#6. Greenworks Pro – Surprisingly Powerful for Electric

Regret Rating: ★★★★☆

Greenworks Pro doesn’t look like much… until you pull the trigger. Then it chews through logs with unexpected force. This 80V electric saw is giving gas-powered tools a real run for their money.
If you want power and low maintenance, Greenworks Pro hits the sweet spot. It’s quieter than gas, starts instantly, and still packs a serious punch. Great for suburban homeowners with big yards—and big projects.

Why users love it:

  • Powerful enough for medium-to-heavy work
  • Battery lasts longer than most
  • Zero fumes, zero mess

Minor tradeoffs:

  • Not cheap
  • A bit bulky compared to other battery-powered models
