Good tool works great it’s heavy and big so it doesn’t fit tight spots but it chews through steel with no problem

This tool is an excellent addition to the shop. It is a daily use tool that takes some abuse. Metal fabrication production level.

I use everything Milwaukee. From my drill bits. To my heated jacket. Even my wire striper is a Milwaukee.

I’ve been doing a lot of pipe fence with this saw . The money and time this has saved me is truly amazing. Cut after cut , it goes through 2 7/8 pipe like butter . I couldn’t be happier with this purchase. Keep on doin Milwaukee , as long as you keep making tools I’ll keep buying them.

Had put this against my corded milwaukee bandsaw. Was very dramatic. Literally less than half the time on every cut made. Double trigger gets irritating but that’s the only negativity i have towards this

This is the best bandsaw by far that I have owned, from the power, portability, ease of use to the flip out clip, all pro’s no con’s, keep up the great work Milwaukee.

Looked at several players and went with Milwaukee. Really didn’t need the Deep cut but figured I would take that route as future-proofing needs and figured this was the top-of-the-line unit. One let down for sure is that in the pictures, reviews you see on the internet, and pictures on companies sites that sell this unit show metal drive wheels for the saw band. Well… the 2729 obviously was recently downgraded to polymer drive wheels, anyone reading this review and looking at this saw, may wind up with your new saw with Polymer wheels. The polymer wheel are on other models of their saws so i’m sure it’s fine but would think the metal wheels hold up better with time. Perhaps that’s the goal… more repairs. I would love to see pictures at least updated with the poly wheels showing so people know what to expect rather than bait and switch.

Do not hesitate to buy this bandsaw. If you build fence especially. This thing will not fail you and the weight is good as well

I use a corded model at work all the time trimming metal and shaping projects, but wanted one for my own work shop. But this one and it meets every expectation I had. Cuts metal like warm butter, just like the corded version. I use it daily.

First year sparky. Using my bandsaw to cut PVC,EMT and RMC on site. Belt is easy to remove and install.Cuts smooth with controllable speeds. Abit on the heavy side,that’s why I’ll be buying the portable table soon

Powerful little saw and replacement blades aren’t that expensive. Very handy for making cuts when a generator or power isn’t close at hand.Highly recommended.

Always wanted this band saw use it all the time at work as a pipefitter. It has been a great tool for cutting black iron pipe, unistut, copper pipe ,to many applications to name. Milwaukee tools for ever

I love this tool! I’ve had it a couple weeks now and have cut pvc and steel piping as well as rebar. So nice to get a quick clean cut with dragging a cord around.
Zack Cummerata (verified owner) –
Mostly cut copper tube and strut with the M18 deep cut bandsaw and it cuts like butter. Have used it on cast iron, 1/2″ thick steel plate and so much more. It is nicely balanced to help make straight cuts (not so straight for the young buck, but in time). Thinking about buying another one for around the house

Milwaukee Tools are the best i have ever used.
