Bosch Chainsaw UniversalChain 35 (1800 W, Weight: 4.2 kg, Chain Speed: 12 m/s, in Carton Packaging)

Great tool and great price.

primarily bought this to cut some old sleepers up and a tree in my garden. had some issues with the chain at first but once it was tight enough it was fine. cut through the sleepers no problem, quite light and easy to use.

I bought this having seen it in a DIY store, I'm not a lumberjack and I'm not cutting down loads of trees, just cutting up logs into smaller chunks for our wood burner. It was a little tricky to put together, mostly getting the chain on was a bit fiddley but once it was put together it worked very well and was more powerful that I expected. It might not be clear but I needed to buy oil as well (this is essential) and once I had it going it cutting up the logs with ease (I would recommend you fully understand the length of the blade). Every now and then I did need to stop sawing to clear the sawdust from the machinery but that wasn't a huge issue. The only other negative point is that the power cord isn't particularly long but I have a good long extension lead which solves that problem.

Fast and efficient at chopping branches up to 6" diameter. Very simple to operate and adjust and clean. Great!

AWful. Not what I expected from Bosch. The chain gets stuck on the bar. The tightening mechanism really jams up and is totally unclear how it works. After about 15 seconds, the chain immediately falls off no matter how "tight" you get it, and then the chain sprocket tightens up so it can't be moved. Dreadful design. Avoid.

This is a great chainsaw. For occasional garden use, for managing a few overgrown trees it is perfect. I used it to cut down a few trees around 8-12 inches in diameter and it coped really well. I'd recommend wearing good quality gloves, visor and safety trousers, as any chainsaw is a dangerous. I'm a big fan of Bosch, having bought many of their products over the years. Great quality, feels solid, good instructions on assembly, includes power cord. It's still quite noisy, only about 25% less noisy than a chain saw, so try to use sparingly and ideally not at weekends. Only way it could be better is if it mentioned that you need chainsaw oil to use. I didn't order any, so that postponed my use by 10 minutes, I popped to Homebase and got some for £5. Great product!! highly recommend.

Great piece of kit for an electric chainsaw. It cuts as good as a petrol. Make sure you use safety kit as this bad boy takes no prisoners!

First ever chainsaw so was worried this wouldn’t be good purchase.Used to remove 3ft off overgrown hedge that hedge trimmer couldn’t deal with.Quality and powerful, chain came off a few times but this was probably just me getting used to using it and having the correct tension on the chain. Stops instantly so very important for safety.
