Review on DEWALT 6-1/2-Inch 20V MAX Circular Saw, Tool Only - Powerful Cutting Efficiency for Versatile Applications by Matt Weber

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Is this really DeWalt?

I bought these to replace a pair of corded and cordless professional saws in hopes I could get the precision and power needed to chew through 2x4 and 3/4 plywood. For this purpose it's really good, very strong and works as expected. i love the brake A few issues that broke my heart: 1) The lower blade guard handle was chewed deep in the packaging and probably bent in transition. Dewalt I appreciate that there is only paper in this package, but there must be a better way of packaging this. 2) I'm not sure who tightens the blade screw at the factory, but I tightened it heavily! There is no way to unscrew it (counterclockwise) with the tool provided. 3) Then I was ready to cut - where do I connect the vacuum? Okay, where's the trash can? Oh - there is none included. Wonderful. I'm probably not the target audience for this tool. Where can I download the STL file to print on a 3D printer? I love most Dewalt tools but this one definitely changed my expectations.
