    this will probably do but ALDI and Lidl's have had electric chainsaws recently and if you were near either it would be worth checking they weren't still about. I'm sure they were more like £30 ish but the Focus one above is probably very similar.

    When it comes to chainsaws, to get value for money, buy a petrol one as they last far longer and really, when it comes to climbing a tree etc who wants a lead trailing around their feet..
    Argos do one for £99......
    What if the Hokey Pokey really is what it's all about !!!
  • If you only want it to cut down some trees, have you thought about hiring one.

    If you do intend to buy one, for safetys sake it's worth buying some protective gear too.
