Saws range in price wildly. For a low-end corded electric chainsaw, you’re looking at $75 and up. Cordless saws start at $125 and run all the way up to $350 for a top-quality machine. Although that might come as a shock to some buyers, it’s worth bearing in mind that these tools are an investment. You should be looking to get many years out of the machine, so more often than not they do end up being worth it.
