Best Battery Pole Saws Ranked

A budget brushless pole saw for occasional pruning, especially for owners of Greenworks 24V batteries. Heavy pruning calls for a larger battery.

A good middle choice for yards with mature trees: 14 ft of reach, a 10 in bar and a 4 year warranty on tool and battery. Best for those on the Greenworks 60V system.

A strong value for Ryobi 40V owners who need a 10 in bar for thicker limbs, backed by a 5 year warranty. A bigger battery helps on larger jobs.

A lighter 80V pole saw for Greenworks battery owners who want a 14 ft reach and a 10 in bar. Buy it direct from Greenworks.

A cheap, light pole saw for a few cuts on small trees, best for owners of larger Ryobi 18V batteries. The small battery included runs out quickly.

A light, low cost pole saw for occasional trimming of small branches. Owners of other Sun Joe 24V tools get the most from it.

A light, simple pole saw for homeowners trimming small branches up to about 13 ft. Best for those already on WORX PowerShare batteries.

A light, long reaching pole saw for homeowners who prune often or already own EGO 56V batteries. The carbon fiber shaft and 5 year warranty justify its higher price.

A budget kit for occasional pruning of small branches. Owners who prune often should pay more for an automatic oiler.

A quiet, light pole saw for Ryobi 18V owners pruning small trees near the house. Taller trees call for a longer saw.

A good value kit for homeowners on CRAFTSMAN V20 who prune small branches now and then. The big battery runs a long time, but hand oiling is a chore.

For homeowners who want one tool for light pruning overhead and small cutting jobs on the ground. The detachable head saves buying a separate small chainsaw.

A strong value for owners of Greenworks 80V tools who want a 14 ft reach and a 10 in bar. Lighter saws are easier to hold up for long sessions.

An inexpensive pole saw for light pruning on small yard trees. Pick a longer, brushless saw for limbs above about 11 ft.

For CRAFTSMAN V20 owners who want a faster, self oiling pole saw for regular yard pruning. Add a bigger battery for longer sessions.

A professional telescoping pole saw for arborists, utility crews and landscapers already on M18 batteries. Homeowners will find it heavy and costly.

A pro grade telescoping pole saw for crews and serious users already on Makita 18V LXT batteries. Its weight and price are hard to justify for occasional pruning.

A versatile choice for landscapers on M18 who want one power head for a pole saw and other QUIK-LOK attachments. For high limbs, the telescoping 3013 reaches farther.

For Toro 60V owners who need more cutting power than a 20V saw gives. Its short pole and weight make it a poor pick for high branches.

For homeowners who want one battery powerhead for pole pruning plus trimmer and edger attachments. Buyers who only need a pole saw can spend less.

A good pick for DeWalt 20V MAX owners who want 15 ft of reach, while kits remain in stock. Others can buy the DCPS620B tool only and add a battery.
