Pros
- 40cc gas class power and fast chain speed for a 16 in saw at a low kit price
- Tool free tensioning dials sit low, so it can cut flush to the ground
- Shares batteries with the whole EGO 56V yard tool line
- 5 year tool warranty
Cons
- The included 2.5Ah battery gives about 130 cuts of 4x4; a bigger pack costs extra
- Plastic housing and a .043 in chain are lighter duty than a pro saw
