bosch electric chainsaws - do you rate them

[Steve999]

Makita 4030 is quite capable, i have one with a 16" bar, does the job, keeps the peace.

I have the big £400 stihl electric thing. Well made and plenty powerful I would say as good as our ms260 but no antivibes on them. Ok for half an hour now and then but regular use will kill your hands and wrist. Very torquey at slow speed feels like it could kick back more than a petrol.

I use a £60 cheap model that I don't even know the name of from Argos and its great for firewood. No maintenance just plug in and put oil it has lasted ages and a good buy for cutting firewood but as said before you can use it to fell or buck fallen wood.

I've got the same thing with a 14" bar.

 

It's an excellent little saw. Quiet and very well made.
