Purchased this to replace my 20 yr old Makita, and I like the new features, like the LED light, the depth of cut indicator, and especially the new thicker base which won't slip under a straightedge on long cuts. Also, the base is held with screws and bolts, rather than rivets, so it can be repaired/replaced if it gets bent. The weight of the new "magnesium" saw isn't much different than my old saw, but isn't an issue with me.

The saws carry box did not have the handle on it. They also shipped via FedEx requiring a signiture. FedEx refused too come up my driveway resulting in it taking 8 days longer to recieve the saw. I would have been better off driving 45 minutes to the hardware store. While it was new it was opened and package poorly as the carry case cannot be carried.

Makita makes very good tools and this model is no exception. This model has high torque at 15 Amps. It runs smooth and is pretty quite. I rate this one up with Dewalt, Rigid, Millwakee corded saws. It is above Craftsman, SkillSaw and Ryobi.

I love this saw. I've owned one before when I was a contractor. It's lite weight, and bullet proof. This one is refurbished which in my opinion is as better than new. You can trust it to be true to it's front sites, and easy to hold with one hand. My all time favorite saw. You can buy with confidence, you'll be glad you did.
