Whether you’re building a fence or a raised garden bed, a circular saw, which lets you cut through materials like wood, plastic, and even metal,is pretty much an indispensable tool. While there are both corded and cordless varieties, a cordless design is the best for yard-related work since you’ll be able to use the tool even if you don’t have direct access to a power outlet.
There are numerous contenders, from Makita to Ryobi, for cordless circular saws, but one that really stands out on Home Depot’s website is the DeWalt 20V MAX Cordless Circular Saw, which has received a whopping 7,277 five-star reviews. Another testament to the quality of this product is that 91% of people who purchased it recommend buying it.
The circular saw is designed with a powerful 20-volt motor that delivers 5,150 RPM, providing enough power to cut through tough material. It features a rubber over-molded comfort grip that allows you to use the saw for an extended period of time. The product also comes with a 6 1/2-inch carbide-tipped blade that ensures you’re able to make precision cuts through two times the material at 45- and 90-degree angles.
While this product is pretty straightforward to use and reliable, one of the downsides, according to a few reviews, is that the battery life could come in the way of longer projects. Despite that, with some planning, you should be able to use this circular saw for a range of DIY projects. You can purchase it on The Home Depot‘s website for $99.
