    I order the Saker chainsaw. I did not receive a battery charger with my order, nor did I receive a second battery. I have email this company. I have looked for a telephone number but can not find one. When the one battery runs out I will not have any way to charge it. This company needs to have a way of communicating with customers. SORRY.

    I ordered a kit of items, a mini chainsaw with two batteries and 4 extra chains. I only received 2 chains in the mail. Upon investigating their ad on ********* they're doing this to many others. I am confident they are not going to respond to me, not help me. $145.99 was what I paid.

    I ordered one item from the SmartSaker website. I never received any kind of confirmation or order number. SmartSaker sent me - and charged me for - four of the item I tried to order, over $75 more than I agreed to pay for. There was no packing slip or any kind of information referencing an order number, transaction number, or any kind of customer service/return policy inside the package. There is only an email address/form on their website (no phone number) to request customer service. I have sent three separate messages, one including a photo of the package label, and have not received any kind of response. All I want is to return the three unwanted items, not pay for return shipping, and receive a refund for the overcharge.

    I ordered a SmartSaker mini saw and extra chain in early November, paying through PayPal. I received a shipping notice within a week showing the item was in Route, in ******* **. Nothing since then.I have emailed the company about weekly since Christmas, with no response. Im horrified at the number of complaints against the company now that I look deeper.There is no phone number for the company anywhere I can find.The most frustrating part is I continue to receive marketing emails from the company, and they are all over social media. This is false advertising, and the company needs to be stopped and made to pay restitution.
