Pros

Reliable product from a reputable name. Safe to handle but enough power for most chores. Use it for building a deck.



Cons

The only thing nice about this circular saw is its lightweight and good handle design. Unfortunately the saw is too weak to cut through my 1/4” plywood subfloor. Having the plate connected to the blade cover makes for a flimsy design.

Porter cable should be embarassed to put their name on it. Shameful, truly. Item is too expensive.

Quality


The saw is a very good product.


I am happy with it and there are no cords.


I am disappointed with the cutting power of this saw.


The standard ones that come with the drill/driver sets will give you a few cuts and then are dead.

Price


Great price definitely, could use a bit more power.

Shipping


I would definitely order from you again because you ship the saw very fast to my location.
