A classic chainsaw is big, gas-powered, and capable of taking down a sequoia, or at least a stately oak, should the need arise. Most people have much less serious arboreal maintenance needs, and consequently they can get by with a much lighter duty chainsaw, a shorter saw that runs on batteries. Right now, Walmart has a 2-amp cordless mini chainsaw on sale with an impressive 61% discount.

The Tanbaby 6-Inch Cordless Mini Chainsaw is just $30 right now. Before this deal went live, it would’ve cost you $76. Walmart has it listed as a clearance item, a clue to why this discount is so steep and why this might be your last chance to score this easy-to-wield yard work tool.

Get it!

This chainsaw has a 6-inch bar and weighs just 2.4 pounds with a battery installed, small and light enough for one-handed operation. The motor can move the self-lubricating chain as fast as 3 meters per second, while operating at just 95 dB or about as loud as a hair dryer. It comes with a charger, two lithium-ion batteries with 20 to 30 minutes of runtime each, and a slew of accessories including safety googles, gloves, screwdriver, wrench, case, and an extra chain. 

As impressive as those stats are, the real proof of this mini chainsaw’s quality is in the generally very positive reviews from customers who’ve actually used it. One wrote that they loved “the convenience of battery power and the small size” of this saw. “With its sharp chain, I can cut through just about anything!” they added.

Another customer called it a “perfect” compact chainsaw that “fits in small spaces and cuts like butter.” They also added that it’s great for cutting shrubs and small branches. 

The Tanbaby 6-Inch Cordless Mini Chainsaw is a well-reviewed, convenient chainsaw that’s just $30 right now and might not be around much longer. If you’ve got unruly bushes or overly long tree branches, snag one ASAP and get cutting.
