Better than Oregon and OEM chains
I tried out these chains and I was skeptical, but they cut smooth, dig in well, throw big chips, lubricate really well due to the oil hole and channels. Haven't had to sharpen one yet, they hold a good edge. I will buy this chain for all my saws because they are great quality and a fraction of the price.

Great value and solid performance
I’ve been impressed with this chain so far. It fits properly, installed easily, and cuts clean and smooth. No issues with vibration or tracking. I’m mostly using it for general property maintenance — trimming limbs, cutting up small fallen trees, nothing heavy commercial — and it’s been holding up well. Stays sharp longer than I expected at this price point. For typical homeowner use, it’s a great buy. Would purchase again.

Just as nice as Stihl branded chains!
Worked perfect - no difference found from the brand name chains. These sharpen just as easily as brand name ones and are a fraction of the total cost. They install just the same and really no difference at all but the cost savings!

Solid replacement chain at a great price
I have been using this chain on my Ridgid chainsaw, and it has worked just as well as the more expensive name-brand chains I have used. It is very sharp out of the box and handles fallen trees on our property, along with general cleanup after storms, without any problems. Installation is quick and easy. One tip: check the chain tension often to make sure it does not become too loose on the bar. Like any chain, it lasts much longer if you avoid cutting into dirt. When it does start to dull, it sharpens nicely with a power sharpener, which adds even more value by extending its usable life. Overall, this is a solid chain for the money, and I would buy it again.

Best 16" chain I have ever used.
Best 16" chain I have ever used. And I have been using chainsaws for 35 years. These chains retain their sharpness and cut better than the more well-known brands. They fit my Poulan perfectly. Highly recommended!

Pole Saw Chain 8 Inch 3/8
This KAKEI replacement chain is a solid match for the DeWalt 8‑inch pole saw. It installs easily, seats securely, and runs smoothly right from the first cut. The teeth are sharp out of the package, giving clean, efficient cuts through branches without bogging down or grabbing. What stands out is how well it holds its edge. With proper oiling, it stays sharp through multiple trimming sessions, and it doesn’t stretch out quickly the way cheaper chains sometimes do. The .043" gauge and 34 drive links fit DeWalt’s 8" bar perfectly, so there’s no guesswork. If you want a reliable, affordable replacement chain that restores your pole saw’s cutting power without any hassle, this one is a great choice.

Great quality and value for the price
They are great quality chains for you chain or pole saw at a fair price. They are super sharp, cut quickly, and provide excellent wear and life. I highly recommend them if you are in the market for some replacement chains for your equipment.

Cuts decent. Just needs to be tensioned a bit more frequently than other chains.

This is a honest review after I use it for 10 cords of wood. First 5 cords went like butter , my chainsaw oil pump was not working and nothing really happen to the chain by cutting small to medium wood size After 5 I sharp the chain 2 times and its pretty easy to sharp by hand because its mild steel not like stihl chains that are more solid chains For the price its perfect for small and medium use but If you are planning to cut hard and big trees I would recommend getting stihl chains or else you will change the chains more often!

Don’t buy!!! Don’t buy!! Don’t buy!! Ordered the 14” chain for my STIHL msa220 battery saw last may/2025.I have had all three chains break on me now….. The first one lasted the longest , about a month. Ok I thought… maybe it was my fault. Only the second chain in my 45 years of cutting wood. The second one broke after two weeks…5/6 sharpenings. The last broke after two days… one sharping. ITS DANGEROUS!!! When a chain breaks!!! Not only to for operator but the chainsaw too.I’m never ever buying these KAKEI saw chains again..
