The Ryobi I have ran really rough and I think it may have had a hit out on me. I'm surprised I haven't lost any limbs.
I bought this Skil circular saw after previously having purchased two skil chainsaws. I was really happy with those chainsaws (so happy I bought two of the same one), so I decided to buy this circular saw as well in hopes that maybe I wouldn't lose any limbs.... And actually be able to make a clean cut... something the Ryobi couldn't do even if Bob Villa were using it.
It's so awesome and it's surprisingly quiet. I feel a lot safer using this saw, especially because it has a safety button. And I very much appreciate the laser.
I would buy this saw again, but I don't think I'll have to because the one I just bought seems high enough quality to last me a while. I would definitely recommend this saw to anyone considering buying a circular saw. It was also the best price.
Comes with a 24T Framing blade on it. I personally swapped for a 40T Spyder blade but I am loving it!

El disco que trae es de 24 pero hace cortes muy finos.
La volvería a comprar sin duda.
