One thing you notice when you cut down trees by hand is that you've cut down a tree and need to do something with it. Son and I would cut down a tree or a limb and then drag it off to the brush pile.
When you start cutting things down with a chainsaw you cut, and then move on to cut something else. Suddenly, you realize you've left a swath of destruction behind you and that you need to hit the off switch for another reason besides adding more gas and oil.
When I bought the saw the sign said it was supposed to include and extra chain. It didn't. I went back to Home Depot after I damaged the one chain I have because I didn't adjust the tension correctly. They gave me the extra chain and replaced the damaged chain because it was less than 30 days. I was very impressed and very glad since they are $17 each.
