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.]

No shortage of power!
Rating: 5
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
Rating: 5
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

Like a hot knife through butter.
Rating: 5
I've used many circular saws in my life. This blows them all out of the water! It's not light, and for one handed sawing, your arm will feel it at the end of the day, but it slides through lumber like butter. Can't believe I waited so long to buy it.

Quality of Skilsaw
Rating: 5
My last Skilsaw finally gave up the ghost.After 34 years of faithful service to me,I had bought it well used, I'm now 65, hopefully it will be as faithful for another 34 years and that I may be still using it if the Good Lord works it out for me! Thanks Skilsaw

Skil wormdrive the absolute best for me
Rating: 5
I have used this saw for years, this about my 5th one over about 40 years of hard use in building houses and other projects. In my day it was known as a 'west coast saw'. Because of its weight. Eastern builders like little lightweight saws. But the quality, the life and the cut these dates produce are almost unequalled. I get tablesaw quality cuts in fine work. This saw loved the sight of a stack of wood!

An Avid DIYer's Review
Rating: 5
great saw. tons of power and torque. It cuts through everything I've thrown at it. I'm 6' 8" with big hands and this thing fits like a glove. Almost like it crafted just for me. It's a wee bit hefty, but you can use that to work your way through whatever material you're cutting.

Skills saws are the best on the marketplace

Skills saws have been with me and my crews while I was working over my years working and never had problem just wore them out they got the jobs done and never gave out on us .

Absolutely Awesome Saw!
Rating: 5
Best saw I have used to date. Excellent torque and handling. Love this saw. If I ever buy another it will be the Mag 77 version. I 100% recommend this saw to anyone.

The only problem I found is that the specs show no specifications for a 100' extension cord.
