So nice to finally go cordless on a circular saw. They have so many models that it’s confusing trying to pick one, but this is a great saw and if you are willing to wait you can get a great deal on a bundle. The deals on this bundle usually don’t last long though, so be ready.

This saw is great. I really like the fact that it has an auto brake on the saw blade. As soon as you let go of the trigger, it stops.

I have used this saw just a couple of times since purchase and it is everything I was hoping for. Portable, easy to use. accurate cutting and I have not had to go to my electric saw or stop a project because the battery needed recharge.I would recommend.

I love RIDGIT tools, this purchase was for my son. He thanked me, and is now a life time Ridgit customer. One service improvement recommended is the lifetime battery policy. It only applies to certain purchased batteries with tools and not separate battery purchases. I would like to see the lifetime battery policy apply to all Ridgit batteries because everyone needs spare batteries and the same warranty should apply when purchased separately!

This saw really works! I was skeptical with battery operated circular saw, but this saw with 4ah battery cut 6 solid core doors perfectly. Rips thru 2x4s easily also

A little heavy but it gets the job done.

Works better than expected. I cut 3/4 plywood and also cut pallets apart for projects. Very easy to use and is better than my corded saw that I used before.

Works great and is compatible with my 18 volt ridgid drill and batteries

Quality built tool that handles everything I throw at it. Has allowed me to get many of my project completed without having to run an extension cord. Every time I use the saw it makes me happy that I finally bought it.

I received this saw as a Christmas gift. I used it the first time a few weeks ago for cutting 1/2 PT plywood. Using an Irwin carbide tipped blade, it cut through the plywood and a few PT 2x4s with ease. It also went through the battery almost as fast. This was the first time I used the saw and basically liked it. I was concerned about the battery life, but wasn’t a real issue with me since I have several ones to use. The safety switch was a little cumbersome but I got used to it. My biggest concern is the blade guard. It appears to be made of plastic. I would imagine it break fairly easily if the saw was accidentally dropped or fell from a work table.

The saw is well built and it has plenty of powerThe only negative is if a large amp/hr battery is used it seems a little heavy

The value of brushless and a battery included made it worth the money.
