Dolmar electric chainsaw ES-38A / 35 cm / 1800 watts inclusive 2.Kette (tool)

Customer Review

The power of the saw with 1800 W will do just fine to saw wood in the strength of the 35cm long sword. The chains are extremely sharp, so that one gets when sawing no problems even with sterner stuff.

However, the 1800 watt can be problematic in older electrical lines, namely that described by many customers, the backup flies out when you turn the saw. One should check whether its cables are covered up to 16 this before; then the operation of the saw should be no problem. If you should have "weaker" lines, help a start-up current, the simply plug in the socket and in this then the saw. Although such a device costs back a few (about 30) euros more, but for that you have no Saw underperforming accept.

More, but decisive problem with this sid saw the partially defective components:
the chain quick release is a plastic lever that can quickly break down naturally. Why is used as the reputed company like Dolmar with such components of plastic? This leads to the withdrawal of a star because the chain tensioner is in fact broken in less than three months.

Another star deduction there is that the oil tank had also after a quarter of leaks, so that the chain oil ran out of the tank. This must in such a company is also not going to happen!

Short and (not) good: I have returned the saw. A BUY recommendation I can give. Too bad for an otherwise powerful Saw ...
