It Worx, but it’s not easy to use.,
I bought the JawSaw after I saw the infomercial because I had some trees at our restaurant and in our yard that I wanted to trim. I already have a chain saw, but I was attracted to the extension pole as a means of reaching branches that I couldn’t reach with my current chain saw. I figured the $149 purchase price was a reasonable investment because it was less than the tree trimmer would charge me.
The JawSaw seems to be well-constructed and is able to cut through branches that are up to 4 inches thick. Unlike a standard chain saw which has an exposed blade, the JawSaw protects the user from potential harm by recessing the saw inside the jaws. The cutting ability is limited to a 4-inch cut because of the fixed size of the jaw opening. I also used the JawSaw to cut through tree roots that were exposed at ground level. However, the JawSaw is surprisingly heavy, despite the fact that it is electric and has no gas tank. This is especially true if the extension pole is used. I work out with weights regularly, yet my shoulders were very sore for 2 days after using the JawSaw to trim just 2 large trees. In fact, I elected to wait until the following weekend to trim the other trees.
Another shortcoming in the design is the need to pull on the shaft and push on the handle to make the saw move/slice through the opening of the jaw opening. You don’t really see this in the infomercial. This required action is difficult and reduces the actual reach (with or without the extension pole) because one hand needs to be on the shaft grip, which cuts down substantially on the overall reach. Lastly, because of the location of the motor and jaw structure, it is difficult and cumbersome to make neat cuts in tight spaces within the tree.
Overall, I would recommend the product but only with the understanding of its design shortcomings.

|Easy, Fast, and Safe without a kick,
I complained about the order taking too long to send, and they sent the next day. This thing is amazing. It has clawlike extensions that you place around the branch, which insures your safety. Push a button, and the chain saw lowers and does the work with absolutely no effort. I have no idea how it will work when the blades get some use, but for now, it is truly unbelievable. I have had about 35 to 40 trees for 0ver 40 years. This is the easiest trimming I have ever been able to do. It has its limits. 4″ due to the claws. Also, can not get close up and precise. No close cuts and can’t fit between close brances. But what it does do, it does beautifuly. I am in awe. No kick what so-ever. The only kick I found, was it is a enjoyable kick of using it. I actually had fun pruning. Cutting up the falling branches was a cinch.

|Extremely Disappointed!,
The Worx JawSaw looked great. Its ads and video presented a chain saw limbing tool with a well protected chain saw capable of cutting with minimal effort. Reality was far different.
While the chain protection was good, the statement that, “Push a button, and the chain saw lowers and does the work with absolutely no effort.” was as far from the truth as you can get. The cutting action is far more involved–1st you have to push in and hold the safety interlock with your thumb, 2nd you have to squeeze and hold the power-on bar–this engages the chain saw. Squeezing the bar only starts the chain saw rotating IT DOES NOT LOWER THE BLADE! To lower the blade, you have to shove–and I mean SHOVE!!!, the orange handle forward. The effort to shove in the handle is substantial! This is a HUGE difference from doing, “. . . the work with absolutely no effort.”
From the video and the one review we found we thought all we had to do was squeeze the power-on bar and the chain saw started and a secondary electric motor lowered the blade. The part about having to shove in the handle to lower the blade was never noted. We are extremely disappointed and will be sending it back.
