Very powerful saw which cuts well, although I have not tried to rip a 2x4 yet... Easy to adjust cut depth with a Camlock. The blase supplied is very coarse and a better blade helps a lot with surface splintering.

Bought this to replace cordless Dewalt with warped baseplate and have only used it for one cut in plywood so far but cuts well. Have Bosch batteries already so a worthwhile purchase at the offer price with the left sided blade for versatility- my mains saw has blade on other side. Altogether a very solid feeling tool. I did notice however that the fence securing screw button did bind when baseplate pushed against a guide batten - I just removed it. There is slight disappointment that saw is incompatible with current Bosch FSN guide rail system but old system rails can be got on Amazon at a price.

I already have a number of Bosch professional tools. This one does not disappoint, well up to expectations. Good that their batteries from other professional range tools fits without problem, hence the purchase of this one "bare" No money wasted buying duplicates of chargers etc.

Very efficient saw. Great to be free of the cord. Base is solid (not pressed steel). Whole assembly feels well designed and put together. Narrow kerf saw cuts easily and the finish is as good as others I've used. No complaints so far.
