I was looking at battery powered saws for my first circular saw, but couldn’t justify the $ for some of the better ones out there. Plus, many of the battery powered saws lack some of the features on this one, like laser guide and onboard wrench storage. I did purchase a better diablo blado and have not used the included SKIL blade yet, so I can’t speak to that. Laser guide is very accurate on mine with the thinner kerf finishing blade I am using. My only wish is that the bag was just a hair bigger – it’s a real tight fit and no room for anything else except the saw itself. For the money this is a great buy and I’m sure I’ll get a ton of use out of it.

I purchased this saw to replace my harbor freight saw and so far I am very happy I did. I am using a Freud Diablo blade and so far it has cut perfectly straight and smooth cuts. I have made many cuts on melamine sheets over the weekend and didn’t have any issues doing so.

I cannot comment to the laser because I don’t use it since I have mounted this saw onto a Kreg Rip Cut Jig and the combo of the rip jig and saw is a perfect combo. All I have to do now is set the rip jig to the correct length, make the cut and done.

You can find the jig here
