Customer Reviews:

Difficult to rate.... [Posted on 2007-07-09]
I was very disappointed with Amazon on this one. The unit I received was clearly used. Worse, the shoe was slightly bent, and it seems that the motor was loose in the casing. The feel of the saw was also disappointing though. I chose this, and a Milwaukee 6390-21, and the Mil was clearly superior in feel. Unfortunately, I can't rate its (Hitachi) operation because I returned it and kept the Milwaukee.

I tried not to mention this, but the mint green color was almost toy-like. The old industrial green that they used previously was much better.

Great SAW!!!! [Posted on 2008-03-04]
GREAT SAW. 3 second Electric Brake. Nice even feel. Very rugged and quiet compared to some other CS's

Great saw [Posted on 2008-07-06]
I can't find anything I don't like about this saw. Good power, nice feel, easy to change blades. I couldn't find any other saw that performs this well in this price range and has an electric brake. Overall a great saw.
