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 bought this to saw fence boards. I am an 110 lb woman. Love this thing. In no time flat the board was up. Can't wait to use it for other jobs [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

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.

No Laser

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
