BLACK+DECKER 7-1/4-Inch Circular Saw with Laser, 13-Amp (BDECS300C)

This is a great power saw; the blade that came with it was hard to cut lumber with but the saw is so nice, i just went to Home Depot an bought a $5 Avanti 7 1/4" framing/construction saw blade with carbide on the tips of the blades. And it cuts through lumber like a knife going through soft butter! The motor is powerful and it's easy to operate (lightweight and easy to hang onto). It's a great saw for all my projects at a great price (cutting fence pickets to the right length and 2x4s for fence horizontal framing, cutting 2x4s to mount on the garage wall and put hooks in for hanging shovels, etc. This saw will last for years!

Works well, I like the laser feature. The blade it came with was not great, but after a replacement, no complaints.

This is a nice saw for the money. I purchased just the saw with no blade, but it came with an 18t blade anyway. I used it paired with a 24t Dewalt blade to cut some plywood and 2 x 4s. The saw cut great, didn't bog down, and the laser guide makes it easy to cut a straight line. It's perfect for projects around the house and is much lighter than my grandfather's old Black and Decker saw from the 80s that still works! I rated it 4 stars because the blade guard is made of plastic rather than metal.

This works just like my old one of 25 years which finally died, except that this one has a laser pointer on it. Today is the end of May 2024. I have used it for the first time now. I have not learned how to use the laser pointer, trying it for the first time the laser did not indicate where they should go when I follow the laser pointer. It did NOT cut along the measured line. I had to watch the line from behind the sawblade to see where the sawblade is Cutting.Amazon asks me to rate maneuverability. This is an interesting question because they saw is not very maneuverable to begin with. That is why I gave it one star.

Nice and easy. The laser guide was super helpful when cutting 4ft X 8ft sheets of wooden lattice which does not really lend itself to drawing a line and following. The laser lined up all the way down the lattice keeping me straight through wood, gaps, and all!Price was less expensive then comparable items that had the laser guide and the warranty is much better/longer. Also it came with a blade that worked fine for cutting 2X4's, fence planks, and the lattice. I couldn't be happier with the saw.

I couldn’t imagine how much easier it would be using a saw”just 4lbs. lighter” than my old B&D saw was until I used it on a DIY project...it was like the difference between night&day.My right hand and arm weren’t sore when I finished working.This lighter saw is easier to cut thru plywood and 2x4s thanks to its laser guide.I chose B&D based on its dependability(my old saw lasted nearly 20yrs of projects)....its lower price is definitely a bonus for this DIY woman.

Worked perfectly

Me gusta mucho esta cierra, muy cómoda de usar, el disco que trae no es de muy buena calidad pero es comprar uno bueno y ya. Buena potencia y cortes con mucha facilidad. El láser de guia no es muy funcional a menos que estés cortando piezas grandes (cortes largos) y en lugares sin demasiada iluminación, con mucha luz no se logra ver.Actualización: he tenido la sierra por mas de un año y hay un par de cosas que no funcionan bien, la guarda de protección del disco es plástica y se dobla hacia un lado al dejar la herramienta sobre la mesa, el mismo disco se ha comido. Además todo el sistema que sostiene la base es plástico lo que hace que al aplicar la mínima fuerza el disco cambie de posición y los cortes no salgan derechos. Estoy un poco decepcionado ya que no se pueden hacer trabajos que necesiten buena precisión.
