Sunseeker MFT26I-PS-FA 10-inch Universal Pole Saw Attachment

For under $50, I really wasn't expecting much and not even sure it would be compatible with my trimmer. However, my expectations were exceeded and then some. Now, this is in no way a commercial unit but for occasional weekend work, this saw is awesome. For starters, it effortlessly attached to my older model Husqvarna trimmer and actually worked right out of the box. No instructions came with it, so I had to inspect and play around with it before cutting and learned a few things. First, this unit has a grease zerk and I recommend using it immediately. These units are apparently assembled and shipped without any internal grease. Second, the bar and chain oiler is a little temperamental to dial in. The adjustment pin, which is on the bottom of the unit, is spring loaded and doesn't hold it's position well. Make sure it's spitting some oil before cutting. Assembly of the bar and chain is easy and the tensioner seems to work well. I put this thing to work immediately and ran it for several hours without any issues. It cut through smaller branches (2" - 3" circumference) with no problem but I did not test it on anything bigger. Let's be honest though, this is an inexpensive Chinese tool and not something you can bear down on or abuse with heavy use. However, for light and occasional trimming, I am very satisfied. The bad reviews I have read for this unit apparently come from people with no experience running chainsaws in general. A lot of their complaints can be explained away as lack of general power tool knowledge. Time will tell how this unit holds up long term but I am very pleased with it's performance.

Working great for my Stihl Kombi engine, big save compare with Stihl attachment. I will just use one or two times a year, so I think it will be good enough.

This is entirely Chinese. There are NO Oregon parts. That being said, the quality of the tool is acceptable for the price I paid (I got it for $70CAD as a Amazon Warehouse Deal). The supplied chain is very sharp and cut well the first time I used it. Will update if I encounter any issues.

My wife gave me one for Christmas, at my request. I had the bar and chain on in less than 5 minutes (takes a 10mm wrench btw). I fastened it to my ryobi 2 cycle powerhead, filled the chain oil reservoir and headed out. Made light work of several dead saplings and logs I use for a barrier fence. Cuts great, but you have to throttle it up before you start cutting, then it's a breeze. This thing is half the price of the ryobi branded one, but essentially it's the same thing. I should have got it years ago. Outstanding value.

Wish it had a longer shaft than the 30-inch standard that everyone seems to make. In order to make it really functional as tree branch pruner, I had to purchase 2-separate tube extensions (also too short/no one seems to make them longer than 30"). Used a couple of times so far and works perfect!Now waiting to see if it would last without breaking prematurely, meeting expectations.
