Great saw with a flaw [Posted on 2002-08-19] Powerful saw for heavy duty jobsite cutting, but noticed the one I bought didnt plunge cut very smooth (kind of bogged it down. Found that the blade wasnt square with the plate (I wouldve had to set the saw at about 2 degrees to cut square). I exchanged it for a new one, same problem. Checked out the display model at a local home improvement store, same thing. 3 strikes , its out
Flawed design [Posted on 2003-05-31] New design for quick adjustment to depth and bevel is flawed. It is not quick . Jams often.The standard table on previous 13 amp models still remains my choice. Either replace this new design or put back the old ones.
Another Makita Winner [Posted on 2003-07-18] I purchased this circular saw a couple weeks ago to replace my old Black & Decker in preparation for a fairly serious reconstruction of a termite damaged bay window job. It has performed beyond my expectations for the price range. Easy to use and nice clean cuts. Only my Bosch 10" Miter/Slide saw can upstage it, but I consider them equal for the tasks they were designed for. Most of the contractors I know will recommend Makita for a fine quality, dependable, and reasonably priced on the job circular saw. I must add my recommendation as well. Jerry Davis, Michigan
great saw [Posted on 2005-09-23] Very good saw, light , good blade visability, powerfull. would definitly buy again
Great Saw [Posted on 2006-03-20] I've been a framing carpenter for 28 years and the Makita 5007NHK is one of the best that I have used. It rips through a 2 inch board with ease. Adjustment screw for a true square cut.
Quick flip of the lever for bevel cuts up to 50 degrees. With this saw I have cut hardiboard, metal roofing, steel rebar, and concrete blocks. That proves how tuff this saw is.
