DEWALT 60V MAX Cordless Chainsaw, 18 in., Tool Only (DCCS672B)

This took down a 22" gum and I bent the bar while bucking (it was my first day). While waiting on a replacement I got a Stihl 271 (I've got a lot of storm damaged trees). This little beauty is my pack with and minor cut champ. After using both for a full day I can tell you the DeWalt is kinder on you, but has battery limitations. Power wise it's pretty decent and is phenomenal in ground work where you'll do a cut, then position awhile and so on. I'll fire up the Sthil about 10 times over a day, but use the DeWalt well over 100 individual cuts. I would equate the ease of use to to why golf carts are preferred over stick shifts in a lot of places, this is just fun. Great tool for what it is and invaluable for anyone, be they weekend warrior or home steader. For those of us not up to Wranglestar status this is a great back up for the gas powdered and can charge batteries off a solar panel. If you're clearing debris or heating your home this is a great tool and piece of mind. It is pretty liberal with the bar oil discharge, I'd recommend storing with that in mind.

For weeks, I went back-and-forth deciding whether to buy a traditional gas chainsaw or this Dewalt cordless model. I don't have a ton of trees to maintain, but the ones I do have are sizable (around 18" diameter). So I decided to give this chainsaw a try and I haven't regretted it. You're not going to cut cords of firewood with this thing because the battery overheats with constant use, and the batteries won't last for hours. However, if your cutting is somewhat limited to smaller jobs, this saw is great. It definitely gets the job done and the supplied chain is sharp and lasts. Dewalt didn't skimp on the chain. It's not a light duty chainsaw either. Yes, the battery life is limited, but this thing cuts and cuts well like a decent prosumer gas powered chainsaw. Would buy again.

It’s a peace of #### try it out loved it went to use it again doesn’t work

I have a ton of DeWalt tools; I always upgrade when DeWalt upgrades. I was a woodshop instructor for three years. I had the top three brands in my tool selection: Makita, DeWalt, and Milwaukee, and in my opinion, DeWalt performed better and lasted longer than the other two. I have no regrets with any of my DeWalt cordless tools and I have a bunch of them.

That’s good enough strength to cut through a log Battery last long enough to get the job done less vibration than a gasoline. Don’t have to pull on a string hoping it cranks don’t have gasoline. I give it AAA rating.

Had mine for 2 years, still going strong, cleared an entire windbreak on my acreage with no issues other than the occasional chain derailment. If you’re cutting solid wood it does fine, the chain usually derails from cutting green twigs or leaves.

Great saw for the size and voltage. Gotta watch the chain oil level. Don't have the filling saw with gas to remember to fill the tank. It does not last for a 12ah battery.

Convenient

Very stiff chain. You must first heavily lubricate the chain, loosen the bolts, and then tighten the adjuster as far as you think reasonable. After that, turn the adjuster yet another quarter turn, tighten the bolts and run it unloaded at full speed for a minute. REPEAT WHEN DONE. If you fail to pre-stretch the chain it will skip out of the tracks during operation. (Do not ask me how I know this.) Do this for any new chain in the future. I am highly impressed with the torque, it is everything they say it is, and it bites through wood like nothing else I have ever used. I have not used it enough to determine the battery life but I took down and chopped three small trees, multiple bushes & branches, and it only lowered the power indicator by one bar. I feel I can get more out of one battery than almost three tanks of gas. (Buy multiple 60v batteries. I know they are expensive, but think of it as an investment.) I was unimpressed by the guard around the driving sprocket as it clogs a wee bit too easily. I understand it is a safety feature but still... It is amazingly quiet and I am sure my neighbours appreciate that, great tool overall.

I love it! Powerful saw. Better than my gas chainsaw. Advise not to buy from Canada Tools though. Terrible customer service from them.

a quiet powerfull even at low rpm, very balanced
