No, as they're horrible things.

Far better is the Black & Decker Alligator chainsaw. This isn't the
usual chainsaw, it's a scissor arrangement that makes it safer than
either a normal chainsaw or a reciprocating saw. Although it does
limit it to 4" or less. They do mains or cordless, but I've not tried
the cordless. It's my main saw for pruning, bucking and firewood (If
I'm near power). I'm also chainsaw ticketed, but I don't use one if I
can avoid it.

I thought they were the usual B&D gimmicky rubbish when they first came out.
but for pruning they are safe, quiet and very easy to use (1)
i have the cordless type,
(1) when compared with the one handed chainsaw which it replaces for most
jobs.
