Remington (18") 12-Amp Electric Tool-Less Chain Saw

I purchased the 18 inch Remington based on a previously owned 12 inch inch Remington chain saw. I have to clear 2 acres of tornado downed pines on my property in Alabama . Thus far, the 18 inch Remington saw has performed very well with no problems. I am very tough and demanding on my tools. I want them to work as hard as I do. I don't tolerate breakdowns or pesky problems. Thus far, this has been a worthwhile tool. I recommend it.

Love the chain saw and the price was great. The only issue I have is I had a question about the saw so I called the customer service and I sent an email. Was told I would hear back within 24-48 hrs. I never heard from either one. That would make me think twice about buying from this company again. Turns out I figured out my problem but if I ever did have a question I have no confidence your company would ever get back to me. You should not put on your web site you will get back to people if you are not going to do it. It makes everything else you say questionable. Believe it or not customer service actually means something today and your lack of it will cost you customers. You seem to have a good product and good prices. I hope you work on your customer service.

I used this saw to cut fire wood delivered by semi that was left over side cuts from the mill..This included some very hard Oak and Rock Maple. The saw worked without a hitch. Excellent feature is the oil fill site on the side that lets you know in advance when you are low...the only thing I had to do was sharpen the chain..Great product + the fact produced in Cleveland Ohio and not China.

Salt water flooding from Sandy resulted in many dead trees at my home. I wanted an expensive and durable saw that would get the job done. That is exactly what I got with the Remington RM1840W. I beat the heck out of it and it has much more to dish out! I recommended this saw to my next door neighbor and I recommend it to you also!

Right out of the box. Just added bar oil and away she went. Cut through 18" diamater hickory just like butter. Lots of power. Twice as much as my old 16 inch remington I had for 16 years. Super quick delivery.

A widow with a lot of lawn care to do, many trees, and under growth, I needed something I could use. The Remington worked fine for me.

Purchased the Remington 18 inch electric (RM1850W) with the expectation of a working chainsaw for some old, dry Elm trees. It worked fine in the normal position, but turning sideways and cutting limbs, the oil flowed out from the lower case just about as fast as the blade was able to turn. I tried it on some large tree stumps (over 5 ft diameter) and it seemed to bog down and quit. The bar/chain auto oil finally clogged up and after clearing that problem, the chain kept coming off the bar. Replacing the chain on the bar is very easy with just 1 allen wrench. The tension mechanism is made out of nylon and wears very quickly to the point it is useless. The tension rod bolt wears quickly and seems to bend quite often. Trying to run down replacement parts is almost impossible on the internet or from the company. If you have anything over a 10 inch diameter tree, I would recommend another chainsaw over the Remington...

I bought this chainsaw for use on the Cedar Ranch I live on and it worked better than I hoped for. It cut through small branches and cleared through brush with ease. But when I put it through the tough stuff like thick limbs and tree trunks it blew me away. I never thought this saw could cut trunks of Dedar like a gas saw. It did and I'm telling you this is one tuff electric chain saw. To be up front with you. I really beat the bark out of this saw just so it would break and I lost that deal....I'm sold on this chain saw. And I have a pile of Dedar trees to prove it.

North Carolina ice storm. Lots of branches some hefty. Bought this chain saw with great fear of doing chop job by myself. Saw made it easy for a city boy like myself.

Drained Chane Oil as Per Instructions. Oil Leaks From Bottom of Saw Housing With Saw Stored in Up Right Position.

As the headline says, I'm a wanna be logger. Nobody is knocking at my door to make a show about my wood cutting efforts, but I did live on a Ranch in the mountains with plenty of trees and lots of Beetle Kill. Being in the mountains did not lend itself to electrical cords and tools. I was a gas man! I loved the bar oil and stinky blue smoke. Made me feel like a real man and I wore it like aftershave. The jingle of spark plugs in my pocket was music to my ears.

Well, that was a long time ago. The ranch is still around and so is my old chainsaw. It still works, after a day of beating on it and small engine repair and winters of sleepless nights worrying about the carburetor and gas stability. I'm in the burbs now, living on a nice sized lot. I keep a close eye on my overly large Juniper bushes, cedar fence repairs, raised gardens and other miscellaneous projects around the house. My wife doesn't like my aftershave of yesteryear and the neighbors don't exactly like huffin' blue smoke.

What's a man of my gas powered tool loving nature supposed to do?

Yep. I found this website, got my man purse out and bought an electric chainsaw with some serious hesitation.

The price couldn't be beat. The promise of power, size, and reliability minus the mess, noise, smell, etc., was enticing - but c'mon. I had zero expectations, and frankly, I thought the money I just spent was for testing purposes only.

I recently took down several large sections of a cedar fence and had an unsightly pile building up. I knew the problem needed to be addressed, so I pulled out this electric gizmo. I put some regular oil in the tank and plugged it in. I pulled the trigger and... the sound was different. There was no smell. There was no familiar buck as I pulled the trigger.

I brought that bar down on a nice stack of cedar and it melted through it like butter. Nice big chunks of sawdust mulched the ground. The pile disappeared. I think my neighbors were enjoying a mornin coffee outside on their patio. They knew I was over there, but they asked me what I was doing.

Seriously? You didn't know I was blasting through that massive pile of wood with this here chainsaw?

I could go on, and on with this story, but here's the bottom line. This chainsaw works better than any gas powered device I've ever used. I own allot of garden tools, and I'm always evaluating their performance. Far as this saw goes, I'm trying to break it. I'm trying to burn it out. I'm trying to dislike the thing, but I can't and I love it. Price isn't even a concern. There are more expensive ones on this site and they probably have their place.

Will I be humping this up the mountains knocking down beetle kill? No. The cord won't reach. Will I be buying this for my Dad who still lives up there and is still cutting firewood by the barn? Yes. Will his chainsaw maintenance nightmares disappear like mine did? Yes.

The only question I have now is, can I write this review 20 years later and feel the same way? Doubtful, but only because I know technology will have advanced even further.

Just buy it.

You can thank me later.
