Mikhail:
Perhaps I was so unlucky with the choice of the store, because before I bought the chainsaw Energomash BP-45, whose rating dictated 5 out of 5 points for it, seemed like a good decision. But literally after a week on aspen and alder with infrequent use, the chain that came with it failed. Approximately the chain is accompanied by a sprocket. The bulging cover shows that the chain limiter is not working properly. During use, noticed that there is a leak.
Vitaly:
Decided to leave my review, bought a chainsaw Energomash BP-45 a few months ago. No complaints so far. Mainly needed for cutting trees with a diameter of 30-50 cm.Gas leak noticed under the gas tank lid, so all parts are native. The chain stretched a little, but that’s normal.
Pros: For my money chainsaw Energomash has excellent features.

Review of chain saws Energy BP-45
owner reviews
Vladimir:
“For its cost is just a great model. I’ve been using it for more than half a year. Planted various trees with a diameter of 30 to 50 cm. Mostly it was a birch and one aspen. The chain has 72 teeth and withstood heavy loads with no problem, I didn’t even change the factory one. NAVALOTS less than the styling or Husqvarna, but those who need only one working tool, I definitely recommend “
Igor:
“I live in the countryside and in the winter I heat with gas, just not really expensive. So I decided to switch to wood, thanks to the abundance of trees in the area. It is not an option to saw wood manually for a long time, so I needed a budget chain saw. I have stopped on Energy BP-45 and while is happy as an elephant. Starts up with one half turn, steadily holds revolutions, productivity is big, consumption is small. There is some vibration when sawing because of the chain, but not critical. Advantages: powerful, low fuel consumption. Disadvantages: vibration. “
