I have both, including this very same tool, bought just last year. It's way quicker for cutting limbs and even small trees. That said, it's not as safe as a reciprocating saw, and requires more attention when using and maintaining (oiling, chain tension, de-vining, etc).
I have a Sun Joe pole chainsaw. It works pretty well. But of course, at that height, branches aren't very thick. I had another highly rated 4" chainsaw, cheapo from Amazon, battery powered, two batteries supplied, about this price. It cuts, but chatters a ton. You really need to focus on what you're doing, else there can be trouble. What I noticed on this Sun Joe chainsaw, is that the cutters are on every other link. That was same as my 4" chainsaw, that I returned. I'd look for ones that have cutters on every link, that will work smoother, but still need to practice safety.
I will bite for the wifey
While a *reciprocating saw will work in a pinch, they are heavier, more awkward, more expensive, and not designed for branches. Plus, I don't have a battery op reciprocating saw lol.
Your comment reminded me that I accidentally cut my gf (now wife) finger and almost her torso the first time I used an electric chainsaw. It's been 14 years and haven't used it since.

How do you wind up accidentally cutting someone's finger with an electric chainsaw?
Clicked on the link after reading all the comments, price is $55 and only 12 left in stock.
Sounds like you need to change the seller from Atlas Sales Team (which shows $55 with 12 left in stock) to Amazon. Still showing $37.87 for me as well as the 20% off coupon being applied. The coupon may be due to me being a Prime member (??) as it sounds like not everyone is eligible for it. The coupon is eligible on the items on this page (if it links to it for you). https://www.amazon.com/promotion/...PDKIKX0DER
Decided to go ahead and grab 1. With the extra 20% off coupon the total was $32.35 after tax. The power cleaner from the $30 Walmart deal arrived today, and this will now give me an extra battery to use with that without having to spend $45 on an extra battery itself. I'm sure it will come in handy with all the small limbs in the yard after today's storm, and when spring comes and it's time to trim the bushes in the yard.. My area is under a tornado watch for the next 3 hours so hopefully we make it through without anything worse than we've already seen.
I was thinking of checking to see if this battery would work as the second for my mower.

None of my chainsaws, including my bigger gas-powered ones, have cutters on every link; I don't recall ever seeing such a thing.
I have a battery-powered chainsaw and reciprocating saw. I find that for bigger branches, the battery-powered chainsaw is just easier than reciprocating.
Also, a tip: if you're just using this for pruning branches, use biodegradable chain oil. It's better for the tree. Both HD and Lowe's sell it.
I agree.
If you need a real chainsaw get a real chainsaw.
Otherwise a reciprocating saw with the appropriate blade is more than adequate.
Apples and oranges. I own this tool and also own a nice reciprocating saw. This burns through a branch bigger than my arm in seconds. Would take significantly more time with the reciprocating saw.
Let the record state if you fk up with this mini chainsaw you'll bleed for it.
