Another fine example of why I m changing from ryobi to makita. Bigger blade, way more power, and is made stronger. Very pleased with the saw.

I like that it works with my existing Makita batteries. It does not have as much power as a corded unit. But for 90% of my cuts, this will will do and I do not have to drag a cord around. Finding good blades is not as easy as for a 7.25 in blade. If would buy it again if I had the need.

Great saw, it has plenty of power using a 3an battery. It’s light but has a good solid feel to it. The baseplate is excellent and was easy to attach to my kreg rip cut jig. I expect years of use like the rest of my Makita tools.
