This was exactly what I needed to trim branches. I already have a small chainsaw, but I didn't want to get involved with trying to balance a ladder on uneven ground to trim high branches. Pole saw to the rescue. It's not lightweight - the battery is heavy - but the balance is good and I didn't find it to be a problem. It made quick work of a lot of branch cutting. I spent a much more time disposing of the trimmings than doing the actual cutting. Things to consider: by the proper oil which you'll need before you can use it, and consider buying an extension pole to give you more length.

What can I say!! ITS A EGO product. The best tools you can get.

I was really impressed with this saw. I live in the southwest and we have a tree called Mesquite that can be hard on a saw however it handled it surprisingly well. Thank God, no more pull strings or mixing gas and fighting carburetors and spark plugs I'm a fan of EGO

This is the first EGO tool that was defective. Customer support was very patient , within 4 days I had a replacement !! I use this pole saw to clear brush on 4wd roads. It works perfectly

awesome saw and working good
