AllyM I paid 120.00 on Amazon prime,..not sure of the weight but it didn't seem to be a problem to use.

Instead of that model I went with a Worx Jawsaw Chain Saw. One model with a/c cord and one cordless 20volt. While it's made mostly of plastic, it works very well. It's a chain saw with a claw that you put around the branch and push a handle forward while the chain cuts the wood. It has a self oiler and you can purchased a 6 foot extension wand.

This is truly safe chain saw.

I had a friend that was too lazy to use his Repo saw to cut down a tree. A few years later it grew sky high. So his wife purchased a chain saw on a poll. I explained that she could kill herself with it after it cuts thru a branch, gravity would make it come down and arc towards her body. So I asked the gardener for an estimate to cut down the tree....
