I bought it two years ago and being unfamiliar, I had never had contact with such tools before. If I knew, I would choose the Oregon blade and carburetor (+ economy + durability)... because the chain and blade turned out to be below average and what still concerns me in its use and I would like to have is a cap because the tensioner 1 and the blade 2 that presses internally with the two fixing screws has been distorted and is not so good. Also, the fact that you cannot see the oil level of the chain can deceive you, it may run out and you can cut without oil (a huge mistake). With a good chain now and good traction and good maintenance - cleaning, spark plug change, correct mixing oil (helps a lot in immediate start) etc., it has made me come out unscathed! I did not expect it to withstand so much cutting and maybe a bad first use. It has been used excessively for amateur use and it did not worry me even once, except for the blade and chain, a very good purchase after all! (With a well-known brand, we put them against each other by cutting the same trunk simultaneously and it was lacking in certain areas... if I had a different blade and a good chain, they would go together). Now, the durability over time remains to be proven..

Dear buyer, you will need an additional chain to be prepared for the extra output. It has some inconvenience at the beginning. It is not light, but of medium weight. In any case, I would look for better performance in another tool, as unfortunately it does not seem to resemble its name only in terms of quality. It is a pity that you do not have decent spare parts for your product, even if you increase the price. Only those who bought it will be inconvenienced, being in the fields and searching for spare parts at the last moment, losing their day and needing extra preparation. It's a shame

  This review is about the blade length: 45 cm

  So the information I provided was random just for the purpose of commenting! Let's start with the basics, here I work with two chainsaws, the Stihl 009 40cc 2hp (1984) and the Echo CS 302 33cc 1.9hp (1972), these machines are ancient compared to today's ones, of course, but even though they are old, I have taken care of them as if they were my children and they cut like new. Now, these €100 budget machines, guys, what do you expect them to do? They are CLEARLY for amateurs and not for cutting tons of wood. Now, another point I wanted to mention is CLEARLY what each person uses it for, guys, it is not possible to have never held a chainsaw in your hands and have an opinion, because most of the people here have held a chainsaw for the first time and don't even know the basics (proper fuel mixture with high-quality oil for €18 per liter and not the €2 one from the gas station, proper maintenance and care of a chainsaw, proper use and starting of the chainsaw, experience in carburetor adjustment because most people think they can play with carburetors in their hands when they have no idea how a chainsaw's carburetor works, proper storage after the end of the season, smooth operation of the chainsaw, meaning if it is suitable to cut for a long time continuously or not, the fact that every time you empty a fuel tank, the chain needs to be "refreshed" meaning it needs to be lightly sharpened especially if you cut dry or hard wood, the fact that they should have knowledge about the type of chain that the machine has from its box, whether it is suitable for semi-chisel or full chisel, the fact that they should have knowledge that at least 10 reasons can be responsible for the improper functioning of the chainsaw and not just one that we just discovered, the machine is not for starting and cutting a mountain of wood, the maintenance starts with the first fuel emptying). So if you have this knowledge in this specific profession, then you can evaluate a product correctly and thus prevent the product from being advertised due to lack of knowledge! I hope I helped as much as I could!

  This review is about the blade length: 50 cm

  My product arrived the day before yesterday. Well, for the past 2 days, it has been giving me a hard time. One starts with 2 pulls, the other I struggle to put it in front. One works flawlessly for about half an hour (then it shuts off), the other works for 2 minutes (and shuts off). I tried the recommended dosage of gasoline and oil, then I added less oil, then more. The same result. I should note that the oil is of high quality, not something cheap. The carburetor, besides producing bubbles, does not hold the fuel. I mean, after 10 minutes of cutting, it ran out of fuel. The idle is extremely unstable and the L H adjustments require a special tool as there are no screws. The On Off button is so close to the throttle that it is often accidentally pressed, causing it to shut off. Its cutting performance is decent, but as a tool, it is garbage - at least based on my experience. If there was a rating below one star, I would gladly give it.

  To me, the carburetor turned out to be faulty.
  It never worked properly no matter how much you adjusted it.
  However, I had another one with a broken blade, which had a Warbro carburetor and lasted 3 years without any maintenance, and it worked great as a pruning saw and a chainsaw for the fireplace wood.
  So, I simply took the carburetor from the old one and put it in this one, and the chainsaw works perfectly.
  If you go for something like this and want my opinion, make sure to get it with a Walbro carburetor.

  It lasted for 3 years, today I took it to a mechanic and he told me that it has lost its compression and obviously it's not worth repairing...
  It was a cheap machine...

  This review is about the blade length: 50 cm

  I wanted to buy a relatively cheap chainsaw for small use, as I don't cut systematically, so I wasn't looking at the classic well-known expensive brands. I had in mind some other models from Kraft, but I ended up choosing this one because of its price and features.
  My concern was that I couldn't find any reviews for this specific model, but I still bought it.
  When I opened it and went to place the blade and chain, I can't say I was impressed with the plastic parts, which seem more like nylon than hard plastic. Overall, everything on it looks cheap, the covers, the clasps, the filter.
  I would say its weight is average, around 5-6 kilograms, I don't give it much importance.
  Finally, I fueled it up and tried to start it, the air choke gives the feeling that it doesn't lock, I assumed it was broken and opened the cap, but it just needs a pull back despite giving that elastic feeling. I pulled the cord 1-2 times, it started immediately, it has enough compression and it might be difficult for someone who doesn't have enough strength, like an elderly person.
  I cut some small pieces of wood at a relaxed pace, it heated up and smelled a bit as expected, I didn't push it too hard, the chain was sharp and cut very well.
  Another day, I cut thicker pieces, I used it for a long time, so much that I expected it to shut off. However, it starts just as easily whether it's cold or hot.
  The engine is very powerful, which made a positive impression on me and I overcame my reservations about the plastic parts.
  The only thing left is to see its durability over time, I hope with gentle use I won't have any problems. After all, the total price of €106 that I bought it for is a small amount, considering that's how much the mechanic charges to replace the burnt electronics in my old "branded" one, not to mention the brand.
  So, in conclusion, the machine is more than good for its price.
  I will come back if there are any changes.

  The chain tensioner, which is rotary, keeps breaking constantly and after replacing it with a new one, the same thing happens again. Unfortunately, I would not recommend it.

  If you don't have mechanical knowledge, it's better to get something else... In the beginning, it works well, but after 30 deposits, the issues start... Either it will rev up on its own or it will have unstable idle... then it will stall and many other strange things will happen... It has a design flaw from the company... it doesn't fit the carburetor properly on the intake throat... They all have this problem... In the beginning, it works well because it barely fits, but with use, it starts to lose the perfect contact... many think that the carburetor is misadjusted, others think that air is passing through the fuel line, others think that the check valve is faulty, this results in an endless adventure... sending it back and having it sent back to you and then it does the same thing again and so on... you need a small modification to effectively seal the carburetor on the throat... It has a metal ring on the throat, this ring has incorrect dimensions from the company, you need to thin the ring on the side where the head is until the entire head of the ring is removed. Then place the ring back on the throat and design a flange to fit where the carburetor and throat meet... Pay attention to the design of the flange so that the pressure hole doesn't get blocked.
  Afterwards, it fits perfectly and it doesn't lose its position no matter how hard you use it. It will have excellent and stable performance and you will get rid of any issues with unstable operation... Tested modification on 3 problematic identical models.

  Quite good, only negative points are the weight and the chain and the blade that you throw too much for the cc of the engine it has a forty-five but it has a fifty-five and the saw is easy to use

  From the first moment, I put an Oregon chain and an Oregon blade on the saw, 2 fuel tanks for smooth operation, and the saw showed its power and comfort in cutting - pruning without getting stuck on anything.

  Also, after a few months, in consultation with the Kraft company that sent me the corresponding part, I installed a WALBRO carburetor because I didn't see any progress with the Chinese one it had, in terms of adjustment. Now it is much more comfortable with smoother operation and it doesn't struggle as before.

  By taking care of the lubricating oil (always a reputable brand) in a ratio of 2% to 2.5% and performing a typical cleaning after each use, checking the chain, blade, and the main saw, you will not have any problem for a long time.

  I bought it three days ago and I have used it two or three times to break it in. Unfortunately, it doesn't easily move forward and today I took it to the dealership where they seemed very polite and helpful. They told me that it needs some minor adjustment. I have yet to see the result and I will come back with a continuous evaluation..........
  After one day, they notified me and I went and picked it up. Truly a good dealership and good service. Now it easily moves forward and I have used it extensively at work. In the end, it is worth every penny until the last cent.
