Description
Makita is the innovation leader in brushless motor technology and the 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 6-1/2 in. Circular Saw (model XSH03Z, tool only, battery and charger sold separately) combines power and run-time for faster cutting and ripping without the cord. The XSH03Z is equipped with Automatic Speed Change Technology, which adjusts speed and torque during operation for optimum performance. The Makita BL brushless motor is engineered for longer run time, increased power and speed and longer tool life. The XSH03Z features Extreme Protection Technology, engineered for increased dust and water resistance for operation in harsh job site conditions. It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18-Volt Lithium-Ion series, the world’s largest cordless tool line-up powered by an 18-Volt Lithium-Ion slide-style battery. Makita 18-Volt Lithium-Ion batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger. For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created Star Protection Computer Controls. Star Protection is communication technology that allows the Star Protection-equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging and overheating.

Very easy to hold/use
Bailey Schinner (verified owner) –
Excellent saw , the lightest saw I have used easy to see cut line .
Christian Reinger (verified owner) –
Definitely worth the price. I use 4 ohm batteries and they last for at least 120 cuts (average 1″ thick poplar and cherry solid wood). Smooth cuts with a 40 toothe finish blade. Highly recommended even over the 36v Makita.
Constantin Jones (verified owner) –
Great saw. Very quiet and powerful enough for most of my needs.
Marcelino Yundt (verified owner) –
nice saw lightweight without that cheap feeling .already had many other Makita 18 volt tools so just buying the tool instead of a kit is very cost effective.The electric brake is awesome-do not buy any circular saw without this feature
Sienna Keeling (verified owner) –
Excellent combination of power, balance, and weight! More power and lighter than my 18v Milwaukee Fuel 6 1/2” circular saw. Balance makes it very easy to guide one handed. Use in place of my corded 7 1/2” saw for 90% of my framing tasks.
Jayda Lesch (verified owner) –
Good
Vivien Schoen (verified owner) –
Great first impression
Neha Bergnaum (verified owner) –
Makita good，but the warranty is only one year！
Taya Koch (verified owner) –
Excellent build quality. Feels solid.
Hunter Vandervort (verified owner) –
This saw is one of the best saws I’ve owned. It cute through 2X6 with ease. Works as well as my corded saw.
Shanel McCullough (verified owner) –
Light weight, easy to use, long lasting battery. Nice sturdy well made tool bag for all to fit in. Couldn’t be more pleased.
Demario McDermott (verified owner) –
So much better than the Rigid and Dewalt 5 1/2” 20 v saws I have access to. Operation is smooth and no bogging down sawing 2×8 PT. Line guide is spot on. Like the rafter hook too.
Kenneth Kris (verified owner) –
Lightweight and Torquey! Love it.
Elias Kohler (verified owner) –
Great tool. Light and easy to maneuver. Doesn’t come with a battery is why I gave 4 stars. It comes with a general purpose carbide blade. I was cutting PVC exterior 1×4 trim. It cut through with no slow down, no melting. Great tool buy with confidence
Marco Mitchell (verified owner) –
Does everything I need it to do
Harrison Volkman (verified owner) –
Had the brushed version for years and finally upgraded. Awesome saw. Between the light, electric brake, and onboard battery indicator, it’s a pretty amazing step up from my previous one.
Luella Smitham (verified owner) –
Cuts extremely well and easy to use. I really like the blade lock for safely and easily changing the blade.
Jada Flatley (verified owner) –
I love the saw however I thought it came with a charger and extra battery
Marielle Goyette (verified owner) –
Used for a siding repair job – quite pleased with how well the saw worked. It’s light & well-balanced, making it easy to handle when cutting siding off a house. I was surprised how much easier the job was without an electrical cord in the way. Can’t speak to long-term reliability yet.
