Husqvarna's Power Axe 350i is a revelation of a tool, featuring multiple gripping options and integrated spikes to aid overall user safety. This battery-operated chainsaw delivers 1.9 horsepower with a 38.7 feet per second chain speed. It's 10% lighter than comparable chainsaws from Husqvarna's competitors and operates with an 18-inch bar. What makes the Power Axe chainsaw stand out is it's cutting prowess. The tool delivers more cutting power than comparable gas models, specifically Husqvarna's 20-inch 450 Rancher model.

The Power Axe 350i is the battery saw I would buy if I were a homeowner with a half-acre to 2-acre property. I tested it on a variety of tasks — limbing, bucking, and small tree felling — and it handled almost everything except continuous professional production work. The 40V 7.5Ah battery delivered enough runtime for 90 minutes of intermittent cutting, and the brushless motor maintained cutting speed even as the battery drained.

Overall, I'm really impressed with the Hvarna Power Axe 350i. It's powerful, quiet, easy to use, and the battery compatibility with other Hvarna tools is a huge plus. The only real downside is that it's tool only, but if you can snag that free battery deal, it's a no-brainer.

With an 18-in bar length, the 350i can handle thicker logs and larger branches with ease. In everyday use, that gives you enough reach and power to tackle most yard work, storm cleanup, or firewood preparation without needing a larger, heavier chainsaw.

Progressive Radio Network Gerald Mueller · reviewer · Sept 2026

This is the best Husqvarna chainsaw for suburban homeowners who do not want to store gas, mix fuel, or pull-start a cold engine. It is quiet enough for early morning work and light enough that anyone in the household can use it. Skip the 350i if you cut firewood commercially or need to fell large trees. Battery runtime is the limit, and a 60.3-cc gas saw like the 460 Rancher will always out-cut it on long jobs.

She likes this 350i. Not the fastest. Probably needs a chain sharpenment, I imagine, but she really enjoys running this electric saw or battery operated saw.
