CRAFTSMAN V20 Cordless Chainsaw with Battery and Charger Included, 12-Inch (CMCCS620M1)

Lightweight, easy chain replacement, power decent

This little chainsaw is awesome for the correct use... You aren’t going to cut a years worth of hardwood firewood with this thing.It’s made for occasional trimming and clean up... great for pruning, limbing, and even opening up trails for an ATV or truck.There is no need to mix gas and oil and pull on a rope and exhaust yourself before you even start the job. With this saw you pop in a battery and it’s ready to go. Do yourself a favor if you can afford to and get the 9 amp hour battery pack for the longest run time.This saw is well designed and easy to use and perfect for small jobs. For example - pruning low limbs from trees, removing dead wood, cutting wood for a campfire or even trimming 4x4s when building a deck, fence, or small shed.It’s a great compliment to a gas saw, perfect when you only need to make a few fast cuts in smaller stuff. But don’t expect to completely replace a gas saw with it - the technology just isn’t there yet. The 4 amp battery will get you a handful of cuts. The 9 amp battery pack will last much longer.

just the history of Craftsman, and their superior tools I like the design and it is light but heavy I got the 12" just got it, not tried it so standby for a product review, ordering was smooth and easy no hassles or complaints. and shipping was within two days of ordering

Works great for around the yard stuff like down limbs. Not for dropping big trees but is handy for around the yard or trail riding! Instead of having to crank your chainsaw every 50 yards to cut limbs! Just make sure you carry extra batteries!

I didn't really want to buy a battery operated chainsaw but hubby said it was the best gift I've bought for him. The battery lasted about 45 minutes of moderate use. He had a spare from a different Craftsman product so that worked out. He likes this better than his gas chainsaw.

This chainsaw has proven it’s worth on our property. It lives in the 4-wheeler and is the first choice for clearing trails and cutting downed trees. The only trick is to fill the bar oil only 3/4 full to prevent it from leaking. We were so impressed with this chainsaw that we got the companion tree pruner. It made quick work of cleanup after hurricane helene brought a bunch of trees down over the driveway.

I've owned several top-quality gas chain saws, and they're all hard to start. We use a chain saw about every other year, so I did not need a professional grade saw. This one starts easily, and the blade handles all of our projects. I was concerned the blade may not be long enough, but that has not been the case.

This has been great for trail management, cleaning up hunting sites, sectioning up small trees for campfire wood, cutting low branches. The charge on a battery lasts a good while. It think the estimation of 60 cuts is accurate, though I wasn't counting the trees were cut. There were many. I suppose one could buy another battery if they need longer life, but I think the idea of this saw is for those quick little jobs here and there, not all day lumberjacking...
