  • It’s a great tool.
Style: Circ Saw Kit
I’ve used corded skill 77’s for most of my life so this took me a minute to get used to but I’ve learned to love it. Good power and torque, the batteries charge fast enough to be helpful, the batteries last long in the field, and the tool size is very similar to the skill saws. In addition, the table and angle adjustments are more precise than my old skillsaws and the weight is virtually equal to my skillsaws, plus no cord! Very functional and easy to use in the field, and the motor seems to be a little quieter. ... show more

  • Best Saw
Style: Circ Saw Kit
I bought this Makita saw with two batteries, and I’m sure it’s the best saw you can get. It lasts all day without needing a recharge and works perfectly. The power and durability are way better than Dewalt or Milwaukee. If you need a reliable saw that can handle a full day of work without slowing down, this is the one to get! ... show more

  • A welcome change from a worm drive!
Style: Circ Saw Only
I'm a contractor and this thing so far is up to the professional requirements of a jobsite. It's noticeably lighter than a corded magnesium worm drive, but not so light that it can't push through material. Seems like the perfect balance. A rear handle saw needs to have some weight, but doing a lot of repetitive work with a standard corded saw can be hard on the arms and wrists, so it's nice to shed a few pounds with this thing. Using two 5ah batteries this thing seems to go all day, though if you were to do a lot of rips though you'd probably have to change the batteries once during the day. I do have some criticisms about it though, one being that the rafter hook is awkward. I think it's designed to be able to hang off of a 3x material or an LVL, just something larger than the 1 5/8" you'd need for 2x, but since most of us are most of the time hanging things off of 2x the extra play in the hook can leave the saw hanging a bit loosely. I prefer the way a worm drive hook hangs the saw, but maybe I'll find a day when the larger hook really earns its keep? The other thing, more of a nuance, is the safety button needed to engage the trigger. Still not quite used to it. I'm all for safety's as much as possible, but I'm very used to only needing one finger to start a skill saw. There's really not a whole lot more that can be said about it, it performs very well for its intended purpose. I do think the DeWalt is also a very good saw, and I'd like to try them both side by side, and one thing that I believe the DeWalt has on this thing is the way that the dust is ejected from the housing. I saw a side by side comparison of the two and I could see how well the DeWalt dealt with the dust, while the Makita shoots it straight down onto the workpiece. Not a deal killer, but definitely a leg up when doing rips. These small details matter if you use this tool a lot, so just something to consider. While we're on the subject, it would be nice to only have to deal with changing one battery, instead of two. I'm not going to dock any stars for these things, but basically, there's competition :) ... show more

  • Finicky Tool. Not For Beginners.
Style: Circ Saw Only
This is a somewhat challenging saw to use. As far as quality goes, it's everything you'd expect from Makita. Solid, construction grade. Relatively long battery life, but make sure you buy extra battery sets for it. The downside is that it is difficult to cut on a straight line. The spec blades' kerf is extremely thin and provides little to no assistance in cutting on a straight line. It binds very easily. The cutting material must be solidly supported, no movement during the cut and you must be perfectly aligned with the saw and material while cutting. Not great and sometimes not possible on construction. The blades must be razor sharp and they are so thin,they dull surprisingly quickly. So buy a bunch and change them regularly. Finally, the spring tension on the blade guard is too tight. The gaurd was also causing problems for me during the cut. But with a little mechanical know how, this can be remedied by stretching the spring out a little. ... show more

  • where has this thing been? should of been made long ago!
Style: Circ Saw Only
I have had many cordless 20ish volt circular saw, makita 18v, dewat 18v, and hilti 18v. and usually i reserve them all for plywood cutting, or 3/4 lumber. not 2x4 and up. recenty i tried the 60v dewalt monster for a more applicable saw,it has nice power but heavy, and agressive with its power as most direct link circular saw are to me, also i hated the blade being on the right side view, not sure why alot of cir. saw are this view when most people are right handed. but this makita fits the bill. cuts anything my worm drive Skilsaw 7 1/4 does, not as much power ofcourse but still it does it, and does it smoothly. i love how the power comes on this thing, it feels soft but its cuts is almost as solid as plug in. its lightwieght at least compare to the dewalt, or perhaps its just better balanced, but to me it feels lighter. also gotta love the fact that you dont need new batteries, 18v lxt battery works perfect! ofcourse best part is the blade is veiwable when cutting with your right hand. since i got it, i really dont even use my worm skilsaw at all, it feels so much heavier now next to this thing and and i got the ligther mag version of skilsaw. one down side, for me atleast is battery doesnt last anywhere near advertised.i am currently running on lxt 3.0 battery fairly new set, but i still give it 5 stars. its good of makita to take a risky design first, and honestly i am not sure why none came earlier, makes sense to me, but perhaps maybe cost? technical challenge? not sure, but hopefully other companies will come out with similar cordless worm drive circular saw in the near future. oh also the default blade is decent for framing, rough cuts, if switch to a thin kerf blade with higher tooth count, it can cut very smooth too, i used it to cut 1/2 plexiglass to seamed. ... show more
