4 out of 5 stars Worx like a charm   June 1, 2008
Andrew Duncan
My older circ saws were adequate for my needs. I always believed that the quality and sharpness of the blade was more important than the saw itself. That's still a truism worth following. But I've got to say the Worx saw makes me believe the saw makes a difference, too. This saw is light weight, has a well thought out ergonomic feel, has easy to use guards and guides and comes well packaged. Add a brake, and this saw would be perfect.

-very awkward to use
-visibility of cut line is poor
-quiet
-seems to have enough power
-the shoe is not straight if you are planing on using a guide as i do i would have not bought this saw as i use it to cut large panels for cabinet installs
-reviewed by popular mechanics as the worst saw in the review all they tell you say is that it was in the test
-case is hard to close and fit everything back in
-previous saws were hitachi and makita
-might have been better if this was my first saw so i could get used to
the "fluid feel"
i have been a circular saw for 10 years professionally



3 out of 5 stars Good Saw Poor Service   February 15, 2008

The saw is well thought out and a nice piece of equipment. Unfortunately Worx customer service and parts availability are nonexistent. I have been waiting for a dust extractor for over 8 months. I have been told it is still on backorder, and there is no date scheduled for restocking.

Bottom line - if anything breaks, you may as well consider the saw disposable.

So far this has been a really good saw. I was not familiar with the WORX brand so I didn't know what to expect. I was pleased to find that it wasn't a "cheap" product. I have used it on boards and cement. It is light, has plenty of power, and the blade is easy to change. I don't use a saw on a constant daily basis, so the ergonomic feature of the moving handle hasn't made any differance to me. You can lock that feature out if you don't want to use it. The case is bulky, but does provide nice protection for the saw. I checked around for deals elsewhere including Home Depot and Lowes, and nothing came close to the price I got on this 15 amp quality saw from Amazon.

This is a great saw. I bought a Bosch C10 and it is was not stable at all. I took it back. I am sure the more I used it the worse it would get.

I was at True Value and found a very good deal on this saw. Best features:

1. Cuts 2x material with ease.
2. Built very solid. The tilt has an extra fastener on the back side this help the solid feel.
3. It comes with a case.
4. 2 year warranty.
5. Saw dust goes out the exhaust were it supposed to.
6. Magnesium construction.

I have only used a little bit and more than impressed with this saw
