Rank #5 in Best Petrol Chainsaw 2026: 10 Ranked, and Why the Horsepower Claims Don't Match
Hyundai HYC6220 62cc Petrol Chainsaw, 20-inch Bar
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
At number five in this guide, the Hyundai HYC6220 is the 62cc petrol chainsaw with a 20-inch bar - the cheapest way onto this list if you want a large-displacement engine rather than a smaller one. It is £129.99, rated 4.3 out of 5 from 248 ratings, and it turns up with two chains, a chain file, a mixing bottle and a carry bag rather than a bare saw.
The guide's 62cc saws quote anywhere from 3.0 HP to 3.8 HP for engines of identical displacement; this listing quotes no horsepower figure and no kW at all. What it quotes instead is a 20in (50cm) bar, 7 kg and a claimed 40in cutting diameter. One other number is worth flagging: the title calls the saw the HYC6220 while the spec table gives the model number as HYC6200X. Everything on this page is taken from the Amazon listing, not from a saw we tested ourselves.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“A lot of kit for a low price. I bought it as backup while my main chainsaw was being fixed. This is a great set with tools and 2 chains. It's not the robust build of a pro brand but a fraction of the price. It took about 25 pulls to start up. But then ran beautifully and went through a 9 foot high cherry tree trunk easily doing logs.”
Verified purchase“Excellent light weight chainsaw up for larger jobs, very impressed”
