Review on Circular saw Makita 5008MG, 1800 W blue/silver by Adam Kaniuk ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Reliable purchase, guaranteed to be a good purchase.

I started to choose between the two firms Hitachi and Makita, but the first firm immediately lost. Firstly, Makita bribed me with the presence of a service center in my city. I wanted the most powerful saw for reasonable money and that at an angle of 45 degrees the cutting depth was more than 50 mm. This model fits me perfectly. I did not immediately notice the backlight. Helps a lot in low light. Pleased with the line ahead. There is no riving knife, but as it turned out, it was not needed, which makes the saw mobile. Holding the saw in your hands, you feel its pleasant heaviness and comfort. I use 2 years, the disk did not change. Great device! Made in Japan. I advise.

Pros
  • Power and a large number of revolutions cannot be defeated, no matter how hard I try to load the saw! Turnovers fall, but rushing like a tank. Powerful air flow perfectly blows sawdust ahead. Depth and tilt clamps are quick-clamping and reliable, do not require additional tools, very convenient! The protective cover works reliably, its mechanism is not clogged with sawdust. Not very heavy weight.
Cons
  • Does the Makita have flaws? At least this model does not have them!
