I was about to buy a Bosch AKE 40-19S chainsaw from SFix when I saw that
Homebase have a cheaper Bosch AKE 40S. The obvious differences are a
slightly higher motor power and chain speed on the -19 but I'm tempted
to go for the cheaper one if that's all. Has anyone here any experience
of either?
The higher priced one has toolless assembly & tensioning, the
cheaper is more traditional nuts & spanners.
I've had both and I wouldn't pay 50 quid odd more for it :-)
I'd be surprised if the extra 200w would make a lot of difference
in normal usage for an electric chainsaw.
It looks like the design has changed because they both now have
tool-less assembly and tensioning. I went for the cheaper one - time
will tell.
Ah yes, looking now at the Homebase website it does indeed look
like a toolless one :-)
(I goggled for it before and just looked at the pics goggle found)
