" ... I was definitely cutting pieces larger than the tool was intended for and I’m sure I was dealing with knots as well. ... "
" ... Cuts quickly very effective ... "
" ... Excellent for high, out of reach branches. ... "
" ... Wont cut as fast as a chainsaw but way faster than a hand saw. ... "
" ... Cut a 4' limb no problems in 5 minutes. ... "
" ... It was a good bit of work but the saw cuts pretty fast - would work easier I believe with 2 people one on each side. ... Had to flip and snap the rope a few times to get the chain positioned with the cutting edge down but this was easy and worked well. ... "
" ... Cut through 8 to 10 inch limbs with ease. ... "
" ... I was surprised how easy it is to cut. ... throwing line over branches . ... "

" ... When I tried to get it free, one side broke off. ... "
" ... If you tie into dead Oak you can tell but same with a hand saw that wood is just plain hard. ... "
" ... the weight bag ripped eyelet ripped out before I got it over the limb.came up with another weight to toss over the limb and 1 of the ropes broke almost as soon as I started cutting the limb ... "
" ... This one started falling apart on the first pull. ... By the 5 or 6th branch the blade was sticking and the rope broke. ... "
" ... After several attempts to land the line over the limb, the carabiner broke. ... Then the bag broke from the bottom so it's now useless too. ... Okay, then tied a weight to the end and finally the rope snapped. ... Seems like it just wants to lay flat and won't flip to face down. ... "
" ... Pulled the branch off the roof with the first rope. ... Not good for this, since the palm bends too easily and the chain would slip and not bite into the branch/frond. ... Just resulted in the branch bending. ... Between uses I noticed a spot one the rope that was frayed. ... "
" ... But the line Is a too thin nylon rope, that is small enough to get stuck in the Cut. ... I've had to change out the two pull ropes with thicker line to be able to use. ... "
" ... This product is both gimmicky and cheaply constructed. ... And when it does, the rope handles fail and the clasp connecting the bag to the rope bends/breaks. ... "

" ... It is not as easy as a chain saw, and you can work up a sweat but it was worth it to keep from having to hire someone. ... "
" ... I figure it more than paid for itself with just this one use and now I have it on-hand should I ever need it again. ... "
" ... The chain is a few feet long, and feels slightly narrower than a typical chain saw chain - it's maneuverable and has a weight on one end to help flip the teeth toward the side you want to cut. ... once you get it going it stays right.) ... "
" ... Next time will use a wrist rocket. ... "
" ... This tool could use solid hand grips. ... "
" ... Once I got through the limb far enough, the limb started to droop and bind on the chain. ... "
