This saw is incredible. I won't need another circular saw ever. I'm in the middle of framing up a room in our attic, and this thing has been great. The 4x batteries were well worth it.

I just got this last week. Have heard great things about it. Also have the m18 rear handle but have heard the makita is better.
This was my first makita purchase so I'm keeping the batteries.
Which rear handle do you like better? The Milwaukee or makita?

When I go to add to cart, it's one item. The saw and the extra batteries. How do I get just the saw?

I will say it is heavy at around 13 lb(with batteries) versus my old skilsaw that weighs in at around 10lbs. I got the rear handled version but may have been better off getting the top handle as the weight would be more controllable. feels very similar and probably a little bit lighter than the worm drive skill saws that I've held in the past. Though it is not a worm drive saw as the motor comes directly off the blade.
In the end you're essentially paying $50 for the saw and getting four 5 amp hour batteries for less than $10 an amp hour and you're getting a free dual charger that's probably worth 50 to 100 bucks by itself. Oh and a basic duffle bag.
