Top quality

This is a quality item, as always, from Makita. Light weight and easy to use. I should have bought one years ago, instead of spending hours ripping 8ft plywood etc. by hand or struggling with a heavy and awkward circular saw with power lead! As there is no battery or charger, it didn't cost much more than a cheap, inferior product. I have since added a Makita 24 tooth blade which makes for really neat cuts.Read full review...

Excellent saw

This is a great quality saw as you would expect from Makita. It’s well made with very high quality cast aluminum base plate and controls. Equipped with 3AH battery and the saw blade provided it easily cuts an inch thick dry oak and walnut boards.

However I had two issues with the saw:
First - it came well wrapped in plastic and not in a cardboard box despite of my communication with FFX who assured me it’s boxes item. It was not, most likely it was part of a bigger set which was sold out piece by piece.

Second - I should have been more careful before purchase and should have noticed the saw is intended for left hand users. This was never mentioned in the description. When pushed with right hand, the sawdust covers all your arm and face as the dust nozzle points straight to your body.

Bottom line - it’s an excellent and well performing saw however it requires a vac or some sort of workaround to fix the Sawdust nozzle issue. Read full review...

Circular saw

Really pleased with the saw, easy to use. Great features including rail guide and depth measures on the guard so no measuring of blade needed, safety action on the trigger really impressed the model up has a light, brake and dust blower so if these are things you would need maybe the model ending 10 is the one for you 👍🏻Read full review...

Makita circular saw

Have been using on a daily basis and it is worth every penny. Have cut kitchen worktops and all types of timber sheets!!!.. with ease. Wish I'd bought one years ago.

Great little saw.

Weighs next to nothing yet flies through jobs and is very quiet. So much easier to use than a corded saw. Compatible with all LXT tools so don't need lots of batteries. I only need one battery as it only takes 22 mins to fully charge battery. Only drawback is that it only takes 165mm blades.Read full review...

Brilliant piece of kit

I have several power tools by Makita now and I can’t fault them. They are very powerful, nearly as good as a 240v product and battery life is amazing. I would recommend to everyone. I had to take up floorboards on my last job and the saw done the job. 5 Star all the way👍👍👍👍Read full review...

Great little saw

I bought this saw as occasionally I thought it might be useful and a lot quicker not having to get the extension leads out all the time, but this little saw is a lot more powerful than its size suggests and have been using it on much bigger jobs and it just keeps going. Great little saw.Read full review...

Very nice little saw.

This unit is better than my first one you can even put a dust bag on the back if you so desire but I advice on buying trend saw blades or two for these they are superior to Makita blades so you have a spare too for when you take one in for sharpening.Read full review...
