Powerful Four HP Motor Tackles Yard Maintenance and Cleanup
Powered by an efficient four HP electric engine, the Pro 400E is perfect for cutting firewood, pruning thick tree branches and bushes, cutting through fallen trees, and tackling other around-the-house chores. It also has a lightweight, portable design that minimizes strain on your body, even after extended use.Electric Power for No-Hassle Maintenance
Because the 400E is an electric saw, it doesn't require priming pumps or gas, which can cause messes and strong odors in your yard. And thanks to the automatic chain oiler and large sight window, it's easy to maintain the proper lubrication level while you work. The 400E also operates at a lower noise level than many other models, making yard work more pleasant for you and your neighbors. Innovative Features for Precision, Control, and Safety
The 400E includes an 18-inch steel guide bar for precision and control, a comfortable trigger for instant power, and important safety features like an inertia blade brake, anti-kickback bar tip, and a wrap-around handle to help protect users from injury. Double Insulated for Safety
For additional safety, the 400E is double insulated to help protect against electric shock. Double insulation construction consists of two separate layers of electrical insulation instead of grounding. As a result, if you use an extension cord with your saw, it can be plugged into any standard 120-volt electrical outlet. The 400E is backed by a one-year warranty.

 SadJul 30, 2010
It's hard to review this product since I have not been able to get it started.
I am thoroughly disgusted!Jul 26, 2010
I purchased this product two months ago and used it for the first time this weekend. I used for about an hour before it stopped running. The motor and everything came to a complete stop. I contacted Amazon and a rep told me "it was too old" to be returned to them. Too old??? I told him I had it for only 1-1/2 month. How is that too old? What he meant to say was that the 30 day Amazon return option had expired. Good grief! Anyway, I called a few Poulan service providers that were listed on Poulan's website and most of them stated they do not work on ELECTRIC chainsaws. Now I am beginning to think that I am stuck with this lemon. However I finally found one Poulan service provider who was willing to take a look at it to determine if it could be repaired under the current one year warranty. Taking it to them this weekend. If this doesn't work then the next option is to return it to the manufacturer, who by the way has several different numbers which nobody answers.
The lesson learned here? The importance of paying attention to all customer product reviews. The first one that I read before purchasing this chain stated the same problem that I am now experiencing. Wow! Ain't that bit**.
Worked well for a while....then died.Jul 26, 2010
Bought this late 2008.....used it about 4 times. Nothing heavy...yard work with no more than an hour of total use. Took it out today to cut a fallen branch, plugged it in, pulled the trigger....silence. Absolutely nothing. Checked the extemtion cord...moved to another outlet, etc., so-forth and so-on. Another exception to the rave reviews I guess.....but it is over a year and a half old...so Poulan probably won't want to hear my story. A waste of $80 + tax in the long run.
 works as advertisedJul 21, 2010
This is my first chain saw so I can't compare it to any other's, but so far it seems to work just fine!
Great sawJul 20, 2010
I had a gasoline chain saw for many years and there was always somesort of a problem with it, I finally got tired of of all the problems and purchased this electric chain saw. It works great and I wish I would have purchased one years ago. The 4 HP is really great, I have cut some really large trees and there has never been an issue that there was not enough power to do the job, it powered through the hardest of hardwood trees.
