Summary: Cordless electric chainsaw 2008-12-03
Comment: I liked this chainsaw because it offered cordless features. But when the pole is extended full length it gets a little hard to hold in position. Not a problem after you get used to it.

Summary: Remington Polesaw poor quality 2008-11-07
Comment: With many trees in our yard I wanted to be able to trim away fallen and
dead branches with more ease. I purchased teh Remington Cordless Electric 18-volt chainsaw/polesaw. Model number BPS188A. I took it out of the package and set it up. The saw portion is heavy and cumbersome compared to a gas powered model. Since I am in very good shape and handle large machinery regularly I was surprised at how fatigued I would get using this saw. The chain moves slow so it takes what seems forever to cut even small branches. In the mean time the overweight saw has to be held up over head. The operator has to oil the chain by hand using a little squeeze bottle provided with the saw. The battery lasts for about 10 minutes so I purchased a spare. Knowing that, I had about 20 minutes to trim branches and then a whole day and a half to recharge both batteries. About 20 minutes is enough to use the polesaw though since the saw portion is too awkward and cumbersome anyhow. Since the blade moves so slowly it takes too much effort to get the blade to seat itself into a cut and get started. After using this saw about three times, about an hour tota,l a gear sheared off inside the housing.I tried to return the unit after owning it for less than six weeks, or even to exchange it. The Remington policy is to have the customer call the company. I called the company. They had no service center that would repair the saw in my area. They didn't know what was wrong with it, but suggested that I could get a "gear" that they would send to me. Then I would have to figure out how to open the housing and repair the saw myself. If that was indeed the reason why it was broken. If I did the repair myself I would void the warranty. If I don't attempt to do the repair myself the saw is junk. I could do as they suggested and drive it to a certified repair facility three hours away. Or I could find an unauthorized dealer who could repair it and then send the bill to Remington for reimbursment. Except having an unauthorized dealer do the work would void the warranty and Remington wouldn't reimburse me for the repairs. So you see the quandry here? If you need to use a polesaw, rent a good gas unit. It will go 30 times faster. It will be cheaper. Avoid this unit, it is junky and the warranty is pretty much worthless.
