Great tool for good money, I’m happy with purchase

I already had a larger electric chainsaw for cutting tree limbs into burnable firewood and a reciprocating saw for pruning reachable smaller limbs. If I had bought this pole saw first, I might have bought neither of the above. The bar is small compared to a normal chainsaw but adequate for most of the limbs I deal with. The extension pole makes this saw A LOT easier and safer to use than climbing a ladder with my chain saw (which I would not do anyway) or with my reciprocating saw (did that and seriously strained my shoulder by overextending) or with a bow saw or nonpowered pole saw (have wasted a lot of time previously with both of those). The conversion between pole saw and small handheld chainsaw is quick and easy—really nice piece of design/engineering. Glad I bought this, which I had found it sooner.

Just ordered this yesterday, May 14, 2021 and just received it today May 15th! Very fast free shipping and was on sale for $79 this week! Love that this is a 2 in 1 Chainsaw and Pole Saw and made cutting down excess branches and dead branches much easier for my backyard since our tree branches have been growing all the way towards our house windows. Didn’t know that Best Buy sold this type of machinery at this low price and I’m so glad I got it! The included 2 year warranty plus a 90 day bonus is awesome! Very easy to register the product and I have until August of 2023 for the warranty! Awesome price, awesome shipping speed, and a very reliable included warranty!

Let me start with the good features, it is great to have it convert from a pole saw to a chain saw, makes it very convenient. In spite of the cord, it isn't that much trouble and you get plenty of power. The blade is super sharp, it cuts better than my other saws when they were new. Now for the down side, it is heavy and that makes it hard to hold over your head for any amount of time. On the page they mixed pictures of this saw (8 inch bar) with ones from the 10 inch bar saw. Makes it look like it can do more than it really can. The blade is too short for most pruning projects, it is so short that you can't see what you are cutting because of the body of the saw. If you want to see what your are cutting or you want to cut limps off of a more mature tree get a longer blade.

I have SunJoe electric chain saw that breaks down in January this year, but it wasn't a convertible pole, The difference between this convertible and the non-convertible is like night and day. I cut and trimmed all 3 trees around my house, without a whole lot of sweat, I used the smaller saw to do most of the cutting. Very great tool for reasonable affordable price.
