What Customers Are Saying
The product is a high-quality, powerful, and easy-to-use tool with a lightweight design, accurate depth and angle adjustments, and smooth cutting performance. Many customers consider it a significant upgrade from their previous saws. However, a small number of customers reported issues with alignment, blade parallelism, and unreliable electric brake. The overall consensus is that it is an excellent circular saw, especially for DIY and home improvement projects, with a balance of power, precision, and ergonomics.

Would RecommendI got this over a month ago and it is a heavier circular saw, but it's nice because I feel like that helps me keep the cut straighter! Takes a little to get used to (I am a female, so it's a bit heavier for me). But I love it!

Loved the first one so much I bought a second
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My first Dewalt Circular saw was an older model with the plastic shoe. I still have that one and use it often but like the upgrade to the aluminum shoe. This saw is very lightweight but durable, you can use it all day without dreading picking it up one more time. I've never had any issues with it cutting straight and when you set it at a certain depth or angle it stays put. There's plenty of power to get through any wood as long as you make sur...

Excellent power, control, all with safety built in
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been a fan of DeWALT products for years working in construction. It wasn't until I purchased this Circular Saw did I really understand what I was missing out on. Absolute power in my hands, not to mention an excellent grip that feels like it forms to my own hand. It's a very balanced and full of torque and power. I would highly recommend anyone to use this product and I'm so glad I finally went out and got one for myself to use on my home ...

Smooth cutting
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased the 7 1/4" circular saw about 3 years ago, and I love how little effort it is to make my cuts. It is also easy to adjust the depth and angle.

Rock Solid Reliability
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My dad bought this model almost 15 years ago. It’s a workhorse and is still running great. It was my turn to buy one and this is the same quality. But they made it smaller and lighter! If you need a circular saw for wood or stone. This is the one you want.

Great saw
Would RecommendAwesome saw. Put a Diablo demo blade on, and that thing goes through wood as fast as you can push it
Light in Weight Heavyweight Cutting
Would RecommendGreat saw for the price. Fairly lightweight for a circular saw, but cuts with speed and accuracy. Excellent safety brake so the blade does not continue to spin after the cut is finished.

Nice compact saw, but the brake is unreliable
The same would be 5* product if the main competitive feature - active break - would work reliably. Half the time the saw doesn't stop the blade. I could have had just as nice of a saw for hall the price without the active break. Also mine is Made in USA, but the quality is still poor.

Great saw for the price!
Would RecommendThe brake is a great feature. No need to worry about cutting the cord.

Great Saw for Home DIY
Would RecommendThe DEWALT 7-1/4-in Corded Circular Saw with Brake Aluminum Shoe and Soft Case has plenty of power for the do-it-yourselfer. A basic saw with the features you need for light to medium service jobs. If you're building a house, you might want to consider a construction grade saw.

Wow what a difference
Would RecommendFinally decided to retire my old, loud Craftsman. What a difference. Lighter, quieter - I might get to hang out with the cool guys if I carry this around!!
