What Customers Are Saying

The Kobalt 80V cordless chainsaw is a capable tool for homeowner use, with customers praising its power, battery life, and ease of use compared to gas-powered models. The saw effectively handles medium-sized trees and branches, with the battery lasting 20-45 minutes depending on the wood thickness. Users appreciate the lack of fumes, noise, and pull-starting associated with gas saws. However, the saw may struggle with very thick or dense wood, and the chain can sometimes come off during aggressive cutting in brush or with smaller branches.

Extremely convenient and safe.

Would Recommend

This is a safe way to chain saw. Nothing is running while you aren't using it. It stops instantly when you take your finger away. You also don't have all of the starting issues.

One Tough Beast!!

Would Recommend

I decided to give this chainsaw a go on a big tree that had fallen. It exceeded my expectations!! I recommend buying a second battery so you can go the distance if your doing a big job though.

I have a Cobalt pole saw and weed wacker that are 3 to 4 years old and I just bought the Cobalt 80 volt chainsaw and I am not disappointed. Despite reviews to the contrary my chain is sharp and cuts through heavy limbs and small tree trunks with ease. The battery lasts much longer than it takes to charge another battery. in the attached photo is all of the wood I cut with one charge on a 4-year-old lithium battery and all of that wood has been drying for one to two years.

Heavy, but that also adds stability when cutting.

Would Recommend

Very powerful and cut through pine and oak trees easily. So easy to use with the battery powered motor.

Amazing

Would Recommend

This is better than my Stihl, and by far way better than expected. The 80V battery system has all the power and endurance you need for your elite job needs.

good not great

Would Recommend

I bought two. One is still going. The other returned since it stopped working & had a burning smell. The one still working - works great - but has lately had the chsin keep falling off. It is far to easy to put the chain on backwards. Would one arrow be too difficult to stamp onto the chain?! Once the chain is dull you cannot get a replacement kobalt chain. The other brands - i tried 3 - never seem to fit quite right.
