I have the Dewalt saw, and I disagree.  It has worked great for me.  but
there are actually at least 4 different models in the Dewalt line up.  I
have the "OG" 20V saw with the 16" bar from when they first came out, the
20V 8" pole saw" and the 60V 20" saw that came out about a year ago.  All
work great for me.  The 60V saw has completely replaced my gas powered 20"
Stihl.
