DEWALT FLEXVOLT 60V Circular Saw, 7-1/4-Inch (DCS577B)

This product has great performance, and great battery life . Easy to use and a great value. Portability is good and a good size.

Solid Beast of a saw. Powers through pretty much anything you throw at it. Make no mistake though, this is not a one handed reach out on a roof kind of saw. Love it though

Update: biggest issue is it absolutely trashes fully charged 60v 6ah batteries. I am demo-ing a 10×20 deck and it only takes (4) 10 foot passes through 5/4 decking to kill the battery. If your lucky you might get five. I only own four of the 6ah so it made the saw useless by mid morning. I dont know if a 12ah will fit in this saw but it needs it or better power management.

I’ve had the dewalt 6 1/2 cordless saw for years and even got the 6amp flexvolt batteries last year which gave it more power than the 4amp batteries decided to upgrade this year to this 7 1/4 saw it has so much more power. Bit more weight but totally manageable with one hand like everyone really uses it. I build decks and fences so I’m moving around alot not having to keep moving cords to get the power of a corded saw is great for me for ripping boards down. The only thing bad I have to say about this saw is the safety location its awkward to hit with your thumb would be much better with a button on the back of the handle easier to push or pull down or just a on/off safety switch instead of off to the side so much.

Works great cuts actually. It’s heavy but I like that about it. Has a good hook for hanging

El producto llegó impecable, pensé que por ser de exportación, llegaría el paquete algo dañado pero llegó en muy buen estado tanto el producto como la caja, es nuevo.

A little heavier than a corded saw, while using with the 9ah battery, but this Saw is as powerful as my corded wormdrive saws. You can rip lvl, 2×12,s, rip multiple pieces of plywood at a time, 9ah battery’s give you hours of use, I would make sure you always have a second battery,

I was curious about a blade left circular saw, there were so many professionals that act like it is an absolute necessity. So I figured I would give it a try with DeWalts Flexvolt as I already have batteries from the Flexvolt 60v Sidewinder. First things first, this saw is VERY powerful, more powerful then any circular saw I have ever seen. It cuts extremely smooth with no resistance pushing forward. All of my cuts were dead on and the saw was just begging for more.
Now for the blade left orientation, to me its not really a big deal, I feel like I can cut fine with blade right or blade left. However a few times I accidentally grabbed the saw as if I were going to cut left handed (which I’ve never done before) because I am so used to the blade being on the opposite side. But people act like blade left is the best thing since sliced bread, and to be honest I do not think it is a necessity. Blade right is perfectly fine if that is what you are used to, but I feel like I can cut fine with either. Having said that, there are instances that you may run into where its good to have a blade left saw or a blade right saw, so I am going to keep it to have the best of both worlds. The saw is great, and is definitely better then the original Flexvolt Sidewinder. Though this is not a true worm drive saw, its more powerful then 90% of the worm drive saws out there. I’ve read a lot of complaints about the weight, these people better grow some guns because this saw is not that heavy, I can easily work all day with this thing and I am not really a big guy, 5’11/average build and I have no problem lugging this thing around. I love the smaller profile shoe compared to the sidewinder which is common among worm drive saws as there is less surface area which means less friction and resistance but also means it is not as stable as a bigger shoe saw, but with practice you will be fine. All of the guides and settings are easy to read and adjust, I especially like that the 0 degree cut line has a notch which I prefer then just a line like most saws have. Cannot really speak to battery life yet, but have had no issues so far. All in all it feels very solid, the only thing that felt a little flimsy to me was the safety switch, kinda felt like it may start getting stuck or something in the future, maybe not but it did feel cheap. If you are on the fence about staying right blade or switching to left, I say stick with right blade, if your just in the market for a circular saw and do not care about blade orientation then BUY THIS SAW.
