There is nothing wrong with this tool apart from it being for the American market. The charge er is 110 volt with an American plug fitted, but worse, the batteries are not compatible with UK Worx tools. Otherwise, I would have kept it. Still having a struggle sending it back.I don't think that Amazon should list items that cannot be used here, or at least state the voltage.

This chainsaw is great for cutting and trimming trees. I've used it quite a bit and am pleased with the performance. It's helped tremendously to clean up the yard. I've used the saw on saplings, smaller tree branches, even used it on bamboo stands. I had to get familiar with it at first, and until I did, the chain came off a few times. But once used to it, I've found it to be a great yard tool. It doesn't have the power or capabilities of a big chainsaw, but it's fine for small jobs. And the safety feature just makes it that much better.

This Worx Jawsaw is awesome. It handles everything I throw at it with ease. Chop a large branch down, then chop it up into small pieces very quickly. It also makes short work of cutting bamboo. This is probably the best yard-maintenance tool I own. I also got the extension pole and that works great as well. It's heavy-ended once attached, but it does the job with power to spare. The price for this thing is good too; $170 is a steal for something so useful around the yard. If you're reading this then just pull the trigger and buy one. You'll be glad you did!

This saw is perfect for brush or small trees that are getting in the road of your lawn mower. Light and easy.

Chainsaws make me nervous but I had lots of dead branches to cut up, and some trees I wanted to cut down. I found this gem and it’s a life-changer for me! It takes less than a minute to cut down a tree and is so light and very quiet You can cut up firewood with one hand while standing up straight, which is great for those of us with back or hip issues. Highly recommend!

What an amazing invention. Such controlled cuts of in place and loose branches. Quiet, easy on chain oil, doesn’t spew out cuttings, keeps blade from contacting the ground! Very effectively fills the hedge trimmer/ pole saw “Tool Gap”. Hats off to Worx!

I have 4 acres of scrubby privet and other stuff that I've slowly been clearing by hand. I use a hand lobber for small stuff, but there is just enough too large. A chainsaw is overkill and I hate using them. This works perfectly for wrist to arm size stuff.You DO need position the saw properly - I made the mistake early on of cutting "under" in the direction it was falling, which of course trapped the blade and pulled the chain off. But this was a good lesson in how to cut and also how to service and tighten the chain. So make sure to cut from the UPPER side so that it falls away from the blade. Since this is how you would use a regular chainsaw that seems like an obvious instruction - but because the blade is hidden until you start cutting, you don't think about it until it's too late. I may try spray painting the blade side of the guard with something to remind me before i start. [update - if the chain comes off - remove the blade completely and reposition it and then reinsert. Don't try to put it back on while it's still in the housing area. It rarely comes off if I am careful about that.]Battery lasts pretty long but I haven't put it through its paces yet. Just played with it for about 15 minutes when I first got it. I was cutting live saplings and small scrub trees. I was even able to cut through a bunch of finger sized saplings in a single bunch coming out of a privet stump. [update: the 2 amp hour isn't bad, but I have since purchased some 5 amp hour batteries. Heavier, but they do last longer.]Easy on the hands and back - I have thumb arthritis in my left hand, but am able to use this easily because most of the power needs to be in the right hand. Left hand mostly guides.Remember - each tool works best for the job it was designed for. Lobbers for small things, full chainsaws for big things, and this for in between.Update: I've been using this quite a lot lately and I still love it. I had the surgery on my left hand just after I bought it, so was unsure when I'd be able to use it again. Because most of the gripping is with the right hand, I'm already back to using it. I also love that I can cut up branches on the ground while standing up straight - no bending over! I lob off a branch, it falls to the ground, and I quickly cut it into smaller pieces.I'm about to order a Worx 14" battery chainsaw (uses same batteries) for some of the larger pieces this won't handle. Anything bigger than that and I'll hire someone.FYI - change the string on the little orange "key" used to hold the blade open when you change the chain. I've already lost mine - I use a stick to hold it open until I can find it again. Also, I'm trying to figure out how to attach the opener wrench to the tool so I don't lose that too. Shame on Worx for not designing in built in tool holders for these.

Pour couper de petits arbre et branches

I have the Black & Decker equivalent, but find this far superior in most ways. I cut up several fallen branches and other sticks too substantial for a lopper yesterday and couldn't be more satisfied with the results. Whether the stick was 4" or 1", the tool was equally effective. I'm old and can't do as much as I once could, so if there's a tool that helps me and is safe and easy to use, I'm all for it. The B&D tool requires two hands (a good safety feature for that design) but since it's heavy and I'm not all that steady anymore, I find it awkward to position, and if you don't get it positioned well, the chain comes off track far too easily--and is an enormous hassle to get back on. On the other hand, this Worx cutter can be positioned with its jaws over the branch on the ground. You trigger it and push down to cut the branch. Wow! So much easier! It has safety features too, but they are better placed and once started, you can finish the cut pushing with one hand if you want to hold on to something for balance--helpful for me if I want to secure a branch with one foot. Mostly though, I didn't need support because I could stand still and just lean on the tool for the cut. After many, many cuts, the chain was still in place and fine, but should it come off or need adjusting, it's easy to get to unlike the B&D. I secured the included tool to access the chain to the JawSaw handle so it's always with me.Although the instructions say bar & chain oil isn't included, there was a small bottle in the box I received, along with a bottle to transfer it too with a narrow spout to pour it into the tool reservoir (which has a window so you can keep track of how much is in there). It holds a good amount so if you fill it before a session you don't have to worry about it running dry. The B&D, on the other hand, says to reoil after every 5 cuts. Really? You can't tell how much oil is in that tool's reservoir and the hole to pour it in is tiny and not covered so I never knew if it was clogged or full when the oil dribbled all over.If you want to cut branches off a fallen or standing tree or cut down saplings, a situation where the branch is not on the ground, you need two hands for the Worx and the tool is rather heavy to hold up for that work, but shouldn't be a problem for someone sturdier than I. For higher branches, though, I think you'd be better off with a long-pole battery powered saw lopper than this tool with the extension because the weight of this tool would make it hard to maneuver at a distance. I have one of those battery loppers, so only wanted this tool for fallen sticks and branches, and it works really great for that. I was cutting yesterday with the limbs lying on gravel and somehow this thing cuts them through without touching the gravel which would dull the chain. No problem, on that score.The tool arrived with some charge in the battery so I tried it out right away. After the first several cuts, though, I got concerned when it would start but then stop before cutting a limb through, but that was because the battery had essentially run out. Because I pushed that poor battery, it took several hours to fully charge, but then lasted well through the rest of my work the next day. I won't push it that far again. I have other Worx tools and should have known it's better to quit and recharge if the tool stops while working, even it it seems willing to restart, but stops again. Mostly I recharge after every working session unless I've not used the tool much. The batteries do seem to hold the charge well over long periods of disuse.All in all, this tool is a winner.
