[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great circular saw. I love the color which gives it an environmental look. It was easy to set up and easy to install the blade. Handle was good on saw. I loved the wrench tool feature because it fits in the casing of saw to avoid losing the tool piece which is used to tighten. Saw is user friendly. Table measurement guard makes easier for cutting. Lightweight than typical market saw. Definitely would recommend.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband has been wanting a good circular saw for a while so I was excited for him to get this one. The tool itself is very sturdy and you can tell it's great quality. The battery is not included with the saw but that's ok. Once you have the battery, you're all set and can work for quite a bit with no problems.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am really liking this saw. The instructions were way to understand. Set up was a breeze. Its lightweight and easy to grip. I've used this for a couple projects now and the cuts are terrific. I can totally see this being my new favorite saw
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this battery-operated saw from Greenworks. I was a bit skeptical at first -- thinking it would not have all the features I'm used to using with a corded saw, but that's not the case. You can still angle the saw and get a lot of power out of this battery-operated saw. It's designed well, so it feels good in your hand and has some weight to it which I liked. Putting the blade on and using it only takes a few minutes.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This saw is pretty awesome. It is super easy to get started and use. Love that it's battery operated so there are no cords or anything else holding you back. The noise is not too loud like some others. And it cuts through wood so smooth. Not disappointed.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was a bit skeptical about the 24v power from this saw. However, It has performed exceptionally well through various types of woods. I had some osage orange wood lying around which is known to be a stronger hardwood so I decided to test it with the saw. Surprised because of this brand but not surprised after cutting various types of wood -- it went through the osage orange with ease. The build quality is solid and should last for years. I'm impressed with this saw and would recommend it to friends and family.
The first thing I noticed about this was how light it is compared to my corded skill-saw. Lightweight is a good thing with some of my bigger projects.
However I’m super annoyed that this saw uses a proprietary battery. I got it thinking I could use my two other brand’s batteries but none of them fit. If I invest in yet another battery, that’s three tool platforms that I have to deal with. It’s a pain to remember charging two batteries at the end of the day. Having to buy a battery means the value of the price point is not as great on the surface.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hello Kengreen,
Thank you for the feedback. We are sorry to hear you are feeling slightly let down the tool battery cross compatibility. For every brand, the battery pack is designed specifically only for its products. These cordless tools have their very own technology and features and by that, each of these features requires a certain amount of voltage to deliver the optimized performance. We will take your comments and pass them along to our product design team for future consideration. In the meantime, please feel welcome to contact us at 1-888-909-6757 (1-888-90WORKS) or by email on info@greenworkstools.com with any further questions or concerns.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am currently buying tools for my projects. I enjoy DIY and woodworking. I am very happy with my Greenworks circular saw. It’s exactly what I needed in a saw. This saw has a 24v brushless motor. It has longer use time and it’s much quieter. The grip is wider and cushioned making it very comfortable to handle. This type of grip makes me feel I have better control over the saw. The saw is not heavy to handle. It’s has a clear blade safety cover. The blade is great quality making the cuts clean. Cutting hard angles is a breeze. As soon as I release the trigger the blade is stopped by the electric brake. This is a wonderful safety issue. I love the LED because it lights up my cut lines. The saw is powered by a battery pack-not included. I highly recommend Greenworks Tools for any project. Operation Manual included.
