Detailed Test Results

CUTTING SPEED: Fairly slow cutting, measured by averaging multiple sets of cuts through 10- by 10-inch oak beams.

SAFETY: Very safe to use, maintain, and store the saw, taking into account the presence of a chain brake, the intensity of kickback during cutting, any burn hazard during use or maintenance, and safety of storage.

EASE OF USE: Fairly easy to use overall, which includes starting the saw, adjusting chain tightness, checking and adding fluids, and accessing supplies such as the spark plug and air filter.

HANDLING: Somewhat easy to hold and operate comfortably, based on our judgments of making horizontal and vertical cuts and the degree to which the saw vibrated during cuts.

About

Cutting speed: A high score means the chainsaw effortlessly cuts though hardwood. A top-scoring model will accomplish the job faster.

Safety: A high score means the saw has lower kickback intensity, includes a reliable chain brake to stop the chain during kickbacks, and reduces the possibility of burns caused by inadvertent contact with a hot muffler. A top-scoring model is generally safer and less likely to cause injury.

Ease of use: A high score means the chainsaw has convenient maintenance features and starts easily.
