As part of its Deals of the Day, Best Buy is offering the Greenworks 80V 18-inch Cordless Electric Chainsaw for $299.99 shipped. Normally going for $400, this combination of tool and battery saw only a few discounts over 2023, never falling below $300 during Black Friday and Christmas sales. It wasn’t until March that we saw any further discount, with a similar one-day sale dropping costs to the $280 low. Today’s deal is a slightly lesser 25% markdown that saves you $100 and returns it to the second-lowest price we have tracked.
Stocked with an 18-inch bar and chain, powered by the included 4.0Ah battery, this chainsaw will give you up to 270 cuts on 4×4 lumber on a single charge (which will take less time thanks to the rapid-charger). Its brushless motor boasts “twice the torque of its brushed counterparts,” while its automatic oiler keeps the chain evenly lubricated for continuous productivity. And you won’t have to ever deal with starter ropes again, as the chainsaw has been given a simple and easy push button start. Also includes a scabbard.
You should also check out our past coverage of the Greenworks 60V 42-inch Cordless Electric CrossoverZ Zero Turn Riding Mower with four 8.0Ah Batteries that is currently sitting at $3,797. This is the company’s most ambitious and comprehensive mowing solution to date, and handles yards up to 1.5 acres in size with its included batteries. In the same post, you’ll also find a slightly cheaper mower, as well, albeit without the zero-turn maneuverability – but still an affordable option worth considering.
