Awesome smaller job saw .. Very portable as well… Spend extra get the FUEL model it’s faster (5000 rpm) other ones 3500… And get the 6 1/2 its left blade you can see the cut better .. Rafter hook is a great addition locks up well … Blades are 13 bucks for 2 at Home depot (Diablos) for now anyway ..That’s a good buy as well .. Remember it’s a battery saw your not going to blast out ten thousand cuts on one battery but if you want a very portable top built small saw – some call a”Toy saw “.. Then it’s a great choice .. As for the other brands… I have used Dewalt older ones there fine too , The Bosch is good …. Depends on what your used too or comfortable with and already have batteries for I guess … Home Depot gives 10% Military discount so this ones 2 hundred and change with tax good deal…. Anyway , I like it some probably will not and as they say regarding opinions… They are like you know what and everyone thinks there’s dosent stink lol lol lol …Enjoy your new tool, work hard , stay safe , stay strong God bless !!!! “V”

I have owned many Milwaukee M18 tools for years and have been very pleased with their performance and durability. The Fuel series is just the next generation of an outstanding product line

The unit was well packaged to withstand shipping and it was easy to assemble. The Allen wrench was easy to locate on the saw. The blade doesn’t wobble, so when I get to use it, it will be a great day. I just got the battery charged, but haven’t used it yet. One feature I really appreciate is the clarity of the light codes on the charger. I must have dislodged the battery after I placed it on the charger and the lights quickly notified me that it wasn’t connected properly.

The left side cut takes some getting used to, but this is an excellent and powerful saw; smooth cuts and accurately adjustable. Easy weight and size to manage on the job without fatigue. A great addition to my M18 family of tools.

I love this saw! It ships from Milwaukee with a carbide blade which is always great to use and it’s lightweight enough to use overhead for things like cutting rafter tails, but doesn’t sacrifice any power. The built-in LED work light is a nice feature, and turns on when you depress the safety switch before activating the blade trigger so you can line your cut up perfectly before the blade moves. Runs great with a 5 amp hour battery, but I usually use an 8 amp hour. You could go as high as the 9 amp hour, but I can see weight being a bit of an issue if working for extended periods with that or the 12 amp hour. The handle hook is also a nice feature when working in open framing, but stays nice and tucked out of the way when you don’t need it.There are two areas of improvement I see for this saw, but neither are deal breakers by any means.First: the allen wrench that the saw comes with ti change the blade has a little holder that it can store on the saw with, but it’s kind of loose and can become dislodged over time. A simple fix for this would be to put a small retaining magnet or maybe a little tighter plastic holder that would be akin to a bit holder on some drills.Second: On the top right side of the blade guard, the saw has a handy guide with various ticks cut into the guard used for precise measurements when setting your plunge depth. Unfortunately, the edges of those tick marks have a bit of an edge on them which can be a knuckle scraper from time to time. I haven’t experienced it, but my coworker had some scraped knuckles after using it for a day. If you wear work gloves while using it, it’s not an issue, but depending on the size of your hands and grip, your mileage may vary.Both are relatively minor complaints in the scope of normal work, but are the only reason I’m not giving it 5 stars. All in all, I definitely recommend picking this saw up!

Light enough for all day use. Need to upgrade to bigger amp battery for longer use but for the deal I got for the saw, bag, blade, charger, and 5amp battery I won’t complain.Did not take long for me to get used to the blade being on the left from the motor. I am able to see my line way better than when blade is on right. Using a saw wether it be a hackzall, sawzall, or circular saw, I was always uncomfortable. I found out only a couple years ago that I possess carpentry skills that I use for myself and a handful of homeowners I remodel for. Considering myself only a beginner in the trade but I feel like a pro from the comfort level it puts me at.Already testing it’s durability by using it on a shed where I’m installing James Hardie HardiePlank Cement Siding using a Kingthai 5in. Turbo Rim Diamond Blade. So far I’ve finished the job and we continued on to a couple new projects!Highly recommend the blade of left of motor for all users especially beginners. If I knew this years ago,…..who knows what I would had built or remodeled by now!
