Ratings & Reviews for Bosch 18-volt 2 -Amp 6-1/2-in Cordless ( Battery Not Included and Charger Not Included)

Fantastic small saw.

I built a horse fence 600’ around my yard and cut everything in the field.

Struggles to handle any cutting

I bought the saw based on the positive reviews. I'm very disappointed with the performance. Trying to cut a 2x6, this saw struggles a lot. Runs through batteries very quickly. I'm going to go buy a corded 15 amp...love all Bosch cordless tools, but not this cordless saw.

Works great, wish it were even smaller / lighter

I bought this for cutting OSB sheathing. Much easier and lighter than my corded Makita. I got this mainly because all my cordless tools are Bosch 18V. So for battery compatibility. For cutting OSB, I would have preferred an smaller /lighter saw That said, this saw does the job.

Junk

Bought this saw cause it felt good in my hands, fully charged it cut 4 4x4 posts and was dead!!!! Major POS... Got a Milwaukee and I can use it for all day long... Sorry Bosch, this saw is garbage

Very pleased

This is the first battery powered circular saw I have used. I was very pleasantly surprised at how well it cut through 2 X 4 material and the 19/32 OSB I was using. Obviously, it will not power through material like a large corded saw, but it does a more than adequate job. I am very glad that I made this purchase.

Bosch cordless tools are incredible

I love all of my Bosch cordless tools. They are lightweight, feature-rich and powerful enough to do any of the jobs I have. Good enough for any DIY projects I have.

Bosch 18V Cordless Circular Saw

Decent for most jobs around the house, light enough and fairly well balanced

Great saw

Lots of power and a great trigger. Very solidly built.

Great saw

I have 2 of these and use them regularly. It is powerful enough to do small jobs around the house. I probably use the Bosch cordless jigsaw more often, but sometimes you just need a circular saw. It is lighter than most brands, which is a big selling point for me as well.

Great Little Saw

This little saw is amazing. Lightweight, yet has enough power to get the job done. I have their drill set, so not coming with the battery wasn't an issue for me. I would definitely recommend this saw and would certainly purchase it again.

Decent for light work

Overall good saw especially considering how this is an 18v cordless. Not the saw for heavy cut work, but good for smaller on the spot type work. Wish it had a metal guard and included a rip fence- this should be included, this is a bare tool after all.

Great little saw

I was looking for a battery powered saw and came across this bosch. I'm not a builder but I do woodworking as a hobby. I can tell that it has plenty of power and will run very long with my 6ah battery. I like the brake on it as well. I will need to get used to the safety switch on top and the blade on the left side. Im right handed and although it is nice to see where the blade cuts it is safer to have your keeper on the widest part of the shoe. No matter how you choose to cut as long as you ha...

Very powerful cordless circular saw

I'd been eyeing this saw for a while, since I already had an 18V Bosch drill and impact driver. When it went on sale, I jumped on it. This is a very powerful cordless saw. Very happy with it, although it would have been even better if it included a laser guide.

Fantastic cordless saw

I am surprised that most reviews on this saw are from Bosch.com and not Lowes. I had the "green" brand cordless 6 1/2 saw and it was okay at best. Lacking power and stalling, I needed a better tool. I opted for the Bosch since I have other cordless tools by Bosch. What a difference. Better build, more solid, well thought out, but mostly, power! Absolutely love it. It did cut the same exact 2x6 that the "green" saw could not with the same blade. I am a DIY person, but don't confuse this saw - it ...

Saw works great

I have only had it for a few days,saw cuts though deck boards and 2x6 lumber very easy.

Amazing saw for finish work and cutting OSB

Use this saw almost everyday works great for cutting OSB sheeting and for doing finish work. Kills the battery when you start using it for framing

Great for a cordless saw

Adjustments and saw baseplate are very rigid and all metal. Some saws are flimsy and do not hold 90° very well, this saw works great. As someone who already has multiple batteries and chargers for the Bosch line, this saw made perfect sense, and serves the purpose of being able to cut sheet goods or trim without dragging around a cord or having access to power. Being that it is cordless, the blade makes a huge difference to drag. The blade that came with it works fine, but I suspect some oth...
