After having fuel gell the carbs due to not being used,see below. They seldom get used at home whenever hurricanes hit the Ga coast (Idalia only fell a single tree). The activate button on both saws,router,weed-whacker are rage inducing triggers. Some bucket trucks have small hydraulic saws. If i was a professional ,price would be last on my priorities.

Great review! I have the Milwaukee M18 14" top handle saw, which is great for me as a non-pro who does a fair amount of tree work for myself/family/friends and it shares the same battery platform as my other tools. I can't imagine going back to the Husqvarna T435 gas top handle saw I was using before. If I were a pro up trees all day every day, I'd probably choose the Husqvarna for a battery saw. The M18 top handle saw is fine hanging off my Sequoia harness but it's just bulkier and not nearly as refined as the Husqvarna. The new Stihl is a monster in performance but also in size and weight. That's probably only going to matter on big stuff that I may as well drag my Stihl 261 up the tree to do and it will do it better. It's a gas saw that wouldn't be allowed in very few locations but otherwise could do bigger bucking work. Most tree work pros are already going to have a bigger saw (or multiple) anyway, so the Husky is still likely the best arborist top handle saw. I say that as a Milwaukee cordless tool and Stihl auto-tune gas saw fan. Husky just hit the right balance overall. I'm looking forward to v2 of the Milwaukee top handle saw in the next couple years. They did a great job with this current version that was their first attempt at a top handle chainsaw. I hope v2 will take all the learnings from this version and add a lot of refinement to the solid platform they've started. A slimmer design with captive bar nut, bigger dogs, and dual loops (one for lanyard, one for harness hook) on the rear like the Husky has could make for a true competitor even for top level pro climbers.

Yeah, I'm a Line clearance Arborist myself. I've been wanting to buy my own personal trim saw for private work. I've seen the popularity grow on these electric saws. So I wanted to see how they are doing as far as performance goes. To see if it would be beneficial to get over a 200t or the newer 201tc. From seeing this video, it appears that I wouldn't be benefiting much by going electric. I'd want something that's at least close to the 200t or 201tc. With that mentioned, it's almost silly to pay 3-500$ more for the bigger electric stihl saw. It's actually heavier than the gas version. So what am I gaining? Quieter saw, and the fact I wouldn't need to lug a tank of fuel around with me, a battery would be much lighter. The other thing would be that I have power on demand, vs having to continuously start the saw over and over or have it idling making noise the whole time. I only looked into these, because number one. I figured they'd be lighter. And I was thinking they'd be a good bit cheaper. I figured since the gas saw is around 800. The electric would be no more than 5 to 600. Boy was I mistaking! I mean, if I'm paying $500 more for a saw. It better be a lot of bells and whistles over its gas counterpart. So looks like gas is still the better option imo.

Awesome test as usual, can't wait for the next one! I have a small feedback about the scoring system, I don't think that you should value all points and categories equally and linearly. For example if the fastest saw is really ahead of others, it will still just get one point less. You should give the points for the category relative to the result, not just the position. Similar story for the final rank, you are valuing all the categories equally for the total score, but for eg something like loudness and cutting speed are surely not equally important and should be scored with a different multiplier for the total score. That is just my humble opinion and a small nitpick, hopefully I am not being too hard :) I still think you have some of the best comparative tests in the industry!

@@riba2233 I think the points are helpful but really you have to evaluate the whole review to get a sense of a tool. Like if a tool cuts fast but vibrates a lot, is loud and maybe heavy then you need to see all that. The subjective part of reviews for ergonomics and similar is hard to score but also where listening to experts can point out some flaws or hidden advantages.

Wow great test here! Few additions from the field: echo has some problems with batteries and chargers going bust suddenly, but these have always been replaced with no hassle, so hats off there. I find also that the echo is way more silent than the Husqvarna, so I do not agree with that test result. Also, the Husk had problems with its electronics: it just goes dead and that's it. To the dealer, the second time already, but the problem still exists. The Stihl 161 t has a chain I really dislike. So small, tiny. The slightest error in filing will cause big problems. The stihl 220 is indeed a beast. It goes through the battery likewise. My take would be: The best allround: the husq. The best tree removal saw the stihl 220. The best pruner by far (for old men): the echo.

Why does no one evaluate the Kobalt 80-volt brushless 18" chainsaw with a 5-ah battery? - - I have (2) Kobalt 80-volt 18" Bar Chainsaws and use (2) 5 AH Batteries. Using it on a Southeast LA farm that was devastated by a Hurricane and has been working absolutely great even cutting huge logs and trees. For oil, I like to use Ryobi Bar and chain oil. We have cut 20"+_ logs and it works like a charm. And NO more pulling and pulling to start a gas-powered chainsaw. My first 80-volt 18" Bar Chain saw with a 5-AH Battery and charger was $400 in Jul 2021 I'll stick with the battery. With two batteries to rotate. I'm 78 and only work for only an hour or two each session. I hate pulling to start and fiddling with the gas engines to keep them running. I'm not an environmentalist. And if my job was cutting trees, I would only use Gas chainsaws.

14:05 ~ I'm sorry but how could you *not* include price in your rankings? Especially when for less than half the cost of a Husqvarna, the Milwaukee _easily_ holds its own against it. Easily! Price isn't going to skew anything. It's going to help someone make an informed decision. If we're talking someone whose new to the Trade, someone starting out, has to provide their own chainsaw; price becomes a HUGE factor. Also, not having to deal with Husqvarna's absolutely abysmal customer service if something breaks down, that is a huge, hidden advantage. (I don't mean customer service from a shop that is an Authorized Husqvarna Dealer. I mean trying to deal with Husqvarna in North America, directly.) Honestly, if Husqvarna simply got rid of its customer service operations, THAT itself would be a major improvement over what exists now.

No EGO saw? It is probably better than any of these tested. Kind of disappointing.

Someone else asked. He mentioned that it’s not “pro grade”. Just the messenger.

How are you backing up that statement? Are you an arborist or climb with a chainsaw?

The new, redesigned 18" model is the best I've used. Compared to their older 14" and 16" inch models it is vastly superior in every way. Your 2020 chainsaw showdown didn't compare the 18" model. I've used it vs the Milwaukee and it is better in every way except weight. @@ConcordCarpenter

Are you an Arborist? It's pretty obvious you aren't and I can guarantee you. You haven't tried all these saws out either. Cutting brush or down trees is completely different than climbing and cutting up in a tree? I always find it amazing, how people want to claim a saw they've used. Is the best, when they've haven't used many saws in their entire life. You wouldn't be referring to the Ego saw that's got a battery pack and cable attached to it would you? Because that would tell me, you have no idea what it's like climbing/trimming trees for a living! The last thing you want is more shit that will get hung up on you while climbing. Not to mention if a branch you cut grabs it on the way down. It's going to most likely rip the cable out or damage the battery pack. I just watched another channel that did compare that saw to the smaller stihl saw and it was noticeably slower.

Banning gas powered engines is asinine, as lithium batteries are way more toxic for the environment.

Not really. There is a solution to the lithium battery issue, and that is to recycle them. Plenty of ways government can incentivize this. The only solution, that we can presently see, to the fossil fuels issue is to stop using them.
