Owner Feedback
Oleg, Yagotyn:
“The Patriot chainsaw is good, compared to reviews of other “Imperials” and personal experience, I really like it. Satisfied with the quality of work and the performance. My subjective opinion is that a chainsaw should not have power below 2000 W, then labor productivity increases significantly, besides everything goes much faster.
I have been using my Patriot chainsaw for over two years. The warranty period has expired, but so far there have been no failures, thank God.
Pros: I bought at a ridiculous price, I don’t even remember how much I paid, but I sure remember it wasn’t enough. I replaced the chain once during my work, now I’m still working on the old one, sharpened it once. I mainly use it in the garden and in the forest when I get firewood.
Disadvantages: on the Patriot you often have to tighten the chain, but this is the misfortune of all “patriots”.
