The only saw better than this is it's twin, the HD77 [Posted on 2006-02-12]
I work construction and do plenty of research on tools. Skil currently makes less then par products, but with this exception. This saw is the industry standard. I see the MAG77 and the regular HD77 on every constructon site. I like the HD77 because it is a little heavier then the MAG77 due to the casing, which means no kickback and a stonger, more solid feel. Both saws are incredible and either purchase is an investment. Buy this saw if you plan on cutting a lot of lumber.
The trimmed weight is HUGE at the end of the day. [Posted on 2006-12-22]
I have owned several Skill saws (worm drives) and this is my first time buying the MAG. I have used them a lot on the job site, unfortunately they were not mine. Even when my heavy saw was in front of me, I would still gravitate to the light MAG. I will never go back. Especially since my table on my last saw got all bent up, which seems to be the common complaint about this MAG.
Fantastic saw [Posted on 2007-11-05]
This is a serious machine. Forget about what you think about "circular saws", this weekend I was trimming (2) 3/4 sheets of plywood at a time, and it seemed as if it were cutting through thin air.
I am very impressed; keep in mind that it is quite heavy, starts with a fair amount of torque, and cuts aggressivley, so make sure you eat your spinach.
Great Saw!!! [Posted on 2007-12-11]
This saw lives up to all of the expectations. It has a smooth start, and a consistent rip.
I've used cheap plastic saws before, and this one puts them in their place.
The other reviewers weren't joking when they say that you'll be able to give this saw to your grand-kids someday. Hands down, this is the nicest saw that I've ever used!
Some say it too heavy, but some people are just wimps [Posted on 2007-12-12]
While newer cordless models in circular saws are all the rage, and in their defense they are getting more powerful each year, nothing even comes close to the HD77M. The time tested worm gear design gives an order of magnitude more usable cutting power than either cordless or conventional direct drive saws. The durability of these also means that you will never have to but another saw again, just be sure to keep the gear oiled.
