The saw comes with a small squeeze bottle you fill with bar/chain oil and apply as needed. Surprisingly, it doesn't come with any bar/chain oil either.
I literally just came inside from prepping 5 small-to-medium-sized evergreen trees for felling. It zipped quickly through the limbs. I went through one 4.0Ah battery and started on another.
I'm quite happy with it so far. The only thing I don't like is that the connections between the segments don't offer a lot stability. The threaded ends are all held on with two rivets opposite one another. I think this causes the connections to wiggle a little along the riveted axis. I think it's solid enough, but doesn't really instill any confidence in the robustness of the tool.

EDIT: Kobalt is 24v vs 20v for Craftsman. I'm not sure if this makes any difference but thought I'd mention it. However, the battery included with Kobalt is 2 Ah while Craftsman is 4 Ah.

Only gripes is the manual oiling. (Which isn't that big of a deal as I have NEVER oiled it and it has worked as intended with all the original parts still in place.)
And the other gripe is the extension. It's not that sturdy. It'll get the job done but you'll have to kinda "saw" with the chainsaw to cut a decent size limb that's thicker than 3 or 4 inches.
I can't compare it to anything else on the market as this one has fulfilled my needs.

Gas powered ones start at 11-12 lbs and go up a few lbs after that depending on which make you get.
Obviously you haven't used a battery powered one before. I've used both gas and battery on and off for years. But like the gas powered ones since they're a little more sturdy.
