ZEEKSAW Mini Chainsaw 6 Inch Cordless, Super Handheld Chainsaw with 2x Big Batteries, Electric Mini Chain saw Battery Powered, Small Hand saws for Tree Wood - Garden Yard Time Saving Tool

I love this little chainsaw. I can't tell you how excited I was to go out and start using it on my tree branches outside. I felt powerful! Felt like I could cut down anything. I looked for things to cut around the house. It's truly easy to use. I love this and would recommend it to anyone.

I recently purchased the Zeeksaw Mini Chainsaw, and I’m really impressed with how powerful it is for its size! It’s lightweight, making it easy to handle, and the 6-inch blade is perfect for cutting small branches, firewood, and even trimming trees around the yard. The battery life is surprisingly good—I was able to get quite a bit of work done before needing to recharge. Plus, the fact that it comes with extra accessories like safety glasses, gloves, and a carrying case is a nice bonus. Setup was simple, and adjusting the chain tension is straightforward. If you need a compact, cordless chainsaw for light to medium yard work, this one gets the job done! Highly recommend for homeowners and DIYers looking for convenience and power in a small package.

I bought this saw to bring with me on my motorcycle to help clear downed trails out in the wilderness. The key selling points were the price ($50 for the kit when I purchased), light weight, compatibility with Makita batteries, and compact size. I just received this saw today and took the opportunity to test it out on some firewood rounds that I had in the back yard. I tested it using a not-quite-fully-charged makita 5.0ah battery pack. I made one cut through a 2" maple branch followed by 3 cuts through a 6" maple round. The saw stalled on the first cut through the 6" maple round, but started up again after about 15 seconds and completed the cut. Beside the stall, the cutting performance was good, and smooth. The saw cut easily using normal hand pressure and only chattered minimally when getting started through the log. The saw did not stall on the second cut, but the brushed motor was sparking a lot from the high load. I noticed the saw smelled very hot after the first two cuts, and ran it at idle for several seconds to try to cool it off. I noticed that there was not much air flow coming from the motor when running, it appears that the motor does not have a very big cooling fan, if at all, which will limit this saw's duty cycle. I also noticed that the chain had loosened a bit after the first two cuts, so I re-tightened it and used the included bottle to lubricate the chain with chainsaw bar/chain oil. The third cut performed the same as the previous two, with continued heat smell from the saw. Overall, this saw cuts very well, with some caveats. I would not recommend it for commercial use due to the undersized cooling fan on the motor, I would estimate a duty cycle of about 20% would be the maximum for this saw if you wanted it to last a long time. I didn't use the included batteries for testing but they both made the saw run, which is a good value for this kit. Time will tell if this saw holds up, I am a bit concerned that the motor will burn out due

This is my new favorite tool. I actually like that I have to learn how to take it apart, clean and oil the chain, clean out the parts, etc. It's not a great tool for me if I don't know how to fix it or care for it correctly. I love that it is so safe to use, designed for one handed use so you can use the other to hold unruly branches.

If some are getting this, after years of cutting down trees, landscaping - you know what you are getting and can evaluate it well enough. However for a "new" to this person and for the price I got it for - I can recommend it. However, if you are "casual" or clumsy in ANY manner - use it the first time with someone who may mentor you in safety. Yes, it's far smaller than even the smallest gas powered, e.g. 16" chain saw, et alia - however no less dangerous - more so ? - since may take it for granted. So, if the components hold up, motor, batteries, charger, esp past a second season of use - it is a bargain. I had a 4" last season and this spring one batt pk didn't work and could not be fixed, and OEM no longer sells - (get another batt?). However, *this* one even at 21v (vs 36v of other and questioned it anyway!) ... works perfectly and so the charger all interchangeable. (They all appear this year to be 21v and same housing, configuration - generally speaking "generic-china" offering, in my observation, imo.) Anyway, this 6" is great and +- if a 4" is better or not. I was pruning fruit trees last year for 4" was better for that. This year - other stuff and the 6" is generally "better" +-. In any of these if get 2-batts and 2-chains - great. Most probably won't know how to sharpen, and may change to 2nd one - don't hit dirt, esp rocks and will last as-is long enough for the "home" project person. The plastic housing is heavy enough in all the components. This one with the twist nut not requiring a wrench to tighten chain is *great. The "screw" to adjust that further - would do well to provide a thumb adjustment too! The screw is tight and hard to get to - but functional. All in all, pending price point and if it lasts - great purchase imo. - I saw he ones with "oilers" but wondered if worth the + money and etc. On a "real" chainsaw, so to speak, it's a must. Her just keep a can of hand pump engine oil, or a spray as you like. You may likely have to oil the chain 1 - 3 x's per battery and clean it prior to storing. When "new" it *will* stretch (the chain) and settle in and you will have to adjust it in the first hour or so of use. Then should settle down. If it binds more and more and not from the Batt running down - oil it, clean it out, wipe it off when take a break. Again, if it lasts, but since appears interchangeable as commented, this one was the right price and lowest. This whole "power" and amps and volts stuff with this kind of thing, generally speaking is all "iffy" in my experience. This one, rated lower than last years operates/feels more robust all around. If anyone knows math and DC current and test "environments" and etc. - don't count on stuff being up to any precise spec from what I can see. They want them to work, and not bind so will likely make them to be functional - as I see/experience it - look at that with this stuff as I did - it's far less confusing. This one seems, w/o testing it with meters and etc. to be what they say it is. So, good enough in that regard for me - to qualify this of why 5-stars and etc. "over all". It could be better as I said, the blade tension adj screw - external thumb or less tight a spot and some kind of "proper" (proper) oiler would be great. I like that when/if binds (the chain) it stops (a good thing) and mostly when batt runs down - but, just back off or mind proper cutting protocol and keep the fresh batt handy. But at least one won't risk seeing blue smoke - if kept trying to cut like an AC unit may - good self protection I see in these. I hope that helps someone! (PS: for the price of a new batt to replace my old one - got this! And so, 2-batts and add'l charger etc.)

When purchased this I assumed it be a waste of money. But because it's so cheap I thought I'd give it a try. It's been very useful to me for cutting small limbs and not so small. I climbed a pecan tree to cut a limb that was probably 8 inches in circumference. Yes, I had to go at it from different angles to get it cut, but it was so easy to use. I could not have used a typucal chainsaw for the job. I recommend to neighbors, they seem to use the hands away more than I do. However, do not think this is a hedge trimmer, because it will not work for that. The stems and branches you cut with this need to be very rigid or it will chew up the branches and its a mess. Trust me, my neighbors and I have been too tempted to try and cut hedges or vines with it. It will NOT work of light weight of flexible branches and stems.

I hike and ski a favorite area of my mountains and also do trail maintenance when there are trees across the main access trail. Been using hand tools for years, except in "emergencies" when a time crunch demands a chain saw. But full sized saws are not easy to hike with, so I've been researching a better alternative for quite some time. Finally pulled the trigger on the Zeeksaw and am very happy I did. As you can see in the photo, this little guy is a champ, even able to take down a bigger opponent, like this 8" diameter aspen that had blown down. It takes some finesse, and a slow deliberate approach so as not to work it too hard - thick trees do increase the friction and work load. It also helps if the tree is at an angle so that you can use its weight to snap the last, middle section of the wood. I continue to use my hand tools, like a claw bar and rubber mallet, to remove some of the outer layers and reduce the necessary cutting diameter. But my Zeeksaw did the deep cuts that let the claw take the bites, and was willing to pose for a picture afterward. ;-) When I was researching products, a key fact I wanted to know was how long the batteries last. Sorry to report I don't have a hard number, as I generally run it just a few minutes at a time so as not to overheat it (warm summer). I am still using the hand tools as well, so I can keep working for hours and have power for the cuts that I want to be making with it. Overall, I'm very satisfied with how much wood the two batteries have been able to cut in the course of a day's hike.

This tool seems simple in theory and when you can get it to work right, it's great, but adjusting and tightening the blade is a logistical nightmare, even with two people it is near impossible. I do like how everything is compact in one case.

I bought this mini chainsaw to help with cutting small branches, light tree trimming, and clearing dead roots and debris around my backyard. It has been a great tool for general yard maintenance and makes the work much faster and easier compared to manual cutters. It’s very easy to use and surprisingly powerful for its size. It cuts smoothly and quickly—most small branches only take a few seconds to get through. It’s especially useful for routine cleanup and maintaining trees without much effort. That said, I would not recommend it for large or thick branches, as it can struggle and the chain may get stuck or stressed. It’s definitely best suited for smaller jobs, which is what it’s designed for. Overall, it’s a very efficient and convenient tool that saves time and effort in the yard. For light to medium trimming tasks, it works really well and I would highly recommend it.

After using this saw for two seasons, I absolutely love it. At first I had some trouble getting the chain tension right, and it fell off twice before I got it right. The screw adjustment is a little tricky but once I got it tightened it was fine. Manual oiling is not a problem, just use plenty and it doesn't need to be constantly re oiled. The battery life is quite good, lasting an hour or more of intermittent cutting in the woods, plus the second battery is great to continue on. I am left handed and I chose this model because it was advertised as left friendly: it certainly is. Secondly, the weight of the saw is so light, it's extremely easy to use and carry. I only once had a 'kickback' type issue, that was cutting thicker green wood close to the ground and it jerked forward due to the pinch. Not a big deal but user should be aware of chainsaw safety, and keep your body parts out of the plane of the cut. For greener or thicker wood, cut a vee first to avoid the pinch. I will mention that I afterwards bought an 8 inch saw to tackle some bigger things, but was surprised at how much more it weighed. The 8 inch is at the limit, for a person my size, to comfortably use one handed while bracing with the other hand, but I did find that my elbow on the bracing arm got jerked a bit too much and got sore. I also couldn't carry it around all day without feeling the weight. So unless you're a big guy, if you're looking for a safe and easy tool to cut one handed, the six inch saw is a great choice.

I have a blue spruce in the front corner of the yard that is about 40 feet tall. I had to clean up the bottom branches as they were starting to encroach onto the sidewalk and road on the other side. After an initial charge of both batteries I set out to prune the bottom 8 feet of branches. The saw worked extremely well and met my expectations. It was easy to handle and not heavy at all making this pruning job much easier as it allowed me to use one hand to hold the branch and the other to cut with. A full size chain saw would have required another person to hold and move branches. Clean up after the work was easy and I put everything back in the convenient case that the product came in. It came with a full spare chain which I did not need to use but have once the original one becomes dull. The only thing that was a struggle was that as I used the saw the chain became loose over time and needed to be re-tightened frequently. Also, would have been nice had they included a small bottle of chain oil as I did not have any and had to purchase it separately after cleaning up the blade to store it. Overall I recommend this handy tool for any home owner for small projects and give it a 4 gold star rating.

This little chainsaw is fantastic for general garden use. It has more power than my corded 11" electric chainsaw and is a lot easier to manage in tight spaces as I clear out overgrown & neglected trees (hardwoods) and break down branches to use in the gardens or fit in the city organic waste bin. Having a hard case is handy to keep accessories on hand (e.g., for oiling the chain every once in a while, though I swapped out the tinted glasses for clear safety glasses), and nice for storing it with its batteries and charger (no risk of losing anything). The battery housing is VERY snug, it's a bit of a wrestle to free it for charging but not too much so. Fresh/live woods are no problem, it chews through easily. Dried/aged woods being denser, there *can* be a bit of kickback so be careful and work slowly. For the price and convenience, I would recommend this chainsaw.

I am an older woman who just wanted a simple, small chainsaw to cut down the branches that fall off our trees every winter without having to count on anyone else's help. This chain saw is small, light and easy to use. I have only used it twice, each time for about an hour. I did not have to change the battery either time. The chainsaw fit in my hand comfortably and cut the limbs, 1-4" in diameter, smoothly. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants something simple and light. In fact, when my husband saw how easy it was to use, he came out to help with the work without even being asked. I did have an issue with the chainsaw early on (probably caused by my complete lack of knowledge in the tool) but the customer service rep, Anna, was incredibly helpful and she rectified the situation quickly. Both the chainsaw and the customer service were better than I could have hoped for. Just a couple of tips for newbies to chainsaws, when you have to tighten the chain, loosen the cover about a 1/4 of a turn and then tighten the screw for the chain to about 2mm (or 1/16") give. When chain is tightened, then tighten the cover FIRMLY. Check the chain often when using, although we found that once we figured out how tight to make the chain, AND TO VERY FIRMLY TIGHTEN THE COVER, the chain stayed snug throughout the job. I now understand the appeal of power tools, even if it is a lil power tool :)
