Keep your garden in top shape this summer. Buy yourself a new Scheppach petrol chainsaw and make quick work of cutting...

 

Can anyone see what's not quite right about it? 

Would be quite entertaining to see a video of it in use!

Good saws as have used one and well made for the price

Does make you wonder that if someone hasn't the strength to start the saw then maybe there is a message there that you shouldn't be using one in the first place.

£99 is a cheap saw that is likely only to get light home owner use, a bit like my old dearly departed mittox which finally died after many years of hard service as a firewood saw, and if kept clean and sharp with decent quality fuel could last someone for quite a few years. My Aldi splitting maul is about 10 years old and still going strong.

Just noticed that it's 56cc with oregon bar and chain and comes with a 3 year warranty, now that is a lot for the money. If i could justify it i might be tempted myself !!

I've read the Aldi/Lidl warrenty isn't all it's cracked up to be. But who knows? I bought the Lidl version recently, it's fine, starts, runs, cuts, what more can you ask for for 100 Euros? Especially when you consider the bar and chain are worth fourty-fifty bucks. The value in these saws to a pro is that they are sacrificial, for making dodgy cuts that "could" potentially end up wrecking your good saw. I know someone will say if you know what you're doing this situation should never happen, but let's be real. Also good for a loaner for those situations where you just can't say no. All in all, good buy.

3 MONTHS for lidl then the warrenty is fobbed off to a third party, in Germany somewhere, which causes much angst, let me assure you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, that's pretty much what I hear. TBH for the price/quality ratio of their stuff I can live without a warranty. Bought a battery reciprocation saw, a battery jigsaw, a 5 amp hour battery with Samsung cells and fast charger all for 110 last week. Just the battery alone would have been that money for a name brand.

Hahaha you’ll be a long time cutting with that

[Silverhooker]

Did it cut better when you turned the chain round ??

I agree about the electric saw, in years to come they will become the norm.
