I've bought a few of these in the past. Even with oiling, they don't tend to last long. For instance, not even long enough to get through the 3 chains they give you. The motor poops out. Maybe this one is different but make sure your expectations are in check

if the motor poops out, you've still got those batteries to go with your other devenbo tools.

Thanks for pointing it out, maybe an extended warranty would be good

I would be pretty nervous using a $30 mini chainsaw... I can just imagine the little chain breaking and flying into my face going right through the safety glasses or somethin. I just bought a Milwaukee Fuel mini chainsaw for $180 because I am about to embark on a major brush clearing project, and was considering this instead to save $150... but after reading reviews I think the extra $$ is worth both safety and effectiveness at doing the job...

IDK I had a power line to my house moved for some construction and for some reason the power company cleans up after themselves if they come trim your trees away from power lines but when I pay to have a power line moved the cut down whatever tree they need to and leave it where it falls Frown I have a nice chainsaw but I bought one of these mini chainsaws recently so I pulled it out and proceeded to chop the tree into moveable pieces and I was able to chop all except the 3 thicker bases of 3 branches and the main tree itself which I wouldn't even attempt. the base was about 20 inches around so not a huge tree but I was still impressed with how much I was able to get done with a little mini chainsaw. Different brand than offered here but They probably all come out of the same factory !

I was a little concerned about the chain coming off an taking my hand with it as well so I bought some chainsaw gloves to use with the mini chainsaw, well to use with any chainsaw as the tree was a bigger project than trimming the branches that I do every year along my mow line. https://www.amazon.com/Intra-FIT-...th=1&psc=1 I wore a face shield I had here too. I am retired military so PPE is drilled into me, I use safety goggles when I hammer a nail Smilie

Can't figure out what the battery is compatible with. Would buy if it were Dewalt, Dongchang, DCK or RIgid. Don't need another battery charge on my wall.

Were you looking for attention? These things have very little torque, momentum or even speed. If the chain broke you would be lucky to notice. I haven't seen many chains EVER breaking regardless, but saws do throw chains. If this thing threw a chain I can't imagine it could do any harm. I wear glasses regardless for sawdust, sticks, bugs. I don't know if you were joking or really thought a 6" chain saw could do any real harm. I would be more worried about stubbing my toe on it.

Looking for attention? "Look at me, look at me, posting my opinion on buying a cheap tool after reading review on it! Look at me, look at me!!" LOL, what does that even mean.

I suppose I was stating the obvious, but even on slickdeals, in most cases you get what you pay for. You seem to acknowledge that this thing sucks I guess by stating it has very little torque, speed, etc., so if it can't hurt a person, it sure as hell can't cut through trees Big Grin.

Maybe blowing $30 on a cheap minichain saw will work out for a few people, but for most it will either break in two minutes or probably just sit on a shelf (speaking from experience Big Grin). But for those that actually plan on using/needing a pruning chainsaw... it is probably better to pay for quality on a tool commonly known for eating fingers if you aren't careful, and that needs decent power to be safe and effective. Just dropping a couple reviews for the chainsaw in this deal out of many bad ones, there are quite a few more saying that this thing is trash. I can't confirm via personal experience... but this isn't a buy now, think later deal, there is a reason Woot is blowing these out.

Zero stars - By Amazon Customer - Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2025

Waste of money. The chain came off within the first 2 minutes of use.


Returned It - By Cassandra - Reviewed in the United States on March 18, 2025

Extremely underpowered. Tried it first on a branch 1.5 inches thick, and all it did was nick the bark. Tried it on a thinner branch, and it chewed it a little but couldn't cut it. I've used chain saws for years, but I couldn't get this to work. Very disappointed.
If you actually NEED a pruning chainsaw, here are a couple of options with good reviews and a store/brand that stands behind their products. Also note, if you can wait these go on sale from time to time, or can get open box from Direct Tools Outlet:

The cheapest and mainly for smaller branches (probably suited for 1.5-2in diameter if doing a bunch) at $69: https://www.homedepot.com/p/RYOBI.../334242166

The next step up at $99, quite a bit more powerful/versitile, using 18V Ryobi standard batteries: https://www.homedepot.com/p/RYOBI.../327395491

The brushless version of the $99 one above, also an 8" bar, so can handle much bigger jobs for $149: https://www.homedepot.com/p/RYOBI.../327717798

Then the fuel one for $200, I saw linemen in my neighborhood using these after a storm (along with big gas ones I didn't identify for the big stuff). When I am out doing clearing work... I want my tools to work, and work WELL, so I spent the extra cash over the Ryobi, where normally I go with the much cheaper but still capable Ryobi stuff if it can do a comparable job (and TBH I probably would have been more than fine with a Ryobi, but this Fuel option is a sweet little tool): https://www.homedepot.com/p/Milwa.../313506666

cool beans.. but I'd pay more for something more mainstream. I'm an Ego tool guy but bought my first cordless recip saw here RYOBI ONE+ 18V Cordless Reciprocating Saw Kit w/ 2.0 Ah & 4.0 Ah Batteries + Charger $99 + Free Shipping. Still alive and cuts thick branches with rough wood blade. . https://slickdeals.net/f/18459112-ryobi-one-18v-cordless-reciprocating-saw-kit-w-2-0-ah-4-0-ah-batteries-charger-99-free-shipping?v=1&src=SiteSearch

and if the batteries go bad, you still have the box everything came in, provided you kept it.

no comment on this brand, my cheap one from amazon for around the same price has serve me well around the house; I have a Greenworks pole saw too, but this mini chainsaw type is so convenient for smaller (up to 2" maybe) branches, not to mention that it's cheaper than a single brand-name battery.
