I cannot relay how good this product is.Having been in construction for 20+ years im used to handling tools, machinery etc. i thought this chainsaw would be ok for my 17yr old to chop wood for our wood ovens and wood boiler. I was right it is a lot more safer to use and control but it is so capable. I literally have a 4ft oak which it managed to get through better than my peteol chainsaw and without having to stop and re fuel and mix fuel and add oil etc etc. Its value value value. Its also incredibly quiet, my hoover is louder! Which keeps the noise pollution down.It would also be good for an older person who cant handle the rigors of a petrol saw.Safe, excellent performance, value for money,

Although it's electric, when you're cutting it has the same satisfying feeling as using a petrol chainsaw but without the noise.It feels like a solid tool.I did about 20 slices in total of Ash, Birch and Oak to make tops for stools. It chopped through all of them 12" to 16" diameter logs easily.This is my favourite power tool. There are so many possiblities with it. Now when I see a nice chunk of wood at a tree surgeons I canactually make use of it :)The chain tensioner seems a bit fiddly. I would prefer a more robust mechanism. However if you do the correcct steps it works fine.You have to loosen the sprocket cover first otherwise you could snap the chain tensioner head.

I bought this to replace a Bosch AKE30 that was a bit small and the makita is a much nicer saw - cuts considerably faster and with much less vibration when cutting with the full length of the bar.One minor niggle - the chain tensioner is rather fiddly to put the cover on. You have to carefully align the pin and hold the bar while getting everything to slot together, and the bits that must align are hidden from view. Why??? Every other chain saw I've used has the tensioning pin in the body of the saw so the tension holds everything in place while you pop the cover on, effortlessly. But not a big deal - otherwise the saw is great.

Seems to combine the best characteristics for an electric chain saw in a really manageable form factor and reasonably light weight. Excellent chain speed, good tensioning mechanics, easy filling for the oil, and very positive on the hand guard. This is about as long as you want an electric to be, and for our garden use, anything bigger or more powerful would just be overkill (in fact, having used it, I'd happily have gone for a shorter bar).Limited use so far but performance has been very good. A really clean, positive cut, easy to handle vertically or horizontally, with a good start/stop action and plenty of power.

I bought it for a purpose and it more than did itself justice. The ease of starting and stopping at the touch of switch really does put the Petrol Models in the shade. Most of my workload was cutting for short but frequent periods and the Makita was excellent in that role. I had to sharpen the blade just once and even that was an easy task given the design features of the Saw and the ease of removing and replacing chains etc. All in all I am very pleased with the Makita UC4051A and would highly recommend it.

Purchased to saw up logs left over from felling three trees. It has cut through everything, and had no issues with kickbacks. Assembling it wasn't the easiest as the instructions cover two different models and the English translation is poor in places. However, it does have decent diagrams to go with the written instructions and it only took a few minutes to figure it out. The new chain does stretch to start with so remember to check and tighten regularly on the first use.

Bought a Makita chain saw 30 years ago and it still works well if a little rough. felt like getting a new one so I bought the UC4051A Excellent, except I mistakenly thought I was buying one with a 20" chain. Is there a Makita electric model with a 20" chain.

Easy to assemble. Easy to use. Good chain tension adjustment. I have their petrol one and as good as one another. Has eaten through the likes of oak, birch, pear. If you want one chainsaw to cover most situations, and ok with a power cord, this is the one!

It is as described ( a bit on heavy side ) - but strong. Stil you can not compare performance with petrol powered chainsaws.Prompt service and delivery. Just Excellent.....
