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

GREAT PRODUCT !!!
Rating: 5
This little tool is perfect for my deck railings install since the deck is already done. Cutting the access holes for the railing posts will be so much easier with this tool.Since I had the batteries already I was able to save a little money with just buying the "tool only" option. The power is there when I need it and the design and compact size makes it less tiresome to use than other saws.

I cut 2 short 2x6 board to fix the deck. I used it to cut through drywall and also to cut drapery metal rods. All from a chair. It makes being disabled easier

I bought this saw several months ago and just used it for the first time and it was the best circular saw that I have ever used! It cut straight and was easy to use!

Handy for Small Depth Cutting Projects.
Rating: 5
This tool is ideal for cutting projects that require 1" or less in depth to cut. It is very portable, comfortable, and easy to maneuver while using.

Like the saw. Only problem is the your description picture shows a laser. What I received didn't have one.

BATTERY NOT INCLUDED
Rating: 2
I think its sad that this tool did NOT come with a battery or charger. So until I can afford the expensive parts I cannot use the tool. I wont purchase Worx again for that reason.

Not what I expected
Rating: 1
I bought this to help cut some 2X4's and the blade was not big enough. I guess I didn't see the blade depth when I originally purchased it. I returned it for a refund and that was very smooth I called and was sent a return label and now waiting for the refund
