## Description

If you are looking for a high-power, low-noise electric chainsaw for trimming branches and limbs in your yard, the Oregon CS1500 corded chainsaw is the right choice. Save yourself time and hassle, since the CS1500 starts instantly and doesn’t require any gas-oil mixing. Tool-less tensioning allows you to tension the chain by just tightening the ring on the side cover – no special tools required. Made by the world's leading saw chain manufacturer, this chainsaw features an 18" chain that you can sharpen on the saw in 3 seconds with the pull of a lever. The automatic oiler distributes oil on the bar and chain while on the saw, keeping your chainsaw lubricated and preventing premature wear.

Review: As good as expected and they stand behind their product - I bought two of these, about 5 years ago. One for my neighbor whose corded saw from another manufacturer died, and one for myself because the price was right and I wanted a new saw. Okay, it is corded. You knew that when you bought it. Here's the deal, though. I used this saw moderately frequently for fairly heavy sawing tasks for 5 years before it quit on me. Yes. It quit on me. I was sawing through 20" thick ash, and had been for some time, when the brushes finally burned up. I thought it was done and went out and bought myself a cordless saw, which I dearly love, but I was just cleaning up my shop and saw this poor fella sitting there waiting for me to decide what to do with it. I decided to open up the motor and see whether I could save it. First, it is easy to open the motor. Four screws and you are in. Second, it is easy to pull the brushes, two screws and twist two little metal bars away and you have them out. Then pull them off the spade connectors and you are free to go. Okay, but no one makes brushes for a cheap corded chainsaw, right? Wrong! $14 later, I have new brushes made for this specific saw ordered from desertcart and provided by Oregon themselves. In this age of disposable junk designed to fail and increase profits, that is called standing behind your product. I give Oregon enormous credit for that. As to all the other stuff, it cuts well with a sharp chain (like any other decent saw), it is reasonably easy to maneuver, at least as good as any other corded saw. It is quieter than gas, a bit louder than cordless electric -- brushless motors are quiet, but they are also expensive. It works quite well, and has put up with more abuse than it was probably designed for. The oiler works as well as any other oiler I have seen. It doesn't leak and it keeps the chain lubricated. The quick sharpening feature works (though it will wear out your chain faster than manual sharpening) and is really convenient when you don't want to stop and sharpen you chain. The chains and bars are reasonably cheap, so wearing out a chain is not a huge issue. If you are a serious forester, get a serious saw. Stihl makes some great ones, but you already know that, and if you are reading this review, I am laughing at you. If you want convenience and are willing to pay for it, get a cordless electric. There are several good ones out there, and they work really well, even on heavy work. Not naming brands because that is unfair. If you want a cheap saw that you can fix when it wears out and that will serve you around the yard trimming trees and cutting up small firewood just fine, probably for many years if you don't abuse it like I did, this is the saw for you. I can't speak for other brands, but Oregon clearly stands behind their product and has made a good one in this saw. Other people make better saws, but not for this price. Most other people won't sell you replacement parts for anything this inexpensive.
Review: So happy I got this saw! - I really like this chainsaw. I cut down three trees (1 about 15” diameter & 2 about 8” diameter, all three hardwoods) and then dealt with branches & cutting the trunks into smaller pieces. The saw went through them like butter. It was easy to set up the chain after checking out the manual (it’s a bit different from a gas chainsaw setup). I haven’t used the sharpening feature so far, which seem like a good sign. On the other hand, the chain did get a bit longer and had to be re-adjusted on the sprocket (not difficult). Also, the chain did come off the sprocket when I was cutting at an angle. I’m not sure if that was my fault - I may have tilted the bar while cutting. I paid attention to this afterwards and it didn’t happen again. Suggest being super careful with the chain, since it’s pointy as well as sharp. I’m still a bit apprehensive about having to deal with an electric cable, but since I have to be careful about the tree, cutting direction and other safety items, this just adds one more point. On the other hand, having an uninterrupted power supply lets me cut as long as I need to. The housing of the saw is plastic, so my concern is more with chewing up the extension cord than getting electrocuted (although I suppose in a freak manner it might be possible to somehow get in contact with a cut cable that somehow didn’t short the breaker). Anyway, after years of using a small McC gas saw, I’m happy I went with this one and am not looking back to all the issues with fouling spark plugs, smelly 2-stroke fumes, etc. I suppose if I was going up a tree to do some pruning or piece cutting a gas saw might be better, but I don’t like using chain saws in those situations anyway. For that kind of work I prefer my battery reciprocating saw with a pruning/demo blade unless I’m working on a trunk that’s more than ~10” thick. I really like the way the chain & motor stop immediately when you release the trigger. The saw is not super quiet, but definitely a lot less noisy than a gas saw. As others have mentioned, the shipping box is a bit weird (big box for housing and then a smaller one for the bar), but my saw didn’t have any damage when it arrived. I figured if there’d be an issue, desertcart would make an easy replacement. Would buy this again in a heartbeat.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How well does the self-sharpening system actually work?**
A: unless youve seen and understand the system used on this saw then answering it with "it dont work" isnt correct. its a totaly different chain that is made to work with this system by cutting the tops of the teeth back to flat. which is sharp. a standard chain will destroy the stone. you still have to manually file the rakers but when done right you can use the system to do 1-3 sharpens without filing the rakers. if you dont file the rakers it will still work but not as well as it should.

**Q: Eventually the chain and the sharpener will wear out and both need to be replace.  What is the replacements parts number and where to get it?**
A: The PowerSharp chain and sharpening stone are sold and replaced together as a set.  They are available here on Amazon, or from any Oregon dealer.  The Oregon part number, in the owner's manual, is 571037.  Note that this saw can also be used with conventional 3/8 inch, low profile, .050 gauge chain (S62), available at most hardware stores or home centers, although, this chain will have to be conventionally sharpened.

**Q: Can this cut an 8-inch diameter dry/seasoned oak log?**
A: We used it to cut up a dead oak with a 15in. diameter.

**Q: dose it have a metal drive gear thanks**
A: The gear on the motor shaft is steel, the large reduction gear this mates with is plastic. I've taken my first one apart as I burned the motor up. It was my fault as I filed the rakers down, and this enabled the chain to grab too deep and overload the motor. The motor will fail long before any other part. Also I'm cutting Oak trees down, and cutting them into small enough pieces I can carry. Make sure you have a true 12gauge extension cord for this, as it's required.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good saw, except for the sharpening feature
*by K***X on November 15, 2024*

Update: May 2025 I had been using this chainsaw for about a year without incident after switching to ordinary chains and sharpening the chains by hand (without using the Powersharp feature), as I wrote in my original review. A couple of weeks ago, however, the chain grabbed the wood and came off the bar, somewhat violently, perhaps because I was applying too much pressure. No big deal, chains come off saws. I put the chain back on, though, and it came off immediately. After two or three more repetitions, I examined the bar and sprocket, and found that the e-clip (also called an e-ring) holding the sprocket in place was gone. Looked around the ground there but couldn't find it (it's a very small part), and the sprocket+e-clip replacement kit seemed to be out of stock everywhere. So I called Oregon and explained things, and they said they'd send me a new e-clip gratis. I didn't want to wait a week for it though, so I went to a local hardware store and bought e-clips in a few sizes. The first one I tried, 5/16", fit perfectly, and the saw runs fine now. Bumped my rating up to 5/5 on the strength of the excellent customer service (although they didn't expedite shipment). Original review, fall 2024: I have been using this chainsaw for six months or so. I like it a lot, and have not had most of the problems that others here have described. The chain jumped off the saw once, but I think I was not keeping the chain sufficiently taut. I am in the habit of checking the chain tightness every 10 minutes or so, and have not noticed rapid slackening etc. However. While the "Powersharp" automatic sharpening feature seemed very nice the first few times I tried it, I found that after maybe four to six weeks and maybe a dozen sharpenings, it was no longer really cutting. Pulling the lever to sharpen the chain had no effect. Bought a new chain+stone combo, tried using it; essentially the same result. After a while the sharpening feature doesn't work. My understanding is that the depth gauge no longer works because the teeth are reduced in height as they are sharpened. As such, these chains are designed to be disposable, so to speak. They work for awhile, are fine for a few months of continuous use, and then must be replaced. That at least has been my experience. I replaced the second chain with a standard 3/8" 0.05 gauge Sensilin chain, and have been using it for some time now. It's great. Cuts like a dream, and I have not yet had to sharpen it. But armed with files for the purpose and an excellent Youtube video (look up the "No Nonsense Guide to Chainsaw Sharpening" by FarmCraft101, the best video guide to chain sharpening I've seen--indeed, one of the best DIY videos I've ever seen on Youtube), I don't think I'll have trouble sharpening it by hand. In short: an excellent saw, except for the sharpening feature. Replace the chain with a standard chain, and I'd give it five stars; but that's not what you get when you buy it here.
