BLACK+DECKER 400W Scorpion Powered Handsaw with 3 Blades, KS890ECN-GB

A bit fiddly to get the blade in but after that, it works brilliantly. The blade is very sharpe, easy to handle and excellent a cutting through wood! Would highly recommend this. I did read reviews with some saying they had to return, try it for yourself before deciding.

Easy to manage, good quality, due to its small size easy to hold and control , easily saws through thick branches, bushes etc . Easy to Operate .

Lightweight portable saw great for small woodworking projects. Easy to use and functional. The blades are difficult to attach and detach in my opinion but still value for money item

Arrived earlier than expected great price and delivery husband really happy .thank you .

Excellent for keeping medium-sized tree in shape.

Quality saw

Love my electric handsaw. I'm not good at diy or gardening, but this tool helped me cut down my very overgrown hedge, and made the job so much easier. I couldn't have done it without it. It's light enough to be able to handle easily but powerful enough to be effective.

I had a devil of a job fitting the large blade (hidden in a cardboard sleeve; I had to shake the box to find it). The "locating pin" and the "release button" are very, very stiff. But I don't give up easily. I had to use lateral thinking to get the pin in the right position, inserting the screwdriver from the side and pressing the release button with all my strength. Once the blade was on, I again had to hold the release button down and use brute strength to move the blade through 90 degrees to get it into working position. Fortunately, I'll only be using the one blade, so it can just stay on, although of course the machine won't now go back in the box. I used it for cutting a fairly thick branch on a shrub; it took some effort but was still much faster than using a bow saw. You do need to use a sawing action with it. The cable is too short for gardening (just as well, as they don't provide a proper cable tie or anywhere to stow the cable) so I used an extension lead. When I couldn't turn the pin at first I phoned the Black & Decker support line. The person I spoke to didn't understand the problem (which seems to be a common one from other comments here) and just emailed me instructions which were the same as the ones that I already had. I've told them that the retaining pin and release button are too stiff. It's cheap and easy to use once you can get the blade fitted, but unless I was unlucky with a dodgy machine you'll need a lot of strength, patience and a bit of guile to get it on. Don't even think about changing blades regularly for different uses.

Excellent

Malheureusement prise américaine qu'il faut changer ...

El enchufe que incorpora no es el europeo sino americano pero tengo en casa adaptador así que no hubo problema. La herramienta es de muy fácil uso y ha superado incluso mis expectativas. He podido realizar todo el trabajo en el tiempo que me había marcado, sin ningún tipo de contratiempo.

A mio avviso ottimo attrezzo per tagli veloci e piu' precisi rispetto ad un segaccio a mano

Worst product I ever bought. Very badly designed, awkward to use, too much vibration, and doesn’t cut well at all. My ancient handsaw cuts faster and smoother. I’ve had B&D tools for years, and all were satisfactory until now.
