What Customers Are Saying
The product has a mixed performance. On the positive side, it is praised for its compact and lightweight design, making it easy to handle and use for small jobs. It is also considered powerful enough for tasks like cutting pipe, pruning trees, and installing cabinets. However, many customers report issues with the saw frequently cutting out or stopping, even with a fully charged battery. Some find it underpowered and unable to handle tougher materials without stalling. Overall, the saw seems suitable for light-duty, small-scale tasks, but may not be reliable or powerful enough for more demanding applications.

Would RecommendEasy to handle one handed. I got it mainly to trim shrubs like lilacs and forsythia. I trim his renewing - that is cutting big old stems out to make room for new smaller stems which allows the plant to remain young far longer than chopping the tips off. Hard to do this type of trimming with a chain saw. Takes a long time to use small hand saw. Only issue I had was after a hour and a half it just would stop. Decided it must be the battery even though it never slowed down like most battery too...

Nice saw
Would RecommendLight weight and easy to use. If you are cutting down branches, be prepared with multiple batteries. Love that I can use several devices with the same few rechargables.

Xtra xtra
Would Not RecommendDon't bother unless you want to get more 12v stuff. I own 18v xrp for over 20 years. And have been slowly converting to the lighter 20v lithium. I went to buy this mini saw and saw it was another battery... ok. But to buy just this tool would have cost me around $400. This saw has no battery, to buy batteries alone no charger OR buy another drill I don't need another drill. So I bought another brand that had battery and charger with it for less than what I was more than willing to pay for this t...
Excellent Mini Sawzall
Would RecommendThe 12V DeWalt version of the Sawzall is super light and can be operated with 1 hand, although I use 2 to ensure a straight cut. I wish it would have come with a storage/carry bag.
