LOVE IT! Got one for my wife 2 years ago, she is 65 and weighs 95 lb. She will cut with it for hours and has worn it out cutting kindling wood. I think she caused a plastic gear to crack because she wants to cut "sticks" larger than 4 inches in diameter.I ordered a new one and I am going to fix the old one for a spare.
One of my favorite tools ever. I have loaned it to three of my good friends and they all ended up buying one. Much handier than a regular chiain saw for anthing under 4 inches in diameter.
I love this tool. I do a lot of tree trimming and this tool makes quick work of reducing the trimmings to managable sizes. As a matter of fact, I have worn out my first Alligator and am looking for replacement parts.
