I’m a woman in my 60s and sometimes it’s hard to find tools that fit my hands and are not too heavy for me to use. This little saw is perfect. It cuts like nobody’s business. It’s easy to handle and the weight is great.

One thing my father did not like about a jigsaw it does not come with a battery or the battery charger so we have no idea of his babies going to work or not I have to order the battery separately and three more days I will receive it and right now we cannot use it that's not good 🤪🤪 I give it five star we received the battery charger and the battery and it works like a charm now my father is happy thanks to amazon.com for making it happen 👍🏻😎👍🏻

I bought the less expensive one. The one without the battery and charger. It also came without the a blade which the description says was included. So first thing I need to do was install a blade. Luckily I had ordered a spare when I ordered the saw. Installing the blade was awkward at best. I've been changing all types of saw blades for 50+ years so I'm not new at it. It has a blade lock, very nice, works well. The shoe plate adjusts up and down for depth of cut, very nice and expected. It comes with an onboard Allen wrench to loosen or tighten the blade bolt, very nice and convienant. The difficult part is sliding the blade up onto the spindle. after rotating the blade guard up all the way, I still had to actually force the blade up into place onto the spindle. The blade has to slide through the shoe plate and under the guard until it slides up far enough the center hole will fit ove the spindle shaft. This is normal, however on this saw you have to slightly flex the blade to get it under the blade guard and then actually force it the rest of the way up until the center hole drops onto the spindle. Take caution doing this, saw blade teeth can be very sharp and will cut flesh. I put the blade on several times. Rotating the blade guard and moving the shoe plate in all positions without finding an ideal postion to make the blade slide on easily. After finally getting the blade installed I went to work testing the rest and it all worked well. I cut multiple pieces and types of wood from 2 x 4's to plywood and white oak. Both ripping and crosscutting. If you are cutting large sheets of plywood or MDF, support them with 2 x 4's or sheet foam so they don't bind as you go through the cut. If you have to stop part way through the cut, back the saw up slightly before restarting it. That will keep it from binding on start up. This is normal procedure for any saw, corded or battery powered. Corded saws will also bind when jammed into a piece of wood before starting the blade up. The saw has other nice features such as a hight gauge etched on the blade guard so you can set the depth of cut to the approximate depth needed. I recommend setting the blade to just below the thickness of the piece your cutting. Especially when cutting sheet goods resting on 2 x 4's or even foam. Supporting both sides of the cut is very important to keep the cut from binding or splinttering as the cutoff side starts to sag or falls from gravity. This is the first circular saw I've had with the blade on the left and it does make it easier to watch the cut line although I usually opt for using a guide for cuts over a few inches, so using a guide with the blade on the left will take some getting used to for me. I like to rough cut my sheet goods into more managable size pieces with a circular saw before final cutting to size on the table saw or band saw. I haven't used it enough yet to comment on battery life but I have several 4 amp hour batteries so change out is not a problem and I suspect I will be able to slice up a sheet of ply without having to do so. All in all I like the saw, except for the blade changes.

Well what can I say it is a B&D product and whether anyone likes to admit it or not, they still make pretty darn good tools after all these years, I realize most will say this is not for a major heavy duty job site in construction, and maybe that is true, BUT for the handy man job around your home or doing small maintenance projects or to have to carry in truck for small jobs you cannot go wrong with this circular saw plus it can use your 20 volt batteries from your outdoor lawn and garden cordless tools, a money saver on the extra batteries and chargers.It works wonderfully and is very accurate in its cuts, it is small blade or 5.5 inches but hey it gets the job done on many projects for the handy man. I highly recommend it, easy to use, lightweight and very durable with great clean cuts.

I was so pleased to buy this circular saw because I had an extra 20 volt battery that I got with my . It comes with a 5.5 inch circular blade that is very appropriate for most general projects around the house. This saw probably isn't going to replace your AC powered 7.25 inch circular saw for big projects. But for me, this is just what I wanted to be able to go about anywhere without needing a AC power outlet. It is heavier weight than I expected - very robust appearance and has a great feel in your hand. At first I thought it was a 7.25 inch circular saw, but apparently I've forgotten since I sold off all my tools ten years ago. I haven't tried to see how long the battery will last yet. I have a total of four 20 volt batteries that fit it, so I'm not concerned. One of my 20 volt batteries is a 4 Amp Hour battery. I need the 4 Amp Hour battery for the trimmer and even then, sometimes I have to switch over to one of my other 20 volt batteries when the 4 Amp Hour battery is depleted.I am very pleased that Black & Decker has standardized on 20 volt batteries. It is really annoying to have a wide variety of tools from the same manufacturer and none of the batteries are interchangeable. A 20 volt lithium battery should be able to power most everything around the house. I have one Black and Decker 36 Volt blower that I already owned and I'm keeping it because I need two blowers (one for my wife and one for me). I am up to seven Black & Decker tools that use the same 20 volt batteries.
