I really like the feel of this tool while cutting and easy to change blade.
Greyson Lehner (verified owner) –
The saw has a pretty good run time for being cordless. Works as I expected it would, cuts great, has a plastic attachment for cutting on sure surfaces without marring.

This is my favorite cordless router in its class. This has nice power and paired with Makita’s 5 amp/hr batteries, it lasts a long time. This router is compact, and nicely featured. Do not buy this thinking you are getting the same power as a full-size corded model. Its a great little router, but be realistic in your expectations. It works well for me with aluminum lowers.

Great tool. Makita makes a great product. Not as powerful as expected. There’s no real noticible difference between this and 12v jigsaw I bought this to replace, which is also half the size.

Perfect weight and balance and performance. Needs a blower to clear the sawdust to complete the package.
