DEWALT DW369CSK Heavy-Duty 7-1/4-Inch Lightweight Circular Saw with High Strength Base Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I went for many years doing my hobby projects with the DeWalt 18v cordless trim saw. When the projects started getting bigger and bigger and I needed a bigger, corded saw I went right to DeWalt's site to see what was available. Being right handed and having used a left bladed saw for so long it was tough to buy a right blade. I almost went with their hybrid wormdrive with the left blade but after playing with one at the store, I figured it was too heavy and too much saw for my needs. Thus the DW369CSK, great power, ease of use and excellent quality I've come to expect from my DeWalt tools. It even made the switch to a right blade easier due to the wide line-of-sight area. It's even fairly light for full power sidewinder.
I looked at Milwaukee's left blade circ and almost went that route. Honestly, it was brand loyalty that keep me with the yellow saw. I am not dissapointed in the least, though. I only wish that DeWalt would get on the ball like Milwaukee and Porter Cable and offer a left and right bladed versions.

UPDATE: I had to come back and edit this review after a decent amount of use. For the most part, everything is fine but I have determinded that I just can't get this saw to cut perfectly square. I've messed with all the adjustments and I can only get it to about 89 degrees but not to 90. Close but not quite, as they say. For my needs, this is actually fine as I don't do any precision cutting with it, but for those that do, make sure to check it with a square and ruler before using. I've lowered it from 5 stars down to 3 as this could be a big bummer for those needing a perfect cut.
