I didn’t like that I had to order the battery separately

Like almost all Milwaukee tools, this saw is well made, but accuracy is not perfect. The blade’s not quite square with the sole plate when set to the stop and fiddling is required to get it just right. This saw’s heavy, so maneuverability is no better than a worm-drive saw and definitely inferior to a top-handle direct-drive. I never even considered the 12 A-hr battery. The 8 is more than sufficient and a good deal lighter. Since I’ve lived in the Milwaukee cordless tool universe for a while, I have several 5 A-hr batteries that are lighter yet. They work fine. Smaller batteries translate to shorter run times but when you have several, it’s no real disadvantage and their lighter weight is a real fatigue saver. When there’s no grid power, this saw cuts like a corded one and is great to have.

This is not a lightweight saw, you better be ready for the heft but with that comes a bunch of power.
Perfect convenient tool –
this is a very handy saw – I have used a corded D handle saw all my life – having the convenience of no cord is an absolute bonus

Added this circular saw to my existing collection. I’ve invested into Milwaukee tools and products and I couldn’t be any happier. This saw cuts through the wood easily and effortlessly. Who needs power cords today? Anyways, I was happy that there was a larger blade since I have a smaller 6″ blade for a previous version of this saw. Very happy and item arrived just in time to fix a broken fence due to wind damage. Superior quality and reliable is what I expect from this tool and all my Milwaukee products!

I have been drooling over this saw for awhile… probably since it came out but couldn’t get myself to spend the money because I didn’t have the use for it…well just bought a new house, and it’s a fixer upper and I finally have a use for it.
Granted I just got it…but out of the box I’m already impressed. Only have a 5ah battery (have a 12ah ordered) and with that it was cutting both 2x4s and 3/4″ plywood like a knife through hot butter.
Between the weight, ergonomic design and the position of the blade making a straight cut is extremely easy with one or two hands. The ambidextrous safety trigger is a nice touch, though takes some getting used to. And I love the blade light, very nice feature.
Granted I can’t speak about it’s longevity, since I just got it, but I’ve never had a problem with Milwaukee. All my Milwaukee tools are powerful and extremely reliable and I’m sure this will be no different.
And the shipping…I gave up prime because I got tired of paying for something that was supposed to garentee 2 day shipping only to wait 3-4 days at best to get it, so naturally I just used the generic shipping object….got it two days later even though it was projected to arrive at a min. 5 days out. Very impressed.
The only thing I found odd but I’m not complaining, is it was shipped in a home Depot box from home Depot and not the Amazon retailer I ordered from. This doesn’t bother me because I know a lot of retailers are simply brokers selling other companies overstock and what not, and I got it way cheaper than from home depot’s shelf and still sealed in the original packaging, I just want to let others know so they arnt shocked.

Great as always, love this saw. Can’t beat Milwaukee

This saw has so much power and endurance that I wear out before the battery. It spins up to speed fast and the blade brakes as soon as you let off the trigger. I like the safety interlock on this saw much better than the setup on my 6-1/2″ M18 saw.

Have much experience with worm drive saw corded electric. I installed 6 AH battery, cuts wood very well. Saw is lighter than my corded Rigid worm drive. Feels like a quality saw No cords to fuss with, or to get in the way. I cut 2×4 several times, cuts like it was hot butter. Very smooth running and stops Immediately on release of trigger. Nice job Milwaukee! Spent over 45 years as a carpenter, wish I had it 45 years ago. Any tool that you would borrow is worth owning! I have no trouble with using large powerful saws. I would recommend this saw. I have many 18v rigid tools 15 or more. I am slowly switching over to Milwaukee. Great tool.

This saw is powerful, ergonomic, and has great cut line visibility. The bevel adjustment lever is problematic, but no big deal to me.

Runs smooth. Cuts great!
