I had just seen this on a Den of Tools Utube video. He likes the Senix line. I seen it on sale and bought it. This is to carry in my Jeep for tree's blocking trails and firewood. I just tried it out cutting down a small tree in the backyard and it did great! Seems to be of great quality for the money. Does not come with a case but it does have a blade protector and oil catch. Battery has cooling fans. Its really a great saw so far.

I thought I'd be returning this, but it's proven useful several times when I flooded my gas saw. Cut up two Aspen and a pine (rounds) before the battery died. as far as the chain jumping off, you just have to watch your angles. I've had it happen a few times but I'll always take this thing with me when I'm cutting. Even handles gamble oak no problem. -Matt A.

I've only used this to limb and buck one large tree that had fallen. Previously I had used a Craftsman gas-powered chainsaw for many years. The Senix saw was surprisingly powerful - as powerful as my gas saw. It was MUCH, MUCH easier to start (just hold down the button and lever) and it felt safer to use because I had no hesitation to stop it frequently and put it down while I re-set my position or moved cut debris out of the way. One battery charge was enough to limb and buck about 2/3 of a large (18" diameter, 25' tall) fallen tree down to 1/4 of a charge (the recommended stopping point). By then, I was ready for a rest

Always test the blade oiling function on a piece of cardboard before using. If it is stored in a cold environment it may not lubricant the chain and damage the chain. Best chainsaw I've ever used. Battery lasts along time. Cool battery down before charging.

This chainsaw is replacing a 2018 husqvarna battery powered chainsaw for cutting up small pine trees and limbs on my property. A new battery for the old one costs 250.00 so this one was was a better value right off the rip. I was concerned initially because the directions for building it out of the box were light on info and I wasn't able to find any build videos on the internet. However, after some tinkering, its almost the exact same configuration as my old Husqvarna. The only remaing challenge was detangling the chain, and that only took me about 5 minutes of playing with it to get it installed correctly. For new chainsaw owners, make sure to purchase some bar and chain oil as it does not come with a small starter bottle so you will need that to ensure proper functionality. It took about 40 minutes to fully charge the battery initially and it was surprisingly as quiet as my Husqvarna. It burned through several of the larger trunks like they weren't even a worry. I then moved on to branches and limbs and once again had no issue, even on eco mode. I haven't tried it on fresh pine trees yet (excess sap could be an issue) but I will be trying that later this week and I expect it to perform very similarly. The only draw back was the overall run time I expected (1hr off and on). With a newer battery and newer battery technology, I was hopping for more overall run time than I got. Having said that, this chainsaw is vastly more powerfull than my older one, so I'd rarher have the power with decent battery life than better life and it lacking power to get through bigger trees. I was very pleased with this purchase and will give them another try when I replace my pole saw and string trimmer. Plus, having more batteries around will do wonders for my productivity. Really recommended for smaller/mid-sized trees and all branches. great option for those who need something for storm prep and recovery in neighborhoods, where full on gas powered chainsaws are overkill. Outside of replacing and/or sharpening the chain and having Chain oil around, theres almost no maintenance so thats also a benefit.

It's so much easier to use than a gasoline powered chainsaw. No mixing gas and oil and it actually cuts faster than my gas powered. i'm very pleased with the battery life. it's seems to last longer than I do.

This is an excellent battery operated chainsaw. It has a lot of power for being battery operated instead of gas. It is easy to handle and use - not as heavy and bulky as gas saws. We have a lot of trees on the farm and this chainsaw works great.

Battery broke within eight months of extremely light usage. After one week of no response from Senix warranty dept., I'm posting this one-star review.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was so excited to be able to carry a chainsaw anywhere and not be tied down to the corded ones that I previously owned. I followed the instructions to put it together. Charged the battery overnight. Added everything that was requested. And when i finally wanted to use it, the exclamation mark kept on showing up. I did notice that the battery slot is flimsy at best and i tried to push the battery in farther until it couldn't go any farther but still nothing. I tried everything but nothing seemed to work. Very disappointed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I would have rated this chansaw very highly. When I initially used it it cut very well. I mean I was really surprised. Sliced through logs like butter. However, after about an hours usage the chain began to slip off, and finally to the point that the saw was completely unusable. There is a small hole that I believe fits into a pin when the cover is seated correctly. That hole and pin would not line up, thus the blade and chain were not straight and the chain would kick off. i tried numerous time, but to no avail to realign the two together, but to no avail. I could not move the pin namually although it runs along a slot. It may be part of the chain break mechanism. Either way, the cover no longer lined up. I need to return.
