Still using a Makita angle grinders bought 40+ years ago so very happy with the make. Chainsaw has been very ready to use and course through 300mm boughs without effort. Will comment again in 2060.

Having researched chainsaws before purchase, I was expecting a very good product. In reality this item exceeds my expectations. The power, noise, balance and ease of use are all extremely impressive.

Build quality is Ok ( made in China) normally with the older Makita products the injection molding, sections join perfectly. As Eric Morecambe used to say `you couldn't see the join'. On my example you could most definitely see the join, of the two main` shell's. Of course it doesn't affect performance at all, but it gives a slightly, second rate feel to it. The plastic has a hard fragile feel to it, but that's subjective. It features tool less chain tightening ( as do most electric chainsaws), and that to is OK, but not fantastic. All the electric chainsaws I have seen seem to have poor tool less tightening, that lacks proper firm adjustment. Its as if all manufacturers, have given the role of design to electrically minded people, with little experience of petrol chainsaws. Whats poor about it ? well the MAIN PIN adjuster is small, and made of plastic !! Its OK at the moment, but I wonder how durable it is. I have both petrol and electric chainsaws, and previously owned a Bosch AK40, ( electric) the adjuster on that in comparison was very hit and miss. The Bosh system had a rotating knob, and locking centre chain cover , which was very poor and broke often, a replacement on that cost £35, compared to a new chain cover for the Makita which is only £3 ! Both the Bosch and Makita cut very well indeed. The Makita is slightly more maneuverable, and smaller, but I prefer the wrap around grip of the Bosch. Very good value for money, you only need to cut two medium sized trees down to recover the cost, and you still have a chainsaw to use again and again. Ruthlessly bites through wood, with very little kickback, with a smooth clean action, side oil level tank indicator easy to read. It also has an adjustable oil flow pump, which the Bosch didnt have.
