Chainsaw Buying Guide
Are you in search of a new battery-powered chainsaw? Let's take a closer look at some essential factors before the purchase and figure out how to find the perfect chainsaw for your needs, in the right size.
… What Bar Length Do I Need?
The Bar length is one of the most important factors when purchasing a chainsaw. Here at Greenworks, our bar lengths vary from 10 cm to 40 cm – we truly have a chainsaw for every task.
Shorter chainsaws give you less cutting capacity, while longer chainsaws provide a larger available cutting capacity in one pass. It’s important to note that larger chainsaws with longer bar lengths can also be more difficult to handle – so it’s a good idea to always match your task to your chainsaw size.
Landscapers follow the rule of inches, meaning your residential chainsaw bar length should be 5 cm longer than the active cutting area. For example, if you’re cutting a 25 cm log in one pass, you'll need a chainsaw with a 30 cm bar length. Of course, you can cut large branches/logs with a smaller chainsaw – just be prepared that it will take multiple passes.
30 cm - 36 cm | Trimming, pruning, limbing, felling small trees
40 cm - 46 cm | Felling medium trees, firewood cutting
Factors to Consider Before You Buy
In addition to the all-important bar length decision, here are a few other factors to consider before buying a new chainsaw:
Usage: How often will you use your chainsaw? Based on the frequency and purpose of use, you can determine which chainsaw size best suits your needs.
Project size: How big are the branches and limbs that you’ll be cutting down? Matching chainsaw size to project size helps to set you up for success.
Comfort level: How familiar are you with chainsaws? A smaller chainsaw provides beginners with maximum control and comfort. Experienced users looking to upgrade their equipment will feel right at home with a longer bar length.
Platform: Are you already on a voltage series? Here at Greenworks, we offer a variety of chainsaw voltage options, including 24V, 40V and 60V .

Greenworks battery-powered chainsaws come standard with some pretty handy benefits. Some of our favorite features include:
Easy start - every time: No more fighting the pull cord to start up a gas chainsaw. With Greenworks, our push-button start makes the cord hassle a thing of the past.
Auto-oiler mechanism: No more messing with oil – our auto-oiler mechanism keeps the chain lubricated for maximum performance.
Side-mounted chain tension: Gives you easy access for bar and chain maintenance.
Lightweight: Our ergonomic design is easy to use and at least 20% lighter than comparable gas models – giving you more control and less fatigue.
Less vibration: In addition to being more comfortable, less vibration in Greenworks chainsaws mean you can work for longer with more accuracy.
Quiet: Say goodbye to the ear-splitting buzz of gas chainsaws. Electric chainsaws are quieter to use because electric motors produce less noise than gas motors, making for more content eardrums (and neighbors!).
