Pros & Cons
Pros
Avid dewalt owner. What a fantastic little saw. The two tools are equivalent in operation. There's been a revolution in power tools and it's called batteries.
Strong motor and adjustable speed lets you cut precisely and comfortably. Comes with attached allen wrench so you can adjust the stop or add a third party plate.
Works like a champ. It handles great. Saw seems ok. It works great and performs as expected.
Tools are magnificent in a sheltered world where they are treated like the jewelry they are. It's not unusual to see a trade on a ladder with an array of power tools, grinder, worklight and a portaband strewn among the pipes and conduits around them. ... Read More
Light on the dewalt is nice and the hook is handy when you work at a tri-stand. It adjusts the depth of the backstop so you can cut larger items. Good visibility of the cutting face and weight of cutter assists gently.
Cons
This expensive piece of junk lasted two weeks before it turned into a 13 pound beast of burden. I travel with my tools and this expensive item of junk.

This thing is extremely well made and i have used it quite a bit more than i had expected to.
Brushed tool it is loud and the included blade was welded together off about a 32nd of an inch resulting in loud thunk on every revolution.
Extremely unsafe, can't be used in an osha compliant safety environment.
Price
Got it at a good price on amazon and so far it is a beast.
For the money, this band is great.
The first time used paid for itself.
Shipping
Delivered on time and was exactly what i ordered
Received it sooner than anticipated and couldn't tell it from new.
Competitiveness
I did extensive research before buying and this dewalt model is considered one of the best.
There is a competing company with a 5 year warranty for the same price.
The blade still seems as sharp as brand new.

I never noticed this but when you use the light function its focused in just a way that the shadow it casts of the blade is where it will be cutting
