Milwaukee. Bosch tools are not what they used to be, especially their cordless models.
Not saying Milwaukee is bad or anything but I have to give the nod to Bosch for reliability especially with the quality control of the recent Milwaukee's.

Although not popular in the US anymore, Bosch dominates europe and elsewhere. Also, their batteries are super reliable unlike the shitty 8ah/12ah Milwaukee variants.

Such a versatile tool, wish they made a wider mouth version even if it was just a bit less portable

Yeah def huge. But I guess so is pipe that large. Prior comment had asked about a larger version.
We use this 3-1/4 compact at work and it's a workhorse like most Milwaukee tools... Quick and clean cuts on conduit, strut, all thread, lfmc. The M12 version leaves a lot to be desired in my opinion. Honestly we have never had any issues with their batteries. I have 3 of their 12.0s at home (which I think are the most notorious) and thankfully no problems. Have about 25 various m18s batts across two our facilities, also no problem.. knock on wood.

I guess it's just that Milwaukee is just so widely available nowadays making it not only familiar to use across the board, but very easy to replace. Easy to accumulate a large fleet of batteries with all their combo deals tbh, we almost have too many now.

Appears this is dead, along with a couple other M18 + 8AH Forge battery deals. Priced $329 now.

Odd.. wonder if this was a price mistake, seems weird they'd do early black friday deals & only have this 'best' price on the first day. They also had this paired with just the 5AH battery for $259.

HD online has a "special buy of the day" listing. This item was on that listing and only available for the day.

In hindsight, yeah I suppose it was.. too much going on lately to keep it all straight. It's still weird that you could get this one with the 8AH Forge for only $5 more than the tired old 5AH though.

I got mine delivered today and holy shit it chewed through a 6in steel I beam that takes me 15min to cut with a grinder in under 2 minutes.

Absolutely amazing

Yep, got mine yesterday too, and it's exactly what I expected & was hoping for: seconds per cut vs minutes with an insanely noisy angle grinder. Less dust/debris, no sparks/fire danger, no having to flip the material to finish the cut.

I need to pick up some more blades... wish I knew someone locally to split a 25pk with.
