Customer Reviews

A 5 Star Cordless Saw!5
The BSS610 cordless saw is a 5 star winner!
The saw blade is of sufficient diameter, 6-1/2 inches that you can cut a 2x4 at a 45 degree bevel in one pass.
The saw has ample power. The two Lithium-Ion batteries and rapid charger keep you working continuously, as one in charging as the other is powering the saw.
The base shoe is a machined die cast light weight metal and is of the highest quality and finish.
This saw replaced my 7-1/4 Skill saw and with the blade on the left, as it is on worm-drive commercial saws, I actually find it easier to see what I am cutting as I am right-handed.
The carrying case is a great addition as it holds the charger, two batteries, saw, spare saw blades and rip fence.
This is a contractor quality saw for serious D.I.Y.ers.
I am very glad I now own this 5 star saw.
I would recommend this saw kit to any serious carpenter.

Great new tools5
I think the new saw is the greatest purchase I have made so far. The Makita cordless has performed beyond my expectations.
