Looks kinda like a chainsaw and a pair of lopping shears had offspring - but it works great!

Although the LP1000 Alligator may look a little strange and awkward at first, I am really glad that I bought one.  Although I've got lots of bow-saws, hand-saws, chainsaws, cutoff saws, a reciprocating construction-type saw, etc., what finally made me buy this thing was the task of cutting up the body of an old, dead, black pine tree that we removed from our yard.  It got nice and dry sitting in the yard for several months, and when I went to cut it up with my big ol' Husky chainsaw, it was just awkward and scary.  The saw was really too big, and I didn't have a sawbuck or some other good way to hold the tree still while I cut it up.  The Alligator solves that problem, because whatever you're cutting is gripped between the cutting bar and the sharply toothed lower jaw.  Just hold the Alligator like a pair of lopping shears, open the jaws and place them around the branch you want to cut, and squeeze both of the handles.  It even cut the 4-inch-plus trunk of the tree with ease!  It cut a one-hour handsaw job down to about 7 minutes!

I only used it once for about 20 minutes but it works better than I expected for an electric saw.  I guess that is the type of work it is designed to do.  Don't know about longevity or really hard work but for cleaning up the backyard, getting rid of small trees and bushes it was great.  Chain was very sharp...don't let the kids mess with it.  You will need to get some bar and chain oil for a couple bucks locally...its not included.

I used it to sharpen a pair of hedge shears and restored them to being nice and sharp. Beforehand, the shears were breaking bushes' branches instead of cutting them. Now, nice, clean cuts. I practiced first on a few, small hand pruners, then did a lopper with a curved blade. Five or six firm strokes following the original bevel of the blades' edges and zip, zip, I had some nice, sharp edges!

I think the trick will be to sharpen my garden tools pretty often to maintain those sharp edges. This will make it easy and painless to do so.

It's a chain, a very strong chain!  Used along with the high lift jack to remove old fence post.  This thing grips the wood like crazy.  Wish it was a little longer to get twice around a 7 inch fence post but overall this will work with a majority of posts.

I have yet to actually test this saw out, but I can't wait to give it a shot. The seller is very attentive, informative, and seems genuinely concerned with delivering a quality product.

I got a pole saw last summer to try and cut back a few small trees on my land, and found the flexibility of the blade inconvenient. On a whim, I decided to see if there was something a little more robust than the old cable saw I remembered from my brother's boy scout days and found this promising-looking piece of gadgetry. Once it's warm enough, I'll test it out!

This is a surprisingly useful little tool, that fits nicely in a little pouch you can strap on your belt loop or stick in your pocket. It fastens up tight and is easy to store. The blade comes lubricated and sharp - and so it's best only to touch it by the handles. If you hold both handles together so that that chain droops below, you can angle it so it falls into the pouch, folding as it goes.

What it is: a little chainsaw chain with durable canvas handles on either end. You simply wrap the chain around a branch or small tree, and slide it back and forth with your hands. It can cut through branches surprisingly quickly - I got clean cuts on branches about 3" in diameter, in about 15 seconds. You could, likely, do a decent sized tree if you had a bit of patience.

We used it on a recent camping trick to cut branches for cooking marshmallows. It would be invaluable in a survival situation if you had to build a small shelter. It works great in the garden, and it's easy to wrap around branches that would be otherwise tough to reach with either clippers or a regular or electric saw.

A very useful tool. I was given one to try by Stunning Gadgets for the purpose of testing and review.

Was not expecting much from a $40 chainsaw, but man this little thing has power! I needed it to cut down half of a thick bush for our fence and this did the job. Cut through the brush like butter and was very light to hold. Would recommend!

Pulled them out of the package and went to work.  Within minutes, the blade looked like it had been used to sheer rocks rather than bushes, but I did get them done (although I had already trimmed with hedge trimmers.  Then I turned to the boxwood bordering my property to trim off some overgrowth and young maple saplings trying to choke off the sunlight.  I got about 20 feet along the inside line and pop. No more cutting.  Apparently, the little black dot you see in the "titanium" blade in the picture is the where all of the leverage is concentrated and it's more like low-grade cast aluminum than titanium.

On the upside, the foam handles are nice.

You can cut a lot of wood on a charge! The chain oiler doesn't work! I don't want to spend the money shippin it back so I use a oil can! Its a lot of plastic but its pretty tough!  BLESS YOU! THANK YAH!! WHOO!!!?
The chain oiler never worked!
I didn't want to pay shipping to have it fixed!

Cool device! Im impressed with the quality of this little chain mate. The link is actually from a chainsaw with two nylon straps attached to the ends. It's a little heavy for such a small device and comes with a cool little pouch. Can't wait to try it out when I go camping.

I've used the saw a couple of times and am happy with it so far.  Cuts through 2x4's and 2x6's like a hot knife through butter!

I bought this for my son because he wanted a multi-tool like my Leatherman Micra, but has no knife blade. This should satisfy his desire to carry around a multi-tool gadget, without cutting himself, or getting expelled from school if he accidentally brings it in (although no guarantees there, the way administrators are these days!). It is doubtful how useful this tool can really be in actual use (hard to keep the tools from folding), but it works for our purpose quite well.

It does a fairly good job for a battery operated chain saw. Wish it had come with a second battery.

Look kinda like a kids toy, but it works great so far!

I have the Greenworks chainsaw with a pole attachment. But this one adds another dimension with power and size.

Seems more like a sword, but I've been cutting a lot of oak tree suckers around our property and it holds it's edge really well. The case is a bit bulky, but all in all I still like the case as it is solid nylon style and not a soft fabric case. The strapping system allows you to strap in several different ways or on your belt. If this is on sale BUY IT!
