This saw is perfect for précis woodworking. Compact, light, quiet, and easily adjustable. The only downside is that I wish it had a dedicated dust collection option.
Edwardo Johnson (verified owner) –
Battery life is perhaps the only drawback on this model, though I would like to get Milwaukee’s extended m12 packs to really give this saw the respect it deserves. Used to saw through 5-ply board this saw requires a steady hand and some patience but does deliver a fine job in the end. Recommended for light work where lugging around a more cumbersome saw would not suffice.
Anthony Hills (verified owner) –
This saw is great for occasional use. However the user must be dead on with its use. Any bad habits will bog this saw down. I find the use of a speed square on 2x material to guide the saw really alleviates the problem. Course correction is not an option. I use it for the occasional 2×4 cuts and small plywood cuts. For this the tool works fine. If I was expecting heavier use, I’d look to it’s bigger brothers.

Beautiful little saw. The only issue is that it should come with a gate. It’s small size can make itsquirrely on long cuts.

lightweight and no cords in my way. Battery works with all of my tools and jacket
Joelle Buckridge (verified owner) –
I love the small and light weight saw but not having a dust port on the side makes it kinda messy and I do wish it had one. It does know how to use a battery. It doesn’t just sip!
Fae Koelpin (verified owner) –
great saw light weight love it lot of power cuts great
Carleton Raynor (verified owner) –
The M12 saw I recently purchased worked great for light use sawing. I purchased that saw because I already have 2 M12 drills with batteries that l can interchange when working on a project. Milwaukee could produce a cutoff wheel that fits the saw for cutting light metal. I was unable to find a compatible wheel for such use. With like accessories the saw would be a 6-star tool.

Really like it. Always ready to work. Enough power, low noise
Addie Terry (verified owner) –
Bought this based on reviews. Yes this saw does do a decent job on 2x’s but it did slow down a bit as well. It didn’t so well on plywood. Kept getting stuck mid cut and kept having to back out. Maybe the M18 would do a little better.
Darion Quigley (verified owner) –
Using the tool to cut metal trim for a metal building the saw works great.
Shad Walker (verified owner) –
Not all of us using Milwaukee tools work outside on a construction site. It would be fantastic if I have a saw I could hook up a shop vac to and collect some of that saw dust indoors. I dread taking the saw out knowing the time I will need to clean up. I would pay extra for some sort of accessory that works with a cordless circular saw to help with the dust.
Nat Yundt (verified owner) –
Love it. Has plenty of power and I have three batteries so power is always available.
Paris Green (verified owner) –
I like how powerful this tool is for how small it is. Works great for what I need it for.
Jailyn Satterfield (verified owner) –
I can cut so much .it’s got power . I cut pipe ,wood ,medal siding .can’t say enough about it
Suzanne Considine (verified owner) –
Light weight and powerful. Really performs best with 4.0 or higher batteries.
Madeline Nolan (verified owner) –
I love the M12 line of tools and this one is no exception. Light, powerful, easy to use this saw does it all but in a compact form.
Roy Douglas (verified owner) –
Great saw, size is perfect for what I need it for. Plenty of power and very handy
Imogene Mills (verified owner) –
I have been looking for a small light weight saw while remodeling an old farm house. The fuel saw has not disappointed me at all. I cut through treated lumber just as easy as I cut through non treated lumber and plywood. I am also a huge fan of saws with the blade in the left side so I don’t have to bend over the work piece to see my lines. With its light weight frame, even with a 6ah battery, I can used the saw all day without developing carpal tunnel.
Annabell Kuhlman (verified owner) –
I had the battery and charger and needed this kind of tool and it seems to perform well, so that’s why i bought it. I agree with others that it will not do the number of cuts advertised. But for the money and the jobs I have as a homeowner, it is powerful and very convenient as a cordless, and light and easy to manage, relative to a wired Skil saw. Big job? Go 120. Anything else and this is super convenient and powerful enough to do the job.
