What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this cordless cut-off tool for its impressive power, compact lightweight design, and versatility across metal, drywall, and other materials. Many highlight its ability to handle tough jobs like cutting stainless steel and hardened locks with ease, delivering professional-grade results without bulk. Reviewers commend the sturdy build, thoughtful engineering, and ease of use in tight spaces. A common concern is limited blade availability and rapid wear of replacement blades, with several recommending diamond-coated options. A few report isolated reliability issues or visibility challenges, though most consider the tool a must-have for quick, precise cuts.

Small saw but very effective

Would Recommend

When I first saw this I was very hesitant. But after buying it, I love it. It is very sturdy and easy to work with. You can easily cut metal with it.

20V › 12V

Would Recommend

DeWalt isn't my go to brand, but it is a 20V (18) compared to Milwaukee's M12. Got it at the same price so I am happy to have the Dewalt with more oomph.

Perfect to remodel bathrooms

Would Recommend

The DeWalt 20V Max XR cutoff tool is compact, powerful, and extremely handy for quick cuts. I used it to trim metal conduit and tile during a bathroom remodel, and it sliced through effortlessly with great control. The brushless motor and variable speed make it smooth and precise. Lightweight, durable, and easy to handle—an awesome addition to any toolkit!
