VortexLP –
AWESOME TOOL MUST HAVE!! Trimmer head was simple screw on. The chain saw attachment took some time to set up but not difficult. I did install the chain backwards first but was really easy to flip. The battery doesn’t last very long, but was enough to do alot of cuts. I was able to cut the top of a 30ft crape myrtle tree alot faster than if i used a ladder and a chain saw. Love the long reach. You do have to press the power button often because it turns off after like 10 seconds. Cuts pretty fast but does cut off if jammed which i think is a good safety feature. I would recommend people to watch safety videos before cutting largger branches for safety. I like that its very easy to assemble for use and to switch attachments.
