electric tree saw - any recommendations?

[leavesthataregreen]

I'm sick of paying hundreds of pounds every time I want to wilderness at the bottom of our garden cut back. We keep it wild for wildlife but if it gets too tall it blocks out the light and the view of the countryside.

Any advice on what brand or style of electric saw to go for that can cut through very woody brambles, hawthorn etc. Would be great if it was strong enough to cut through fruit tree branches too as I need to thin them out as well.

Do you mean a chainsaw? If so then we have a stihl battery operated one and it’s fantastic. Our tree surgeons actually changed it to when they tried ours. You would use a chain saw for branches,

However for brambles etc Youd use a set of long handled loppers.you wouldn’t use a saw.

We have an alligator.
Goes through quite thick branches.

Thank you both. I probably do mean a chainsaw - a small one! _ But DH is dead against getting one as he thinks they are lethal, so I wanted to find something a bit easier to handle.

This is how ours works. The teeth grip then use the buttons in the handles (both at the same time) to start the saw.

Dh uses it mainly as I find it can get heavy after a while, I use it myself on low things.
