Just buy it! (this isn't a sarcastic reference to Nvidia)

I love it. No petrol motor maintenance to deal with. Assembly was easy. Tightening the chain is fast and toolless (just make sure you tighten it how the instructions illustrate). Some people complained on other sites that the chain would fall off. I had no such problems. Cuts nicely (don't force it, let the saw do the cutting). I even did one cut strait down instead of across. It took longer, but is doable; all other cuts were effortless on my part, and with acceptable speed. All you need is an extension cord and chainsaw oil.

From my research, this is the second most powerful chainsaw that is corded electric. The slightly more powerful one, by a different manufacturer, had some worrying reviews, so I got the Ryobi one instead. I couldn't be happier with this purchase. Let's hope it lasts and I don't have to come back here to edit my review.

One quirk: The assembly/maintenance instructions are illustrations only, not a single word in any language. Some steps weren't clear to me right away, so there is room for improvement there, like 'write up the steps too and translate them (I'm looking at you, Ryobi)', but I like the saw so much I won't take any star off for lazy instructions.

I think this is the most fun power tool I've ever purchased.

Ryobi chainsaw

Just the right length and width bar for heavy pruning cutting jobs around a large garden. Plenty of power though for larger jobs. Nicely balanced and not to heavy. So even at full stretch of the arms it is still easily controllable. Very effective chain brake that also guts the power for extra safety. I looked at a lot of chain saws and reviews before buying this and I think I made the right choice.Read full review

A fabulous product at a great price

I borrowed this model from my neighbour recently, I was so impressed I bought one myself. The chain tension adjustment sold it to me as well as the amazing power...awesome

Good chainsaw

Fairly simple to put together. You will need a good size bottle of chain lubricant. It’s cutting through some pretty large tree trunks. Only minor issue is chain has gone fairly slack even though fully tightened after an hour.Read full review

Great!

A great chainsaw, powerful and effective. i
I've usd it for elm trunks that are notoriously hard.
Some might find it a little heavy but for a post-retirement bloke it's fine.
The whole build of it speaks quality compared to other brands. Well worth the moneyRead full review

Wooden be beat

This item is advertised as refurbished. It arrived and is like new. Cannot fault it. Haven't used it in anger yet but have tested it running freely. Has a good feel of quality. Very impressed.

Decent product, as you’d expect from Ryobi.

Perfect for home use, no problems at all using it on large branches and trunks.
