Nice little saw especially if you just wanting to cut small diameter branches around the house, trimming trees and bushes. But be prepared for the battery to crap out soon. Works great for 5 to 10, two or three inch diameter limbs and then needs recharged. My battery lasted around a year and now a new one is half the price of a new saw. My replacement will be a small gas saw. Never need charged or replace a battery. A shame to throw a good saw in the trash. Maybe EBAY will take it.
