Very smooth!
Rating: 5
I had a cordless 20v bandsaw with my old company, very very smooth, simple and easy to change blades, I'm a rough person at work and this tool can take a beating! I personally haven't had any problem with the tool. I would use this daily to cut unistrut, up to 5” steel angles, and threaded rod all different sizes. I can't wait to get my hands on another one since I had to give mine back to my old company! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Best tool for electricians

I just bought this bandsaw and its great. Its not heavy nor is it too small for bigger pipe. I like the convinience of it with the power it carries [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Hate the dual switches
Rating: 2
I like the way it cuts when it's running, but the control logic of the dual switches is unreliable. You can sequence the switches correctly every time, but 3 out of 10 times the saw wont start and then sometimes it shuts off while I'm cutting, with no change in switches. Normally a big fan of Dewalt, but this time you guys got it wrong.

Nice saw, bad triggers.
Rating: 2
This is my second dewalt 20 volt max bandsaw and I am very disappointed! I have an older dewalt bandsaw and it is incredible! It has 1 trigger and it works great. This new saw has 2 triggers and you have to use them in the right order or the saw won't start, and sometimes the saw just quits and you have to start all over. I can't figure out why dewalt did this, this saw is not for professionals, it's like they made this for high school shop students that have never used a bandsaw before ! I have been using power tools for over 30 years now and this is the first deWalt tool I can't stand to use !

Poor Blade Tracking
Rating: 2
Bought this 16 months ago for commercial use. The saw was used very little and began breaking blades after 6 months. Blades are getting pushed under rollers. Tracking does not work well and the blades break. Very dissapointed in this product.

Great saw for unqualified users!
Rating: 1
I've had the single switch 5" deep cut DeWalt cordless bandsaw for 2 years and use the heck out of it. It's still holding up and I prefer it over the other brands. I was devastated to find out that a second switch was added as well as more weight. I use my bandsaw in so many positions that always having to have two hands on a switch will not work for me. Thanks for making this tool safer for the unqualified users but as a professional I will not be purchasing this new version.

Worst porta band I have ever used.
Rating: 1
Just got it yesterday. It stops in the middle of the cut. Even if it worked correctly it requires two trigger points at the same time. This item is not for the construction industry. I have been using porta bands in construction for over 20 years.

Good band saw

This is a really nice band saw. I have used it a lot even though I just got it. I recommend it.

Cutting aluminum nicely
Rating: 5
This band saw works perfectly for my needs. I had to make many adjustments to just get it running, but nothing too difficult. I bought an 18 tooth blade and I'm cutting aluminim with no problem.

My Band Saw
Rating: 5
Terrific little saw just wish I would have gone for the 12 inch size now. There are a lot of things my little saw won't do because of the size of the material.

Skil 9” Bandsaw
Rating: 5
Takes an hour to assemble, is easy to adjust and use. It is sturdy. Great value for your money. I would buy it again.

Good saw for the money
Rating: 4
Nice little bandsaw for the price. You really have to spend some time getting it all adjusted properly but it works very well, especially with a higher quality blade than the one supplied with the saw. My biggest complaint is that the vacuum port is a non standard size!

Only needs one improvement.....
Rating: 4
The construction and the specifications seems to be the same as the competitors. The only thing the skil had that the other did not was the led light. The light is a joke. I am going to attempt to remove the outer lens so the light actually shines through.

Great little saw
Rating: 4
Seems to work well. I have only cut some test pieces so far. Make sure you do some minor adjustments before using. Centering and squaring blade etc.

Blades are very weak, keeps falling .

Garbage,I advise not to buy
Rating: 1
it is useless, it is so flimsy that when u start cutting the material the band saw flexes and band comes off. Its either fiberglass or plastic
