Which Homeowner grade Battery Chainsaw is the best value? Stihl vs Worx...YOU DECIDE!

What happens here

After preparing both chainsaws, the presenter puts on his safety helmet with face shield and earmuffs. He cuts a small poplar tree, approximately 5 inches in diameter, in half with the Worx chainsaw and the other half with the Stihl chainsaw. This initial cut serves as a quick comparison of their basic cutting ability and power. The presenter aims to drop the tree cleanly but it falls onto the road, requiring cleanup.

Goal: Compare initial cutting power on a small tree

Tools and materials

  • Stihl MSA 140 C Chainsaw Stihl — Cutting the second half of the tree
  • Worx WG384 Chainsaw Worx — Cutting the first half of the tree
