I bought the saw because my gasoline always has teething problems and I actually saw only house near a power connection I thought, there goes also a electric chainsaw. After the first few sections, I was very surprised at the completely sufficient power of the saw. She went through by a 30 cm thick old pear tree trunk like butter. So who has an electricity connection in the vicinity, which I can only recommend the saw. A professional will probably laugh at, but for firewood Saw is ideal, has genügent performance and costs a fraction of a Great Gasoline
