Best Chainsaw? Milwaukee, DeWalt, Ego, Stihl & More!

[@rtgray7]

Curious Why you didn't include the Ego 20" Farm and Ranch? I was hoping to see what you thought! I have the 18" and it is a great saw.

[@Protoolreviews]

We actually just received that saw in the shop! We've got a lot more hands on testing to do before we can make a definitive call on it, but keep an eye out as it very well could be included in future updated articles/videos!

[@TheDwightMamba]

I also have been running the 18" for 3 years. What a stud. That said, I'm skipping over the 20" Ranch and going straight to the 20" Pro.

[@reusefull]

The CSX5000 commercial series Ego is out and that trumps the CS2000 20 inch. It will outcut a 60cc gas at 30m/s and probably the MSA300C. 3.5kw

[@johnkrisovitch69]

​@Protoolreviews i got one too. And I've had the 18 last year. Both run great. There is also a commercial grade ego 20". 72 drive link standard style chain. Wider bar. cs 2005 is a lp 69 drive link . 3/8 .05 Guage. Lil more pain for grabbing chains. But 5 trees in. No issues. Commercial grade also gives a load meter on the screen. And oiler adjustment. But the m18 20" coming out looks to be a beast.@ 70 cc " equivalent "

New Milwaukee dual battery chainsaw

[@chrissheldrick4073]

Nice review and presentation.. Did you try any of the makita chain saws?

[@StuckInTheMatrix20]

Not Honest review paid by Ego company

[@joshuaclaygaines]

Lop, I take it you have never owned or used EGO?

[@t0fast]

All of the saws were of the same Chinese company with the exception of Stihl and Husqvarna. Not having a thing on DeWalt, which is the most used battery saw by pros after Stihl, with the exception of a quick mention is very questionable.

[@parrotgaming1960]

Project Farm does honest reviews and DeWalt and Echo stomped the majority of other saws. Disappointed to see an Ryobi but no DeWalt, considering I own BOTH I know the DeWalt blows the doors off the Ryobi.

[@Jcabrera1206]

i like the Ego trimmer and blower, so considering buying their chainsaws too

[@rtgray7]

I also have those along with the 18" chainsaw and it is the best chainsaw I've ever owned.

[@frommatorav1]

I've got a 16" Ego chainsaw with 5ah battery and their 10" pole saw bare tool from 3 years ago and have been happy with both. Watching videos to get motivated to break them out this season and there is a heat wave. lol

[@pf4773]

When I read the positive endorsements of the ego chainsaw I am suspicious of how much these owners are actually using their devices. I'm a homeowner but with a large hardcore yard with major hedges and small trees. Even with what I consider minimal use the ego 16 inch chainsaw is a nightmare of chain slipping off after mere seconds at times. Regardless if it is small limbs, hedges, tree limbs that are free of twists, the chain will not stay on, and that includes professional tensioning. Interior parts of the machine around the sprockets are actually plastic, and I've been told this is the reason. If your chain constantly slips you simply can't use the device. I am NOT alone-this is a common problem. I was on a camping trip and met up with guys using STIHL battery chainsaws. The owner told me he has zero issues with chain slippage.

[@Jcabrera1206]

@@pf4773 i ended up buying the 16 inch chainsaw before hurricane Beryl hit and it’s been working well cutting all the fallen trees on my 4 acre property. haven’t had those issues with slipping. i also got the push mower and it’s cutting very thick tall grass after water settled. i’m surprised it’s capable enough to power through it all.

[@tgsgardenmaintenance4627]

I bought the Milwaukee M12 hatchet just for pruning, and it has been excellent! I did look at the M18, but in the UK it was way too expensive!

[@txvet7738]

I bought the M12 hatchet myself before Milwaukee came out with the M18 version. I swapped the 6” bar/chain for the M18 8” bar/chain and it still works great for me.

[@JohnR9965]

I’m sticking with gas. Those prices are not cheap for what they are.

[@ChampionFirewoodManitoba]

We use both. I like my gas saws but electric has a place

[@YankeeWoodcraft]

EGO 56V 20" Farm and Ranch Saw - Model CS2000 You're going to have to get it Sensitivity Training Classes after it drags everything else you tested in this video.

[@reusefull]

Check the Ego CSX5000... that will drag the CS2000!

[@joshuaclaygaines]

​@@reusefull5000 overheats

[@reusefull]

@@joshuaclaygaines true story. Very disappointing.

[@joshuaclaygaines]

@reusefull there are work arounds, several videos on them on here. I have the 2000, works great, I havnt had any battery or charger problems myself, even with knock off batteries...

[@reusefull]

@joshuaclaygaines The 2000 has been pretty good, but I haven't found a good way to keep batteries from overheating with the 5000 if it's getting used hard. I figure that it will be OK when the next generation of batteries comes out. I tried the 10ah and the 12ah, I tried changing the 8 spur for a 7, but I get about 6 big cuts no matter what and the battery gets hot. I did some videos on it. So far of the electric chainsaws, the Ego CS2000 and Greenworks 60v 20 inch are my favorites. Not a fan of the 69 drive link chain just because of availability, but that's a pretty small complaint overall.

[@txvet7738]

I went with the Milwaukee M18 Top handle as my all purpose saw and the Greenworks 20” 60v for my large jobs. That Greenworks is a beast! Would y’all consider the dedicated Milwaukee pole saw over the Quik-Lok pole saw attachment for a DIYer?

[@reusefull]

That 60v Greenworks is the best deal going on my opinion... especially kitted with the 8ah battery and charger for $500

[@cliffordmontana4562]

The telescoping Milwaukee Pole saw is an absolute beast! It’s as fast through wood as my Stihl gas saw. Buy one! Factory Authorized outlet will have it 20% off for Memorial Day. $480 plus tax is a deal. It’s 10x the saw of the quick lock pole saw.

[@kperellie]

Why did you not test Makita?

[@joshuaclaygaines]

Cause it was Acme, lowes, and HD's top selling

[@4x4rcoff-roadtractors54]

Yeah I was looking at a bigger electric chainsaw I have a small one really cheap but I was looking at this Toro chainsaw I saw online it was electric and it was only $150 don't know how good it was but it was 60 volts and I think a 16-in bar if I need to dig into it cuz it seems like a good price a good deal for the price

[@ChampionFirewoodManitoba]

My brother and I both bought a Milwaukee. Mine had an oil leak issue brothers didn't. Still fine enough and been using it for years. One of my batteries got corrupted early on and that wasn't fun...those batteries are expensive

[@stephenpryor5063]

I think you should have covered the RYOBI 40v 18 inch it has a crazy speed and coupled with the 12 ah or 6 ah battery it’s up there in the commercial class.

[@Fly2kill1]

I just got a Kobalt 24v mini chain saw to do some pruning and it’s awesome.

[@Jeff-rk8hq]

The 2727 over the 2826? That’s crazy idc if one’s a rh the top handle will pull the Same sized bar

[@D-Vinko]

Really lacking not including Greenworks

[@spikeman68]

milwaulkee tools with the 12.0 batts are the best.........hands down

[@johnbailey9682]

I noticed you were only using battery saws . So what happened to the EGO TOP HANDLE CHAINSAW ?

[@IYar56]

You're right. Gas powered is cordless lol.

[@genemetz1945]

Why does no one evaluate the Kobalt 80-volt brushless 18" chainsaw with a 5ah 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 my 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

[@dashriprock2916]

I have 3 80v Kolbalt tools . 2 of the batteries are inop within 3 years of light use just outside of warranty. That's why i'm watching this video wanting something more reliable.

[@shanepipkin4041]

where is husqvarna

[@diygiysmith9382]

Have you tested the new dewalt top handle?

[@shubhammajumdar8762]
