Aldi Junk Once more – Simply put, used it once and that was it. Spews oil and smokes mdaly. Covid meant warranty period missed by a few weeks. Truly, without over stating it, thoroughly junk. Show details
A smoother saw sound with constant power – Excess barlube output and episodic start problems. When in good mood, very nice to use. Cuts to full bar length and holds tension well. Cannot find crank oil fill/ empty plug. Show details
good prototype. ... thats all – I had to try a 4 stroke chainsaw. Not keen that engine oil serves as chain bar oil too. When idlying and also cutting, it sends out a spray of oil wherever you point the saw. Very messy. Also leaks when not in use. Relatively easy to start and I have cut small ; up to 120cm ; and it works for a few hours before it overheats and we both have a… Read more
rest. Powerful, and could handle a larger chain.Needs to be run monthly , otherwise the fuel gums up and starting is difficult and revs are hard to build. The idea is great , just needs some decent seals and fine tuning.
unreliable – Used once on small bush. Worked for 20 minutes then nothing. Chain won’t turn. Don’t bother with this one. Leaks fuel and oil Really not buying anymore electrical stuff from ALDI. Too unreliable Finally learned my lesson Show details
About time an affordable 4 stroke chainsaw – This saw is good on fuel. Runs nice and smooth. Ok it's not a 24" bar stihl or husky, but for what it is; it is a good saw. Ingenious how the engine oil is the bar oil. Only bad point, the file that comes with it, is soft and wears out after only 6 or 7 sharpens. That being said, new files are only about $7 at any mower/chainsaw store. No harder to start than any other saw. I have been cutting Aussie natives with it Show details
great chain saw works like a treat – used for cutting fire wood and large tree branches on my farm in the country new i have 4 saw all two stroke but the four stroke is just great well done . Show details
Faulty product – Safety bar won't disengage. Can't cut anything because the chainsaw doesn't work. Waste of money don't bother buying one. No video on the website either. Very unhappy with this product.
Aldi 4 stroke chainsaw – Simply great very light , as for fuel Ron 91 octane is fine . Starts first time every time and is very grunty without the noise and smoke . One oil tank is a very practical for crank and bar . The only thing I would improve would be using a larger bar and increasing the chain size , otherwise it was money well sent . Show details
Tough little saw 47.1 CC Chainsaw $199 – 47.1 CC 4-stroke chainsaw from Aldi Toowoomba for $199. I think Gardenline finally listened. This saw kicks butt. It's a 4-stroke which is completely different fom other chainsaws I've used in the past. I know chainsaws and this thing blows my mind. Sounds like a generator when idles and sounds like a trailbike revving. Love the sound.… Read more
Haven't had much negativity to
say except, get a better spark plug as the cheap chinese sparkplug causes the saw to spit after that, it's a
47.1 CC monster. Make sure yall use 98 octane fuel and 10w 30 pure oil for the best performance.
Starts everytime now. Don't drop start it, won't help you much.
