EGO POWER+ CS1815 18-inch 56V Chainsaw Kit with Battery and Charger

By Tom Calder

Our verdict · Researched
4.0 / 5

An 18-inch 56V saw sold as a kit with battery and charger. EGO states tool-free chain tensioning on its 18-inch family page; its page does not state a chain brake or weight, so check the label before buying.

How this review works

This is a Researched review: we haven't used this product. We check every specification against at least two independent sources, re-check the US price on a schedule where we can track it automatically, and say plainly who it isn't for. Commissions never change a rating.
