Chop to it! This powerful mini chainsaw just got an upgrade — and it's on sale for $38
The aftermath of a thunderstorm or snowstorm can leave you scrambling for ways to clean up your yard, and if you're left with tons of fallen branches that are just too large to cut by hand, you'll need some extra reinforcements to clear a path. While standard-size chainsaws do the trick, they're large, heavy, unwieldy, and a pain to store. With this in mind, a compact, lightweight and easy-to-maneuver mini chainsaw is just what you need to tackle your yard projects.
This one from trusted brand Saker has been a tried-and-true favorite among Amazon shoppers for some time, but it just got a 2025 upgrade that's well worth the investment. And, if you're an Amazon Prime member, you can grab one for just $38 — that's over 45% off!
Seeing as this product has only been around for a couple of months, there's not much price history to report. With that being said, this $38 price tag marks the lowest it's been since its launch, especially considering that it's a double-discount (Prime-exclusive pricing plus the on-page coupon). So, grab it while you can before the price reverts to $70.
This mini chainsaw is just the right handy piece you'll need for those outside projects that tend to come around without warning. It weighs just over 3 pounds and is fully wireless and battery-powered, so you can go as far as you need to use it without worrying about being yanked back by an annoying cord that's tethered to an outlet.
It has a versatile six-inch blade and a high-performance chain that makes cutting through wood almost as easy as slicing through butter. It also helps that the chain's super sharp and is even heat-resistant.
Manual saws are known for being heavy and laborious and they take a lot of skill to get an even cut. Since this mini chainsaw is motorized and lightweight, it gives you a much more precise and fast cut, straight through.
When it's time to replace the chain, there's no need to dig through your toolbox. The process is quick, tool-free and only takes three steps: Simply turn the scroll button counterclockwise (just one turn — no need to remove it), tighten the chain to your desired tension and lock the knob back in place. Done and dusted.
This mini chainsaw is already raking up tons of reviews with shoppers saying it's one of the handiest power tools they've ever used.
Pros 👍
"I have used this twice now and it cuts perfectly, is easy to use, and charges back up in less than an hour," one impressed shopper wrote.
"I purchased two of these little beasts," another reviewer raved. "These are excellent for cutting down small trees, branches, etc... This is an excellent saw, plus great battery life. It's actually a bargain."
One shopper even said it's made winter yard tidying much faster: "I finally pulled this little saw out of the box to deal with winter cleanup of falling limbs everywhere due to emerald ash borer in my area. It has been saving a lot of time as I can now cut up and burn (in my woodstove) small and medium limbs rather than having to drag them off to a brush pile. It's surprisingly powerful for such a small saw."
"I have a big 20-inch gas-powered chainsaw that can cut almost everything that I want to cut," another fan wrote. "However, it is big and heavy and I was looking for something lightweight and small for cutting small branches. I tried the Saker Mini Chainsaw and am happy with its performance. The tool comes with everything you would need including gloves and safety glasses."
Cons 👎
"This battery-operated mini chainsaw works great for trimming a few small branches or bushes around the house," wrote this reviewer. "It cuts fine through about 2- to 3-inch-thick branches, but struggles with anything thicker."
A final reviewer noted that while it comes with one, they wish it used "a more standard battery that would be easier to find and swap between tools."
Prefer something a little less high-tech?
