WEN Electric Pole Saw, Corded, 8-Amp, 10-Inch with 14-Foot Reach (CP0810)

I normally don't do reviews but i had to on this saw. I was not sure if it could handle the load of work i was doing and to my surprise not only did this saw outperform my expectations and gave me no problems at all and the best part is the convenient chain adjuster that works like a charm. I would highly recommend this unit and any WEN product because they have quality. I would definitely purchase WEN products in the future. The chain that came with it has lasted over 100 cuts so far and still going. This WEN is the best value on the market and easy to handle. The materials look like its made from very durable plastic and so far it has not shown any signs of wear.

So I bought this to use on my palm from and it didn't disappoint! Cut like butter so I moved on to my evergreen that cut even easier up to about 3". Wife said cut that dead apple branch laying the yard. 4"-6" and no issues. Check the oul after quite a bit of use and it hardly used much oil. Wife said get that main stump that had the bees so I went at it cutting sections off this 1.5 ft apple base. No problem. Great little saw. Kinda heavy and awkward until you get used to it. I didn't like the safety trigger and still haven't really figured it out but hey this thing has plenty of power. I bought a set of replacement chains and the dewalt oil as well. Very happy with this purchase.

The power "trigger" only worked some of the time. Most of the time, however, it felt like it got stuck and would not go all the way to the activation point. I've used a Black and Decker pole saw with a similar trigger configuration for years and with no issues. This defect makes the the saw not only frustrating to use but also dangerous. The pole felt like it was good and sturdy as did the cutting head. But if the trigger is junk, well, so is the rest of it if it can't be used. High hopes were dashed.

The first Wen electric pole saw I ordered came to me used with parts missing. I quickly returned and exchanged for a new one. The second one was new with all parts. This is a great pole saw. It has a high reach and cuts well.

My new CP0810 arrived on time and undamaged in the manufacturers packaging. Unpacking and assembly was easy. It's heavier than I expected (nbd). The unpacking instructions are a riot: "With the help of a friend or trustworthy foe, such as one of your in-laws, carefully remove...". From reading other reviews I assumed it would come with chain oil. IT DOES NOT COME WITH CHAIN OIL and the reservoir is dry (as expected for shipping). You will need to fill the reservoir with appropriate chain oil before using. Somehow I missed that part. Looks like it should work fine, but I won't know until the oil gets here. Hopefully I will remember to update the review after I use it a bit.

It works great. Love how simple it is.

best pole saw ive ever owned so far. havnt even had to sharpen the chain yet

I am impressed with the quality and performance of this product. I have used it number of times and it works very well. Just keep the chain lubrication tank full. Cuts cleanly.
