Greenworks 40V 8 in Pole Saw Hedge Trimmer Kit, 2.0 Ah Battery and Charger

I was impressed with the quality of this product. The chainsaw is well made and very sturdy. The hedge trimmer is heavier than I would like it to be, but workable. In order to get the right height you have to assemble extensions. My old electric pole chainsaw you just unscrewed the attachment and raise and lower to the height that you needed which to me was easier. The pole assembly is well made and not flimsy. It should last I hope.

This works great. I been working on my mother’s hedges for a while now. Wish I had before and after pictures to really show how good this has worked. The hedges were like 20ft tall no joke now 98% of them are like 5ft tall. The pole saw cuts like butter. Battery last a while I get tired of working before the battery dies. Highly recommends.

I picked up this Greenworks 40V 8" Pole Saw and Pole Hedge combo to handle routine trimming around my property—mainly shaping shrubs along the driveway and cutting back lower tree limbs that were starting to hang over the yard. For general maintenance tasks, it performs well and eliminates the need to drag out gas-powered equipment for smaller jobs. The pole saw has enough cutting power for modest branches, and the hedge trimmer attachment makes it easy to square up taller hedges without balancing on a ladder.The 40V platform provides adequate runtime with the included 2.0Ah battery for light

I bought this product because of the long reach and the light weight. I have a very long pole saw that does not have a motor. This product works much better because the non-motorized pole saws tend to oscillate with the branch and makes the cutting process difficult and sloppy. With this product and one extra 2' extension (sold separately) I can trim tree branches pretty high up in my trees. The chainsaw blade is really handy and cuts through 3-4" branches with ease. There is one customer video of the reciprocating blades being stuck with a one-star review. This happened to mine as well after

Really works great and the 40 volt battery lasts longer than my 60 volt weed eater. The hedge trimmer can clear alot of thick brush

I used the pole saw a few times and have had a pretty positive experience with it. It's easy to handle, cuts well and the battery life is reasonable. The main issue is with the chain getting loose and you have to constantly tighten it, which a matter of loosening the bar and pulling on the bar (there is no screw adjustment for the chain as is found on most chain saws).The reason for the single star is for the hedge trimmer and for the abysmal customer service. About 5 minutes into the second use, the hedge trimmer jammed and would no longer function. There are a number of other reviews that me

I ordered the 80V version first but didn't like it. The 40v poles fully separate. On the 80 v version the pieces were held together with a wire running the length of the poles so you couldn't separate the pieces. Also when you folded the metal rods up there was chafing and strain on the wire. I think the 40v is all around a better design. You can also remove a section on the 40v system to make it shorter something you can't do on the 80v. Power is more than adequate for most homeowners. I have just under a 1 acre property and the battery died (intermittent usage) just before finishing up the l

Initial review: just did a couple quick trims/cuts for an initial test. No hesitation. Well designed and sturdy for the price. Took pliers to get the oil cap off and the chain comes over tightened. The pole connectors are tough to turn, sprayed the male ends with some teflon silicon lube, much better. The shoulder strap is a puzzle, has a clip connecter and a quick release connector. Not sure what the quick release connects to, nothing about it in the manual or online. Any ideas welcome. See photo.
