Missing blade and accessories
on February 12, 2021
Posted by: Avon
Bought right before going 500+ miles out of town for a job, but when I got there and opened up the box, it was missing the dust port attachment and the blade! I guess I should have checked before working at a place 70 miles from the nearest hardware store, but when I got there they didn’t have any 4 1/2 blades.
I was looking forward to going cordless on this job, but I had to bring out the cordless saw. Disappointed that they could forget something as essential as the blade with a new tool.

i always considered this saw and i finally brought it because i love dewalt and i was just curious. but its literally perfect i can move around the room with the saw on my hip and that works for me.far as power its does exactly what the specs say (can cut 2 by and perfect for plywood and other material with ease. i have no bad things to say but if you woundering do it actually cut 2x4s 2x6s or smaller yes it can
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great for ripping plywood

I bought this in late October. I’ve been slowly switching all my day to day toools to 20v cordless tools. This saw compliments the Dewalt 6 1/2” 20v circular saw I have perfectly. I stopped bringing my corded 7 1/4” circular saw to the job site as soon this arrived. My one criticism is that I wish the line of sight was a little more open. No regrets!

Small but Powerful

This was one of my biggest surprises this year in tools. I had been looking for a small hand saw that was battery powered when I came across this one. Being a fan of Dewalt tools I figured I would give it a try. Wow was I impressed. It has as much or power then my corded saw and has cut through anything it has been asked to. It is compact and easy to control yet rips through 3/4 plywood like a breeze. I would highly recommend this saw to anyone looking for a great compact light weight battery operated saw.

Great for cottage improvement, fix-up jobs.

Great overall but would prefer a notch on the dust collector adapter. After several cuts the adapter slides off. I have to wrap it with silver duct tape.

Easy to use but....

I bought this almost a year ago, and the tool is easy to use, but the battery it comes with overheats very quickly. Can only seem to use this in 20-minute bursts before I have to wait for the battery to cool before charging it again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Works well

I bought the saw today and tried it out right a way. Cuts well and is easy to handle. However for the price, I am disappointed that the dusts bag is not included and the blade wrench was missing

Want to love it. Blade is 1/8” too short for 2x4’s

I bought this as an all around handy circular saw, but either mine is defective or it’s just a hair too small to handle 2x4’s easily. It’s pretty maddening since it just barley doesn’t cut all the way through. This is from multiple 2x4’s both treated and untreated and from multiple big box stores. It’s so close to being awesome, but I just feel like I wasted my money since I ended up having to buy a larger circular saw since this one was driving me mad.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
