Bosch Chainsaw UniversalChain 35 (1800 W, Weight: 4.2 kg, Chain Speed: 12 m/s, in Carton Packaging)

It's value for your money,and very easy to use

The saw works well but there is no way to stop oil leaking out when not in use except by draining the oil reservoir after use. This is tedious.

Great tool and great price.

Had to return this item, it was my fault. I ordered an electric corded chainsaw instead of battery operated. It was returned with no dramas. Love Bosch tools.

Reasonable price and efficiently does the job

I bought this having seen it in a DIY store, I'm not a lumberjack and I'm not cutting down loads of trees, just cutting up logs into smaller chunks for our wood burner. It was a little tricky to put together, mostly getting the chain on was a bit fiddley but once it was put together it worked very well and was more powerful that I expected. It might not be clear but I needed to buy oil as well (this is essential) and once I had it going it cutting up the logs with ease (I would recommend you fully understand the length of the blade). Every now and then I did need to stop sawing to clear the sawdust from the machinery but that wasn't a huge issue. The only other negative point is that the power cord isn't particularly long but I have a good long extension lead which solves that problem.

It's not so much the saw that's at fault but the chain's wear out very fast. Don't buy it. I couldn't complete one job.

This is a great chainsaw. For occasional garden use, for managing a few overgrown trees it is perfect. I used it to cut down a few trees around 8-12 inches in diameter and it coped really well. I'd recommend wearing good quality gloves, visor and safety trousers, as any chainsaw is a dangerous. I'm a big fan of Bosch, having bought many of their products over the years. Great quality, feels solid, good instructions on assembly, includes power cord. It's still quite noisy, only about 25% less noisy than a chain saw, so try to use sparingly and ideally not at weekends. Only way it could be better is if it mentioned that you need chainsaw oil to use. I didn't order any, so that postponed my use by 10 minutes, I popped to Homebase and got some for £5. Great product!! highly recommend.
