Why We Love This Deal
If you’re an avid arborist (or Men’s Journal reader), you’ll know that now is the time to cut extra tree foliage for the best results. That means if you don’t already have a ready-to-go chainsaw, now’s the time to get one. Thankfully, Walmart has a fantastic cordless chainsaw from Greenworks with all of the necessary batteries to get it running included, and it’s nearly $100 off its regular price.
The Greenworks 48V 16-Inch Brushless Chainsaw is now just $182 after a 35% discount, and it ships free, so there are no hidden charges after you add it to your cart. Typically, we see that Greenworks chainsaws at 16 inches or longer cost over $200 or even $300 when they include the batteries and charger, as this kit does. Needless to say, this is an immensely good buy right now.

What Shoppers Should Know

- Weight: 15 pounds

If there’s anything to know about this chainsaw that you cannot tell from looking directly at it, it’s that it can cut at up to 3,940 FPM. That stands for “Feet Per Minute,” and compared to our human arms with a hand saw, it’s faster. Put another way, that’s approximately 45 miles per hour of chain slinging around a blade. It’ll put a dent in your yardwork woes in no time flat.
But most important are the things that you can’t see in the impressive chainsaw. It has a brushless motor, reducing motor wear over time while creating a more efficient run time. Plus, it has nice safety features like a chain brake.

What Shoppers Are Saying
One reviewer took the reader on a journey, saying the saw wasn’t for a pro or a logger, but definitely for just about anyone else. “Imagine a world where you no longer have to yank your guts out trying to get a saw started," they said. "Imagine not having to mix fuel and oil…Imagine not having to wear hearing protection to keep your ears functional. Stop imagining and buy this saw!”
Another shopper assured that it “cut like butter” and that the “batteries last quite long.”
The Greenworks 48V 16-Inch Brushless Chainsaw is almost $100 off while this deal persists, but that might not be for much longer.
