Our take on the 25.4cc Gas Chainsaw 12 Inch Bar

This is a small gas chainsaw with a 25.4cc two-stroke engine, a 12-inch bar and about 1.2 horsepower. It is built for light yard work: limbing, cutting firewood to size and clearing brush where a cordless saw would run out of charge. Against battery saws it never needs a recharge, but it is heavier, louder and needs fuel mixing, chain oil and regular tuning. Against bigger gas saws it is easier to start and control for homeowners, though it stalls under long cuts in hard wood.

What reviewers say

Owners of small gas saws in this class describe them as handy for light limbing and brush but underpowered for serious firewood cutting. Starting and carburetor tuning come up often, and many say a sharp chain matters more than the engine size.

What people mention
  • PowerMixedFine for limbs and small logs, but it bogs down in hard wood and long cuts.
  • StartingCriticisedCold starts can take many pulls, and the choke and primer routine has to be followed exactly.
  • WeightPraisedLight and easy to handle overhead and in tight spots compared with larger gas saws.
  • MaintenanceCriticisedOwners mention mixing fuel, adding bar oil, tensioning the chain and tuning the carburetor.
  • NoiseCriticisedLoud and smoky, so ear and eye protection are needed.

Questions and answers

Is a 25cc saw enough for cutting firewood?
For limbs and logs up to about 8 inches it is fine. Larger hardwood logs will slow it down, and a 40cc or bigger saw is a better fit for regular firewood cutting.
What fuel does it use?
A two-stroke engine needs gasoline mixed with two-stroke oil, usually at 40:1 or 50:1 as the manual states. It also needs bar and chain oil in a separate tank.
How does it compare with a battery chainsaw?
It runs as long as you have fuel and cuts with more torque in small wood, but it is heavier, louder and needs fuel mixing and tuning. A battery saw is cleaner and quieter for light yard work.
What bar and chain does it take?
It uses a 12-inch bar with a matching chain pitch and gauge, commonly 3/8-inch low profile. Check the manual before buying a replacement chain.
Is it safe for a first-time chainsaw user?
It has basic safety features such as a chain brake and hand guard, but gas saws demand care with kickback, fuel and starting. Read the manual and wear chaps, eye and ear protection.
Where is the 25.4cc Gas Chainsaw 12 Inch Bar cheapest?
At Target, for $149.99, as of our latest check.
