unbeatable for the price

I literally bought this for the battery. I had the 20v max weed eater first and wanted an extra battery, saw this and thought, no brainer. I actually haven't used it yet but my son-in-law has one just like it and he loves it. I haven't had a Black and Decker product fail me yet.

Does the trick for smaller jobs and tight areas
Rating: 5
This 5 1/2 inch hand saw is one of the best products I've ever owned. Small, light-weight, but durable for just about any small to medium woodworking projects one might be considering. I've cut through 1/4" and 1/2" plywood with ease with this saw. Two by fours are a cinch, quick and easy. The 20V Lithium battery provides plenty of power to get the job done. However, depending on the type of wood one is cutting and how much needs to be cut, the battery will drain quicker. I discovered that; after constant hard use for about an hour and a half, the saw would stop cutting through the piece of plywood, indicating that it needed a charge on the battery. It took about an hour to recharge the battery. I highly recommend purchasing several extra batteries and keep them on charge so that one can continue on with their work instead of having to stop and wait for the battery to charge. If you're a person who likes to do small projects where a lot of wood cutting is involved, and you don't like hefting a heavier electric circular saw, this light-weight little saw will not only get the job done, but won't wear your hand/arm out while doing it. This saw is light enough for the average woman to handle and not get fatigued in the arms during use.

I live in a Condo and needed s small circular saw for small DIY projects. This fit the bill perfectly although I really wish it came with s storage case or bag.

Great little saw. Do not have to look up a drop cord and fined a plugin just to make one little cut.

Best purchase Ever!!!
Rating: 5
I was extremely skeptical at first to go with Black and Decker, since most people use other brands but this outperformed my DeWALT, Bosch, & Makita! And it was so much less expensive. After a friend helped me build my deck with it, he went out and bought the same one. It really is a powerful saw, battery lasts forever on a single charge. I have to admit I was stuck in my ways “brand names” but Black and Decker is back!

Not the worst tools.
Rating: 2
I bought the set. It came with the circular saw, the drill, two 20v batteries and the fast charger. I'll say straight away. These tool are for 'light' duty. The drill is not good. I own 18v dewalt cordless drills as well and the dewalt is by far better. And the circular saw is not good either. I just bought a house and in the middle of remodel. So with that said I'm having to cut 2×2, 2×4, and plywood. this saw gets stuck, just shuts off in the middle of a cut. And it kills the battery within 15 minutes of cut time. keep in mind these are brand new batteries and tools. With as much as these cost even being from Wal-Mart should have a bit better quality than they do. Some people cannot afford high quality tools, etc so they rely on black and Decker, or other Wal-Mart specials. With all of that said, the drill and saw would be ideal for someone in the drywall business as it would probably handle well with this softer material.

Did not come with necessary piece to operate

Bought this for my husband's birthday for $73.00 and the protection plan for 3 years. Upon opening the box, it did not include the blade, when it should have. Now when I look at the product, its even less than what I paid for it, and I still don't have a blade for it.

Plenty of Power
Rating: 5
It has enough power to compete with corded worm drives, but in a super portable package. Equipped with a couple of extra batteries, it might just replace your corded model for framing all day long, and it's a great tool for any job where you need extreme portability or the convenience of not having to roll out a cord.

Great saw
Rating: 5
This saw is great. I am a general contractor. I use this saw frequently. It's very durable, I have dropped it several times from the saw horses and it still cuts true. There is plenty of power, cuts bevels with no problem. The built in rafter hook is nice when you need it. It's heavier than the 20v saw but I think the weight and size of this saw help make the cutting easier. I have both saws, but I usually leave the 20v in the shop and take this every day. The only down side is the battery can be difficult to remove sometimes. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Amazing Power
Rating: 5
There isn't anything I have encountered yet that this saw hasn't effortlessly gone through. The power in the saw is apparent as soon as you pull the trigger. If you already have the batteries for it, this saw is a great addition to your tool set. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

As a commercial and residential builder we go through and use a lot of tools. I have found Dewalt's 20V Flexvolt tools to be as rugged as any corded tools out there if not better. Their 20V Flexvolt worm saw is just the best and does not lose power under heavy use. I personally use Dewalt and highly recommended this and any other Dewalt 20V Flexvolt tool as we use them all.

I bought this in April to do fence work but have since built cabinets. What a great tool. It is so convenient. I wish I could have had it years ago.

Best saw I've ever used

I bought this saw two weeks ago and I love it. The guy I work with at work is old and thinks that no cordless saw has any power well I think you proved him wrong. I wish I had a 12 amp hour battery to go with it. It goes three 6amp hour ones pretty fast. Overall I love it
