Great value and saw
I love this little saw. The guard on the front needs to “be adjusted” but that’s with any new circular saw. I put a Denali blade on it to try the blade out and it works great. I oil/wax my blades to help with heat and ease of cutting. This was a great value-I reach for it all the time when I just need something cut without super precise measurements. Even then, it’s pretty precise on 2x4s, etc… and small sheets.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very nice tool.
Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2023

Excellent tool for a DIYer. My first use of this tool was yesterday. It was a very pleasant and rewarding experience. It cut through a 6 inch wood smoothly that if not for the saw dust exhausting out, I did not initially believe that it was sawing the wood. A reviewer who described his experience as "cutting through butter" is absolutely correct. It cut effortlessly and smoothly. It is light weight and yet did not transmit much vibration to my hands. I like the safety buttons that prevent an accidental triggering. I found removing the attached spanner and releasing the depth adjustment lever stiff. Perhaps this is intentional by design so the spanner does not come out loose from the storage compartment while you are carrying the saw.This is very good. I also think that the depth adjustment lever being stiff is also an added advantage, so the depth adjustment stays put at the depth of cut you adjusted the blade to. Overall., I have been impressed with this circular saw. For an occasional DIYer such as myself, this is well within my budget and well priced by the manufacturer. Well done, SKIL. My only disappointment is that all the available dust collectors on Amazon are not compartible with this SKIL saw. I hope the manufacturer can go a step further and design a dust collect system that will work with SKIL circular saws.

I inherited my father-in-law’s Skill Saw 20 years ago. It still runs even with west and tear over the years. Motor spins smoothly. I saw this new Skill Saw at a discount price and just couldn’t pass it up. Handle fits my hand well. Low center of gravity make saw easy to use and keep on line. It’s just as good as saws twice the price. I figure my son will inherit this new saw some day.

Few times i get a product and I'm extremely happy about it, this is one of them. At first i didn't really like the 'color', but it was ok, as I played around with it i noticed the nice design features it has. Very well engineered.

Note, this is my 'first' ever circular saw, so i don't have much reference points, however, I like it very much. I do have some other cutting tools, but never a circular saw.

So I used it to cut some wood that I needed to cut through 2.5 inches, which this 7 1/4" blade you will have to divide that by two and then reduce some more to figure out the length it can cut, so this saw length barely was able to cut at length of 2.5 inches, if you need to cut anything larger than 2.5 inches i think you will need to jump into the 10" circular saw.

Note, this is quite powerful circular saw at 15 amps.

Price wise this is a great value for your money in my opinion, other higher end brands will costs probably double. I do not have an extreme heavy use for it, it is just for hobbies and fixing stuff, so this fits perfect for me and my budget. Happy with my purchase.

FARYX
4.0 out of 5 stars Buen producto
Reviewed in Mexico on July 4, 2023
Verified Purchase
El producto me pareció bastante bueno y de buena calidad los materiales de la carcasa son de plástico pero las guardas son de metal, el laser se ve bien, el motor tiene bastante potencia, al realizar los cortes quedaron perfectos, solo no le doy las 5 estrellas ya que el empaque original llego muy golpeado por todos lados como si se les hubiera caido y la caja estaba de lado dentro de otra de Amazon que incluso solo traía un diurex transparente, eso no me gusto ya que en el viaje se va moviendo mucho, no se si en la aduana lo colocaron mal al revisarlo, pero lo demás me gusto mucho. =^.^=
