or expensive service calls from an arsonist. With enough determination, it could probably slowly chew through thicker trees, but I felt that the thickest cuts on the trees I handled were the comfortable limit. The saw isn't super heavy duty, but it can handle abuse short of intentionally destroying it. The only flaw I can point to, is that it leaks bar oil slowly when it's not being used - no problem, it's so lightweight and easy to handle, I can just turn it upside down and pour the oil back into the jug. In just two trees, its already paid for its self and then some, and I see no reason why it won't last for many years - and many trees - to come.

I love this little chainsaw! Its not super expensive, the batteries last decent for this unit. Great controls, design, bar chain oil functions, chain tightening control, has bar sheath, cuts great. The build quality is great. Have another one of these I used for couple years at home. Got another one for cutting wood in other locations. Its only a 10 inch bar, but works great for smaller pieces of wood. I would only buy Black and Decker batteries for it though. The knockoff batteries suck!

Ever since I read Robert Frost's poem "Out, Out" in seventh grade--a boy's chain-saw accident kills him--I use anything but a chain saw. But this Black & Decker is the perfect beginner's safety chain saw. It is so useful for blown-down branches and limbs, saplings you don't want, such like. If you use other B & D 20 volt outdoor tools, you'll already have a collection of appropriate interchangeable lithium ion batteries. Buying this, I now have 4 batteries, more than enough to do any work required. You'll get about a half hour of sawing out of a battery. It is plenty powerful to do the work. They sell the oil, replacement chains, and should you ever need one, replacement (or additional) rechargeable batteries on line. I am pleased with the quality of this Black & Decker product, especially for the price of $90-120. B & D has come a long way with this new line of 20 Volt Lithium-Ion battery products for yard use. I would recommend this for anyone needing to saw up to I'd say 7" in diameter or less. No more fooling with oil and gas mixes, no more fumes, and this model is easily portable. One more thing--this comes with an EXCELLENT manual to teach you step-by-step everything you need to know to use this, maintain it, and to saw safely. Now I use it all the time. For those of you needing a bigger saw, they're out there, with longer blades and 40 Volt batteries--but you'll pay a good deal more. But a small well-made chain saw with a low-kickback safety chain has a role to play for many of us. I have had my saw now for just under two years. And oh, by the way, Frost based his poem on a real kid, back in Franconia New Hampshire in 1917.

All my yard tools are black decker. When i decided to get a small chainsaw i automatically went with black decker. I like it because its small but gets job done. Im 70 year old woman with 2 acre yard. I do all my own yard work and this chainsaw is very useful.

I took this on a trail to remove a few deadfalls. It is light and easy to carry for miles which is why I bought it. However, it is underpowered and went through the two batteries I had with me very quickly. It is good for the homeowner who will occasionally want to remove or prune small trees. It worked marginally well for me as I did not want to carry my much heavier Ego 14". I suggest having at least 3 or 4 fully charged batteries handy when doing anything but small tasks around the yard.

Great 10" Saw, works great for medium to small trees. Prefect for around the yard work.the chain can bounce out a bit if you are not putting enough tention while cutting, or not holding it with a proper grip. It is definitely worth the price Pros: Easy to use , the machine is light weight, and the chain is easy to adjust. Cons: Will require the 5.0amp batter park for any use longer than 10 minutes the 1.5Amp batteries die quickly under load The oil leaks out of the pump if you put it in any weird positions, like upside down.

Se ve de buena calidad, llegó en el tiempo acordado; Buen sistema de seguridad para evitar el encendido accidental.

Been looking for an electric chainsaw to cut down small trees on trails on my property. Previously I bought a one of the low cost mini cordless chainsaw that are on Amazon the price was cheap but the batteries did not last that long and it was impossible to buy new or replacement batteries. The Black & Decker 20V Max Cordless Chainsaw, worked great and used the same batteries that my Black & Decker Alligator Lopper uses.. I was able also to buy extra high compacity batteries. The problem that I made was to save money I bought one of the used chainsaws that where offered on the sidebar for $96.93. To start the chainsaw worked fine but eventually it became weaker and did not have the power. One day I went out to the garage to get my equipment and put a new fully charged battery on it and the engine smoked. The upside is that Amazon.ca put me in contact with Black & Decker and being that it was only a month old they will be replacing it under warranty. I am now patiently waiting and hope the replacement arrives in time so I can do some clean up before the snow falls. October 25th, I received a replacement from Black & Decker and it included battery and charger. Yesterday I tried out the new BLACK+DECKER 20V Max Cordless Chainsaw to cut down a spruce tree by the road with an 8" trunk and it cut through it like butter. Used the Max Cordless Chainsaw to delimb the branches from the tree, Will keep you informed

Excelente producto, cumplió con mi expectativa, ideal para el Jardín

At first blush I was skeptical. I have spent a small fortune on b&d products and batteŕies so I'm well set up. Went all in and bought 8, 20v products and a fast charger. Sitting on 6 charged batteries at any given time. The lilac growth had grown to a 30 foot circle, all grown in with little thin suckers and shoots of bigger wood with several 4 to 6 inch wood stems. One stump to the ground was 8 inches of dense wood. Three tools used, a rake, a b&d 20v hedger and b&d 20v chainsaw. Batteries used a 2.5ah at 75% on hedger and two, 4ah aftermarket. Got an hour out of the 2.5ah then swapped it to 4ah. Worked 8 hours to complete the job, pictures above before, and final cut. Both batteries still juiced on completion. When you first squeeze the trigger you think "Not gonna cut it" but it does, quietly and at a good pace. Never binds, it just keeps on chewing wood. I was listening to music from my b&d Bluetooth speaker, I'm a chainsaw guy, that's a first. You won't buck 5 cords of 8 inch, but around the yard for taming the grounds it's ideal. Great system off grid with a small solar system. I can see building a cabin remotely with continuous work every day with no problem. I put these two tools through their paces and found them up to task within their abilities. I recommend.
