The saw itself is good, tension is easy to set, nice little scabard to go with. Long enough.

The battery is simply unusable. 18v that takes 9.6 hours to charge? Then lasts all of 20 minutes? I have two Dewalt 18-volt XRP batteries that each go all day on a single charge running an impact driver and radial saw, then charge in about 15-20 minutes from dead. Why can't this B&D battery even come close to that?? There's only a $10-15 difference between the Dewalt and B&D battery.

So this saw is only good for very occassional trimming, and just a few cuts before its done for the day (literally).
