User Reviews about Black & Decker NPP2018 18-Volt Cordless Electric Pole Chain Saw - 8-Inch Bar

excellent product. have all the other black & decker cordless trimmers and sawa. would highly recommend this product -- black&decker 18 volt cordless electris pole chain saw

I did a bit of shopping around before I decided to chose this B&D battery powered chain saw. I was undecided between a gas powered one and electric. Having a good deal of experience with gas powered devices as well as electric devices this model suited my needs better and came at a great value for the dollar. I intend to use it for general tree triming around my 1 acre home in Florida. Here are a few pro's and con's of the unit.

Pros - Has one of the longest extensions available at 14ft. This is 2ft better then the gas powered ones I was considering. Being 6ft + myself, I don't think I will be needing a ladder much. This is a great feature. Charging was pretty quick and efficient. Excellent run time on the battery, able to use it for my entire yard and it did not die even after almost 2 hrs. (Not continuous) Easy to assemble, adjust and use. Not very heavy and easy to menuver. Cuts great and does just what many of the other reviews indicated about going thru 5-6in limbs.

Cons - Box came a little beat up but nothing was broken. Watch when you insert the battery, if you do not push it all the way in and hear the click, the battery will fall out once you tilt the unity up to use it. No other real cons at this time.

If you are a general gardener or handyman this is a great item and I recommend it. You can save hundreds of dollars doing this work yourself and not having to hire a professional with similar tools. Just a few years of clearing dead or overgrown limbs you will have gotten way more then your moneys worth. Great product B&D.

MJV -- Great product Great Price

Used this saw while volunteering in Colorado last year at an outdoor retreat doing maintencance and gardening work. My husband and I cleared branches overhanging the 1/2 mile of raod into the retrest. Fell in love and bought one for outselves for Christmas. The battery also fits other B&D 18v. tools. Fairly light. I'm a senior fenale with not much upper body strength and even I could handle most of the branches except those higher up....15" Highly recommend. -- Love this saw!!!
