Type of review

There was a choice between Makita HS7601, (there is also an option with a case) 1200 W, Makita 5008MG, 1800 W and BOSCH GKS 190, 1400 W. The first one is rather weak, although it is possible to put it on a tire. The second, Makita 5008, has a lot of dope, but . you can put it under the table (warranty flies), although there is also no possibility of installing at least on a tire + the price is high (11.000 RUR) . The choice fell on the average price scale, wire length, power and depth of cut…

Pros
  • Quite good power (1400W) for a manual circular. There is protection against accidental activation. There is a sawdust outlet. Power cord, rubberized 4 meters. With a 190mm disk, washed down at 45 degrees = 50mm. There is a motor brake. The parallelism of the sole to the disk is adjustable! (see second photo). Adjustment bolt, near the lamb of the guide.
Cons
  • Slightly clumsy assembly by Chinese workers at the factory - the bolts are slightly poked (not all) - the bolt tightening force is incorrectly selected (hello servicemen, then prove that you are not a sheep). There is no case. There is no way to put it on the tire right away. Change the native disc (16 teeth) immediately, at least for the simplest eco Wood series - 48 teeth (it costs about 750-800 rur). Disks of the Standard or Expert series are more expensive, but the quality is higher. You can take and immediately SMT. Although, the disks themselves are often also made in China. Nothing surprising.))) The same Makita HS7601X1 is equipped with one native disk (Japan) + the second China. They show that the quality is the same everywhere. It would be nice to be like this everywhere and in everything .

Just a terrible product, very upset.

The view from the inside, just when sawing, smoke went out, sparks, then a flash, the plastic guides for the stator winding melted, and they also ground the rotor, at a price of 7 spare parts from 5, therefore, to throw away. Judge for yourself. By the wear of the rotor in the area of ​​​​the brushes, it can be seen that the saw is almost new . a year warranty but it would not help either, they would blame the owner 100%, although the saw is professional and you can saw for 8 hours a day .

Pros
  • Cutting depth
Cons
  • Price

Just super, it's beautifully made, I'm very happy with it.

They took it as a gift for rare housework, I think that it will completely cope with its tasks for many years. Registered on the site Bosch professional and received an extended warranty for 3 years. messed up and brought a damaged box, otherwise everything is OK. There will be additions, I will write.

Pros
  • Brand, price (managed to buy for 6400), cutting depth 70mm, at an angle of 45% cutting depth 50mm. Lots of adjustments. Works quite smoothly, without extraneous sounds.
Cons
  • The play of the guide relative to the fastening is rather heavy.

Just super, the product is made wonderfully, very satisfied.

Good quality flooring for home non-professional use. Quality build, no backlash. Flat sole, two attachment points is a big plus. Ideal angles are 90 and 45 degrees. Relatively quiet, very smooth operation. It does not heat up during operation, dust removal is normal. The main thing is not to overload. I recommend

Pros
  • Workmanship Price-quality ratio Ease of use Soft long cable
Cons
  • No cons

The quality exceeds all expectations, I recommend to buy.

Without a certificate (expired certificate) the price should be at least 2 times cheaper! Please understand and give a comment about what I should do - return the goods or what! ?

Pros
  • Can't say because I haven't used it yet. And so - the price, convenient adjustment
Cons
  • Expired Certificate! It turns out that they brought me a product with an expired certificate ! (Photo attached)

For me, the choice was very difficult, and after reading reviews about this model and about the beveled plate, I was a little upset. Thought and thought, but still ordered. I examined it for a long time, I did not find any defects. And now, having filed a bunch of different wood materials, I can say with confidence that I was not mistaken in my choice. If you think, then don't think, take it. But of course, when inspecting, pay attention to the 90-degree location of the disk relative to the…

Pros
  • Snatched at a nice price tag, very powerful, lies well in the hand, cuts exactly at 90 degrees, cuts well with a complete disc
Cons
  • As long as everything suits

A valuable purchase, some advantages!

I took for the construction of a house and a summer house, and a fence for manual work to help the end with a pull. Coupon price - a gift, thanks to -market.

Pros
  • Brand, quality, cord 4m, blocking from accidental activation, cutting depth at 90 and 45 degrees and much more.
Cons
  • For me, no.

Best price for this product, will buy more!

but if you do not need accuracy like me, then the circular is just super. Saws quickly, without chips and great effort. The disk included is good (if you don’t cut nails))

Pros
  • Powerful, Bosch, drank 7 cm cleanly cuts without chips.
Cons
  • has a little difficulty setting the bar to 0-45 degrees, when the bolt is tightened, it shifts by 1 degree

Absolutely unusable product, not suitable for use.

Very disappointed in the quality of "Bosh". Apparently I got such an example. Its pros: Power, long cord, cut control through the sole, cut at an angle of 45 Cons below: It stopped turning on after 10 boards and two bars across, I didn’t even have time to build a canopy, while I was working very good impressions and here it is, only the construction began.

My second circular, before that it was black + decker, burned down. I read a lot of reviews about saws in the budget segment, and chose Bosch. Everyone likes the saw, it is an indispensable assistant in household work. 150 timber cut lengthwise? - no problem) )

Pros
  • Power, depth of cut. The length of the supply cable.

Nice product, happy with my purchase and may buy again.

I sawed a 100mm resinous timber from both sides at full cut, everything is brisk and like clockwork, the main thing is not to overload! )

Pros
  • Build quality, power, ergonomics, cord
Cons
  • There is no case, the disc is not aligned (the angle is not exact 90)

Excellent quality, absolutely not expected for such a price.

I bought a disc "construct wood bosch" designed for boards with nails and concrete residues (it was necessary to saw this) - and it’s true, it saws, it doesn’t notice 100 nails. Its pros: powerful, complete with a normal disk, though only 16 teeth, but it cuts smoothly without scuffing. Not very heavy for that kind of power. Cons: not too light for jewelry work, but it is not intended for this

The quality is at the level, I am satisfied with everything.

Definitely the best device in its price range. one of the most affordable "blue" Boschs. thanks to various little things (deep cut at an angle, the presence of depth marks, a good sole), work turns into pleasure. Get him before he runs away! ))) Has some pros: powerful. reliable. among classmates for the price - one of the easiest. good wood disc included. the only one in its price category takes 50mm at 45 degrees. made from quality materials. precise adjustment of the depth of cut on the…

A great option for this money, I definitely recommend it!

Very satisfied. Different pros: Powerful saw, cuts deep, deeper than competitors. With good equipment - clean, smooth, without beats. Another would be a smooth start, so as not to jerk. Satisfied. Has some cons: No. For this price - fire! Well, maybe add a soft start and a groove for the bus. It would be completely out of competition.

Not a bad product, quite normal quality.

There is no additional rigidity added to the saw as a result of its attachment to the sole. It is required to use a caliper to check the parallelism of the disk to the sole and, if necessary, "bend" the rear hinge in order to achieve accurate cutting (precision greater than or equal to +/-1 mm). I'm not sure, maybe I'm being very critical, and perhaps this saw is not intended for use in jewelry work, but I work in the furniture industry, and I require a high level of accuracy. In most cases…

Pros
  • Plus Power. This is the most significant benefit. Beast machine. When run through a quick feed, 15mm plywood slices like cardboard. Two layers of 15 mm plywood, or two cardboard boxes stacked on top of each other. Using an aluminum disk with 80 teeth and a sharpening angle of -5 degrees on a Duralumin 6 mm sheet is also simple. To be honest, I don't talk much about things like pine boards, chipboard, or laminate because this saw makes quick work of all of them. In general, during the course of a year of use, I was unable to come across an application for her in which there was insufficient power. Sadly, I don't have any beech on hand to test it out on a 3" board made of beech, but the overall build quality is extremely impressive. It fits nicely in the palm of your hand, and the start lock is constructed in such a way that it is resistant to inadvertent pinching. The mechanics are also of a high grade, as evidenced by the fact that they do not produce any extraneous noise; instead, the only sounds that can be heard are the roar of the engine and the sound of the disk. The blockage of the shaft is also designed in a reasonable manner; it is difficult to press it on purpose, and it is hard to press it accidently while moving. + The extent of the cut. 70 millimeters is adequate for all situations. If you take out the lower shell and replace it with a disc that is 200 millimeters in diameter, the height will be 75 millimeters.
Cons
  • - Stamped sole (not cast!). - No soft start. - No arch support. Sawdust is dispersed throughout the area in an even layer within a five-meter radius by the fan, which is meant to clear the area of sawdust so that it is not in the line of sight. - The advantages of connecting a vacuum cleaner have been fully nullified by the preceding paragraph. Everything disperses far before it reaches the location where the vacuum cleaner is connected, therefore the advantages are nullified. - The detachable coupling used to connect the vacuum cleaner is pretty flimsy and has a tendency to come loose at the worst possible time. - Finding acceptable disks with a diameter of 30 millimeters for the disk and a diameter of 190 millimeters for the outer ring is quite challenging for some reason. The majority of 190 OD discs have 20 bores, while the majority of 30 bores are either 160 or 210mm rims. At the very least, I would like to have the option to purchase separately replaceable support bushings in a variety of bore diameters, including 16, 20, 22, 30, and 32 millimeters. In the end, it turns out that not only are they not part of the set, but they also do not occur anywhere in the natural world. It is necessary for us to find a turner and place our orders with him. It is to one's advantage that the support sleeve can, at the very least, be removed.

Bad quality, not worth the spent money.

After two meters of cutting an ash board with a thickness of 45 millimeters, the cut started to smoke and shine. It used to build speed, but now all it does is smoke whenever you turn it on. It is a waste to invest seven thousand dollars and then obtain another three thousand for repairs.

The quality is top notch, be sure to try it.

Using this saw was a very enjoyable experience for me. I began by sawing blocks and constructing a lattice (also known as a pergola) on the porch on the very first day. The use of a saw can be simplified significantly with the assistance of a number of fundamental tools. Conduct an internet search. Reduce each one to no more than ten minutes, and the time spent toiling away will feel like a breeze in comparison. Has pros: Lightweight, effective, and rather quiet for its power.

All is well, liked the product, didn't buy it for nothing.

It was the first time in my life that I worked with a disk; my experiences were favorable; I sliced a furniture board (planked) like butter and, in principle, evenly (hands are crooked; well, I didn't saw it before); in a nutshell, the disk is an essential accessory for the jigsaw. We need a vacuum cleaner since it makes the dust much more manageable (at times). Because the disk that is included for sawing floorboards and beams, laminate, and thin attractive things is incompatible with the…

Pros
  • The usual suspect is Bosch. Enough for the time being.
Cons
  • In the course of working for five minutes on the board, a hexagon was discovered attached to the case (it had fallen out by itself) or not kept there; alternatively, it may have fallen under the disk had the worker been inattentive. The protective cover does not have a lock of any kind. The attachment to the vacuum cleaner does not hold very well; it is constantly falling off, despite the fact that it is essential.

Wonderful quality, one hundred percent satisfied!

I chose between Makita and Bosch, did not lose. I bought it to burn firewood in the garage, and in the summer to build a house in the country. With the first, I coped with a bang, before that I sawed with a jigsaw. These are not conveyable sensations of how quickly it cuts, but the most indiscriminate in thickness (up to 2 cm), whether it be a board or plywood, sometimes hammered together, just sawed in pieces, just to fit into the furnace. Lightweight, as he sawed with one hand and held with…

Pros
  • Convenience, power, ease of use
