FAQs
What is the best chainsaw for general garden use?
For most home gardeners, a cordless small chainsaw is ideal. These compact hand chain saws offer easy manoeuvrability, low noise, and enough cutting power for pruning, trimming, and cutting firewood. Our STIHL chainsaws for sale and Husqvarna garden chainsaws include many excellent options for domestic use.
What’s the difference between a top handle chainsaw and a back handle chainsaw?
A top handle chainsaw is designed for use by professionals working in trees, offering one-handed control in confined spaces. A back handle chainsaw is the go-to choice for ground-level cutting, providing stability and comfort for a wide range of jobs.
Are cordless chainsaws powerful enough for larger tasks?
Modern battery-powered models from brands like STIHL and EGO provide extremely impressive cutting performance. While they may not match the raw strength of a large petrol chain saw, they are more than capable of handling pruning, branch cutting, and some felling jobs.
How much does a chainsaw cost?
Chainsaw price varies depending on brand, size, and power. At Ron Smith, we sell everything from cheap chainsaws suitable for occasional use, right up to STIHL professional chainsaw and Husqvarna chainsaw models designed for heavy-duty work.
Do I need to wear protective gear when operating a chainsaw?
Yes—without exception. Whether you’re using a mini chainsaw or big chainsaw, back handle or one handed chainsaw, safety always comes first. That’s why we supply all the essential PPE including helmets, chainsaw trousers, gloves, and boots, to help you remain protected while working.
