  • Professional grade
I've been in construction my whole life. Framed building for a few years and built quite a few various structures. I've also run the DeWalt flexvolt rear handle saw....Though it is slightly more powerful the Makita it smoother and better designed. This 40v saw is way beyond the various 18-20 v offerings. It rips two by lumber almost like a corded worm drive. Impressive. Shop around and you can find genuine Makita 4.0 ah 40 v batteries for about $80 shipped 😉 ... show more

  • GREAT INVESTMENT!
Nice and easy to use without the cord. Heavier but well worth it.

  • So close to being a fantastic saw
This saw would be truly amazing if they didn't screw up the dust port so bad (an LED light at the front would have been nice too). The power and performance is great if you use a good blade (I like Diablo or Flex blades) as well as a good battery (the 4ah is fine, but this thing is truly a beast with their 5ah battery). I just don't get how they can have such amazing ergonomics, power, and refinement but have such terrible dust extraction. Dust flies everywhere on a rip cut, and I can barely see my cut line. If there's any wind at all, then it's good night. There is going to be a dust storm. It's a shame, especially considering what they charge for this bad boy. I believe that all the dust going everywhere can also cause the guard to not move as smoothly as it could otherwise, and this seems to sometimes cause the saw to get hung up. Just beware if you purchase this thing, it's smooth as butter and has a tremendous feel to it, but it's dust extraction is very very bad compared to the other good options out there. I love my Makita 40v tools, but this one is a big disappointment and could have been a perfect tool. One more note, why on earth are the indicators at the front of the shoe so far off from where the blade meets your material? The other saws I have got this right, but the little triangular notch is useless? Maybe I got a bad saw or something, but I don't see how they messed that up either. ... show more
