Very good tool
Rating: 5
very good tool. works well, light, comfortable, safe. despite being a tool for light use, I've done a lot of framing with it. When it warms it shuts off by itself, but you can rest assured that when it cools down it works again. this is one of the tools that I would take to a desert island, can not miss.

Accurate and will last till the job is done!

I have had my 20V Dewalt for 8 months and love it! The battery has always lasted long enough to complete a project. I also have another circular saw from a competitor and the Dewalt is build better to help give a more accurate cut! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Pleasant surprise, great deal!
Rating: 5
I did a little research through DeWalt circular saws and decided this was the one I wanted to get. The hardware store didn't have the tool-only model in stock, but they did have this one, with the included 5Ah battery. I've only gotten a small amount of use on it so far, but it has been GREAT so far! The included blade hasn't struggled to cut through the various wood projects I've done, and the battery charge seems to last forever. Very happy with the purchase so far, and looking forward to not having to buy another circular saw for a long time! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

A really powerful saw and bang for your buck
Rating: 5
I bought this saw as an upgrade from my 6 1/2 inch 20volt dewalt saw and couldn't be happier. Way more power than the older model and a deeper cut depth. All in all it's a sweet saw. The 60volt flex volt circular saw is next on my list. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Gets More Use Than A Corded
Rating: 5
Works as well as any corded circular saw I have owned. Being cordless allows you so much more flexibility to use for jobs that would have previously required you to run back to the shop or to drag out long extension cords to build on site. Just no cord to get in the way is a huge bonus. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

A MUST have to your power tool collection!
Rating: 5
I purchased this circular saw for my husband. It's been one of the best purchases I've made. This saw is amazing AND CORDLESS. The convenience of taking this saw wherever you need is priceless. He loves that the 20V battery has a long run time and can be interchanged with other DeWalt power tools. I highly recommend any carpenter or DIY person purchase this circular saw. This saw not only comes with the great reputation of the DeWalt name but satisfaction in owning a quality product. I wish I would've purchased this years ago. As we get older and wiser we've started replacing all our power tools with the DeWalt cordless options. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Can’t believe I waited so long
Rating: 5
Can’t believe I waited so long to buy Dewalt. I’ve owned other brands lesser priced and similarly priced but none have lasted. These are the best hand power tools I have owned. They are durable, rugged, and most importantly, reliable. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Fantastic power saw
Rating: 5
I bought this over a year ago and I love it. The cutting power is seamless and effortless. The battery power lasts for hours. I would recommend this saw to anyone looking for a portable heavy duty circular saw that gets the job done. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

No more cords!
Rating: 5
I purchased a "red" version of this saw and it worked, my boss bought the dewalt and the difference between the two was night and day. The ballance , the cuts and the sight for cutting. After a week of using my boss's saw I replaced the red one with dewalt [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
