I own a set of these and whenever my Son-In-Law started a project he would ask me to bring my set over. I decided it would make a great Christmas gift for him. I love mine. I’m sure he will love his.

The batteries were easy to attach to the saw

Battery is nice. But it costs 189.00 plus tax for one Battery!

My last one lasted 20 years, dependable and durable, I would not be able to do the type of construction I do without something that is powerful enough to do the job, The belt clip makes overhead work much easier, I would only use Makita products, they have proven to make the job easier
Bridgette Sporer (verified owner) –
The saw was real easy to use and very well-built

This is one of those tools that I long looked at but couldn’t quite figure out how I would use it (or justify its purchase). Since have purchased it, it has become essential! Granted, I am in the middle of a home remodel, but I can’t begin to tell you how many times I puzzled over how to cut something (piece of trim would in an awkward position, cut a nail, etc), only to realize I have my multi-tool! This thing is solid in the hand (meaning heavy and robust feeling) and more importantly, powerful. Uses tons of blades and I love the rapid release mechanism and multiple blade speeds. Also comes with some adapters for blades that dont fit the tool (although I havent run across any that dont). Easy to use, not overly large, but clearly well made. I love it and wish I had one long ago. I use it to cut wall board, cut back installed trim (during demo) flush cut wood corners, clean grout lines of recently laid tile…fix mistakes, the list goes on. Next to my cordless drill, this is my other essential tool. I picked the Makita because I have several other Makita tools (so have the battery system), but in general I am loyal to Makita – they have always done well for/by me. I’m not a professional, just a DIY who enjoys remodeling and doing projects around the home.

Had some problems with the charger already.

I’ve been using Makita tools for years and bought this as a gift for my son to get him started on the Makita platform.I use this particular saw and believe it’s one of the best 18V saws available.
Brain West (verified owner) –
Works great for my job. Great purchase. They hold their charge too 🙂
Erica Hessel (verified owner) –
Perfect for cutting pvc pipe.

This set is the way to go if you can. There are cheaper models but you get what you pay for. Now I have 2 5ah batteries and can buy other tools I won’t use as much and come with smaller batteries. If I need to put a 5ah battery on them I have 2.
Everette Kuhic (verified owner) –
Kinda heavy for a multi tool incomparison of other brands but is solid and does work
Kasandra Hill (verified owner) –
Works great and real heavy duty. It’s worth the money.

I was hoping it would have a little more power than it does. The 4.0 battery I use didn’t last as long as I had hoped.
