MakitaXSS02Z 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless 6-1/2" Circular Saw, Tool Only

Work well loke strong

Been doing some shed repairs-cutting siding and 2-bys, this saw is so light compared to the old 14 lb. Skil saw i had. Being so lightweight, it's around 7 lbs i believe, it's a welcome relief to use. It makes accurate and square cuts. Rips nice, I used an aluminum yardstick, screwed down, as a guide.It is easy to one-hand and make accurate cuts using a speed square as a guide on 2x material. Since it was new, I checked all my cuts with a machinists square and they were all square and repeatable. I was quite surprised.It doesn't like being put in a bind tho...bogs down quickly. Also, it's light weight deceives one into believing it's cheaply-made. I doubt it could survive drops from elevations and it's only been used for saw horse cutting. I've used it for crosscuts, miters on 2x boards and ripping. It's done it all well. The price is reasonable for the tool-only.I wish the visibility of the blade-to-cutting line was better and the saw dust discharge was directional.I wouldn't use it to frame a house or build a deck with heavy materials, but for 95% of what i need it's quick to grab and use and make accurate cuts.Happy with my purchase.

Es el producto que yo pedí a mi esposo le le gustó está feliz muchísimas gracias Amazon me gusta comprar en Amazon y la entrega fue antes de lo propuesto

I really like Makita products and have a set of batteries for other Makita tools. This saw is compact and lightweight which works well for me, as heavier saws are hard to hold. It does the job too, cutting through thin material easily and also heavier wood. I only used it on 2x4s so far, so not sure how well it will do on really thick material, however I always have my corded saw for that. The battery I have has not diminished after several hours of intermittent use putting up wall board, so I am happy with that aspect. I love that it is compact and cordless which makes it a very versatile saw! This particular saw did not come with the original box which was not important to me, but if you want the box and the plastic box that most tools come with, this is not for you. I did not realize that it did not come with the original box. It was very well packed and did include the instructions and a fence, which was fine for me. Not sure why the description did not mention the original box wasn't included. That said, I am happy with this saw and believe that Makita products are good, so not a problem.

A Makita must have

Didn't come in the original packaging so I'm not sure if it is completely new, but seems to be working just fine. The build queality seems to be up to Makita's standard.

My husband loves it

I purchased this saw with other Makita products in 2017, that’s ~ 7 years ago, and I still use it around the house.Still, 7+ years it still works great. It’ll rip thru a 2x4 easily, plywood is no problemThis is light enough to always be my first choice. You don’t have to unwind power cords ( and put them back up), the battery stays charged a long time, charges quickly, lasts a long time.I just looked at the current price, and if someone offered me that for mine, I wouldn’t sell it, i.e. I’m still glad I bought it.
