DEWALT 20V MAX 8 inch Brushless Cordless Pruning Chainsaw with 3 Ah Battery Included (DCCS623L1)

This saw kicks butt. I’ve had the other $60 saws and the were ok. I was even looking at another that takes dewalt batteries when I came across this saw. 8inch bar with automatic oiler. Came with a 3AH battery that seems to last a long long time when using saw. It is larger than those others but is over twice the power and is built rugged. Easy to operate one handed. The only dislike I have is the safety button to engage the trigger is only on the left side. Right handers can use their thumb to engage the safety but left handers like me must use the other hand. This is not so good. The safety switch should be ambidextrous. My kit came with saw, the mentioned battery, bar cover w/wrench inside and charger but no case. Great little saw!

Highly recommend this chainsaw. It is a workhorse. Lightweight, easy to maintain. Versatile. Great value for the projects I have done including removing branches of 6 inch diameter & greater.

Excellent lightweight pruning saw – perfect for yard workI’ve been using the DEWALT 20V MAX 8-inch Brushless Cordless Pruning Chainsaw (DCCS623) for several months now on regular property maintenance, and it’s become one of my favorite tools in the 20V lineup.What it does wellThis little saw punches well above its size. The brushless motor has plenty of power for an 8-inch bar. It slices cleanly through 3–5 inch branches and handles up to about 6–7 inch limbs without bogging down when the chain is sharp and properly tensioned. It’s excellent for:Pruning trees and shrubsClearing downed limbsCutting brush and small firewoodWorking in tight spots where a full-size chainsaw is overkillAt only 4.6 lbs (tool only) and roughly 8–8.5 lbs with a battery, it’s dramatically easier to handle than a gas saw or even DEWALT’s larger cordless chainsaws. The compact size and low weight make overhead work and ladder work much less tiring. The integrated tip guard is a nice touch for controlled upcuts and helps keep the tip from digging into the ground when you’re working low.Features I appreciateAuto-oiling system (just keep the reservoir filled)Onboard wrench for quick chain tensioningSmooth, low-vibration operationCompatible with the entire 20V MAX battery system (I run it mostly on 4Ah and 5Ah packs)DEWALT claims up to 70 cuts on 4x4 pressure-treated pine with a 3Ah battery, and that lines up with real-world use for typical pruning sessions. With a higher-capacity battery you can easily get through a solid afternoon of yard work.Minor notesLike many mini chainsaws, it can weep a little bar oil if stored on its side — store it upright or on a tray and it’s a non-issue. It’s also safest and most comfortable used with two hands. This is a pruning/limb saw, not a replacement for a full-size chainsaw if you’re felling trees or cutting large diameter wood all day.Bottom lineIf you’re already in the DEWALT 20V system and need a lightweight, powerful, low-fatigue tool for pruning and general yard cleanup, this is an outstanding choice. It feels well-built, cuts efficiently, and makes jobs that used to be a chore much quicker and less exhausting. Highly recommended.

Love this tool. I have a number of DEWALT 20V tools. Purchased this one with a larger battery since I did not have a 3Ah battery. I used it to cut some small branch’s. While I could have purchased a 12” DEWALT chain saw for a comparable price, I didn’t want such a big saw since I will never be cutting logs that require it.

My new favorite yard tool! Makes quick work of branches and tree limbs.

This is a good saw that is really useful when I don't want to get out my Stihl for a small job. My issue was with the charger that came with the saw. After less than 9 months, it quit working. I've reached out to Dewalt to see if it's covered under warranty. And in the meantime, I have a saw with a battery I can't charge unless I fork over more money for another charger that might not be any better than this one ...Update: I talked to Dewalt and they agreed to send me a new charger, which they did quickly. It arrived only a few days after I talked to them. So I'm a happy customer. I really do like the saw ... Upgraded this review to four stars.

Amazing what it will cut and the battery last a long time. Very handy to keep in your atv whenever you on your property.

Thank You Dewalt for making this TOOL; it is a TOOL not a toy with the solid build quality of a real chainsaw. The weight and maneuverability make topping the branches of a fallen tree a pleasure where the fatigue factor is greatly reduced. The light weight frees you other hand for all kinds of necessary maneuvers - The 6.0 AH battery even makes the balance better, and you are still around 5 pounds. The safety button is not an issue for me, and I don't know why other reviews said it was awkward. Maybe they fixed it since those early reviews. My oil tank does not leak, and that was a complaint on other reviews. The additional chains are affordable and tightening the chain works like a traditional chainsaw. This is the perfect tool for formerly exhausting tasks with a heavy chainsaw. This is worth every penny for tasks that wear you out with a heavy and loud chainsaw that you have to constantly stop and restart on the tasks that are not big saw territory- I wish I had bought this sooner, and I could not be more pleased with the performance, price, and build quality- Now that I am in love with the perfect tool, I can quit searching for the perfect woman.

Light weight. Does the job well. Good battery life.

Awesome!! Powerful, light and extremely durable!!! Glad I purchased this tool. Canada Tools were fast and efficient getting it shipped.

Great for what it is. Small portable not too heavy cuts through decent sized branches and logs. Oil definitely leaks as others have said so don't leave full, empty after use. Best one of its size I've tried.

exellant outil de travail.

Je l’utilise au chalet pour ébrancher. Légère, facile à manipuler et aussi facile à ajuster.
