DeWalt DCCS677Y1 60V Chainsaw Kit vs DEWALT FLEXVOLT 60V MAX 16 In. Chainsaw

The DCCS677Y1 is the bigger, more capable saw: a 20 in. bar, a 4.0 Ah FLEXVOLT battery, charger and case in the box, and power DeWalt rates against a 50.2 cc gas saw. The 16 in. tool-only saw is lighter and simpler, runs on the same FLEXVOLT platform, and suits limbing and light demolition. Owners rate the 16 in. saw higher (4.0 vs 3.7), though both have small sample sizes. Buy the kit if you want one saw for felling and firewood; buy the 16 in. only if you already own FLEXVOLT batteries and cut smaller wood.

  • Choose the DCCS677Y1 if you want a complete 20 in. saw with battery, charger and case, and you cut large logs or fell trees.
  • Choose the 16 in. FLEXVOLT if you already own 60V batteries, want a lighter saw for limbs and beams, and do not need a 20 in. bar.

What reviewers say

DeWalt DCCS677Y1 60V Chainsaw Kit

  • 3.7 / 518 ratings

Ratings are middling at 3.7 out of 5 from 18 buyers, so reception is mixed. Praise centers on cutting power and the complete kit; criticism tends to focus on weight and battery runtime.

What people mention
  • Cutting powerPraisedBuyers say it cuts through thick logs with power close to a gas saw.
  • WeightCriticisedOwners find it heavy at 12.6 lbs, especially during long overhead or bucking cuts.
  • Battery runtimeMixedThe 4.0Ah pack delivers solid cuts but runs down quickly in sustained use.
  • OilingPraisedAutomatic chain oiling keeps it running without manual oiling stops.

DEWALT FLEXVOLT 60V MAX 16 In. Chainsaw

  • 4 / 560 ratings

Rated 4 out of 5 from 60 ratings. Owners generally praise the cutting power and the convenience of a battery saw that behaves like a small gas saw. Complaints center on weight, oiling and tensioning, and the cost of 60V batteries.

What people mention
  • Cutting powerPraisedOwners say it cuts limbs and beams quickly and does not bog down like smaller battery saws.
  • WeightCriticisedReviewers call it heavy for overhead work and long sessions, especially with a large pack.
  • Battery platformPraisedBuyers who already own FLEXVOLT tools like reusing the same 20V/60V batteries.
  • Chain oilingCriticised

Questions and answers

Which is better for felling trees?
The DCCS677Y1. Its 20 in. bar and 18 in. cutting capacity take larger trunks, and DeWalt rates its power against a 50.2 cc gas saw.
Which lasts longer per charge?
The kit ships with a 4.0 Ah FLEXVOLT battery; the 16 in. saw is tool only, so runtime depends on the battery you own. DeWalt claims up to 70 cuts per charge on 6x6 pine for the 16 in. saw.
Is the 20 in. kit worth stepping up to?
Yes if you need a complete saw for big wood. It includes battery, charger and case. The 16 in. saw only makes sense if you already own FLEXVOLT batteries.
Which is easier to handle?
The 16 in. saw. The kit weighs 12.6 lbs. with its battery, which wears on you during overhead or one-handed work.
Do they share batteries?
Yes. Both run on DeWalt FLEXVOLT 60V batteries, so one battery works in either saw.
Which do owners rate higher?
The 16 in. saw, at 4 out of 5 from 60 ratings versus 3.7 out of 5 from 18 for the kit. Both samples are small.
