20 best circular saws

If you need the cheapest circular saw, then it is in front of you. This is the cheapest product on the market. Great for home and small woodworking. It is small, since the attractive price tag here is explained by mediocre technical characteristics. Motor power is only 1200 watts. The maximum disc size is 160 millimeters, which makes it possible to cut to a depth of 52 mm. But the speed is just crazy, 5.5 thousand. In this segment, the figure is very high and it partially compensates for the power. Difficult, harder sections, this saw must pass at speed, which in turn negatively affects the motor itself.

In this case, the Whirlwind company focused specifically on the household segment.For the home, this is a great option, provided you just need to cut wood or plastic from time to time. It is not recommended to overload this tool. Well, there are no additional options. All work will have to be done by eye.

As a rule, an inexpensive circular saw looks more like a toy than a full-fledged tool with which you can cut wood. The lower the price, the lower the motor power, and this is the main indicator for any tool. Now we have a budget model, but on board is one of the most powerful 1700 watt units. With such a saw, you will not experience difficulties in work. She can easily cope even with hard material and at 4.5 thousand revolutions she will pass it as quickly as possible.

And here many will have a question why such a powerful saw is also inexpensive at the same time. The secret is in ergonomics and visual appeal. It seems that the manufacturer simply forgot about these factors. But no, this is a distinctive feature of almost all Caliber products. They simply do not focus on external attractiveness. And if you can still come to terms with this, then it’s more difficult with convenience. It will be difficult to work for several hours without stopping with such a saw.

The best circular saw, like any other tool, must combine quality and reliability with convenience. This model meets all these requirements, and therefore got into our rating. Technically, this is a fairly standard saw.It is suitable for both home and semi-professional use. The disk rotates at a speed of 5 thousand revolutions per minute, and its size is 190 millimeters. The maximum cutting depth without an angle of inclination is 65 millimeters, and the entire structure weighs almost 5 kilograms.

But the main advantage of this model is convenience. The manufacturer did a good job on ergonomics. The handle has shifted slightly, and the buttons have been moved closer to the fingers. Working with the tool has become much more convenient and easier. There are also rubberized inserts in the grip areas. Such a saw will not slip out of wet hands, as is often the case with other models. In general, an excellent version for your money. Not the cheapest, but not shocking with the price tag.

The most powerful circular saw of all presented in this category. It is in high demand by users due to overwhelmingly good reviews. Sawing wood materials occurs at a speed of 5500 rpm - the tool is not afraid of obstacles in the form of longitudinal spreading of boards and sawing thick bars in several passes.

It is this fact that is decisive for most users - the DeWALT DWE560 is bought mainly for large-scale carpentry or construction work (for equipping a professional workshop or building a house). Easy to use, unpretentious in maintenance, easy to set up and moderately productive - this is how, in a few words, you can give an exhaustive description of this circular saw.

The least powerful of the competitors in the category, but one of the most stable circulars from the Japanese brand. Designed for sawing hardwoods, though not at the fastest pace. There is no doubt about the ergonomics of use - the Japanese did a great job on this component. In terms of performance, Makita HS6601 also did not let us down.

The shaft diameter for the saw blade is standard 20 millimeters, so finding a replacement for it (if it is needed at all) will not be a big problem. The cutting height is limited to a figure of 55 millimeters - since fifty-fifty boards are mainly amenable to cutting, this indicator looks the most optimal.

An inexpensive circular saw on a battery seems to many to be something unrealistic. But right now, she is right in front of us.The cheapest model on the market from a popular Russian brand. Yes, the tool comes without the battery itself and the charger for it. But this is a normal practice and almost all brands do this, even the top ones, whose price tags are already several times higher.

As for the characteristics, they are standard for the segment here. Turnovers - 3.8 thousand. The angle of inclination is up to 45 degrees, and the depth of cut is up to 50 millimeters. Nothing outstanding. But there is a well-thought-out work tracking system. Several lines. All are transparent and can change position and direction. With this marking, your cut will turn out to be as even as possible and you will not have to constantly check with the drawn line. Well, the manufacturer's warranty can not but rejoice. 3 years from the date of purchase - a period that even top companies do not allow themselves.

When it comes to high autonomy and powerful batteries, the first thing that comes to mind for many of us is Tesla products. This circular saw is also Tesla, but it should be understood that it has nothing to do with the American corporation of the same name. In fact, this is another Chinese no-name, and if it were not for the numerous positive reviews, it would hardly have made it into our rating.

As it turned out, the autonomy of the tool is really impressive. On a single charge, the saw works out almost 1.5 times longer than its competitors. True, like other models, it comes without batteries and a charger. The form factor here is like that of Makita, which tells us where the manufacturer took the design of his tool from.But own batteries here are even better than those of the eminent German brand, so it is recommended to take them. Yes, their overall service life is slightly lower, but they are also much cheaper.

Circular saw, magnificent in its individuality. Perhaps the only element for which she receives praise is the combination of price and quality. Despite the unimaginably low cost for a tool of this class, the overall finish and engine life remain at a consistently high level. But in terms of performance, everything is more confusing. The fact is that the main “sore” of Ryobi is the unwillingness of manufacturers to customize components to a single and at least somewhat popular standard.

So, the landing diameter of the disc on this model is 16 millimeters. This is not as critical as, for example, in the earlier version of the saw with a ten-millimeter fit, but it also requires individual "treatment" in the form of a washer. Here you can also see a crazy thing in the form of a mismatch between the cut line and the risks on the body, an obvious (noticeable) backlash on the spindle, as well as an unimaginable howl at the start of the engine (isolated cases).

Makita is one of the most popular brands on the market today. And this saw is no exception. Customers leave reviews under it most often, and the total rating on marketplaces is very high. However, there is nothing to be surprised here. The company, as usual, does not exchange for cheap components and poor-quality assembly.This is the case when, having overpaid today, you save in the future. Such a saw will work much longer than analogues.

However, do not overload the tool beyond measure. In the event of a breakdown, be prepared to pay a lot of money for repairs. This nuance is also reflected by customer reviews and is considered the main drawback of the model. Maintainability is very low. It is better not to climb inside, so as not to make things worse. And service centers, knowing about this feature of Makita, raise price tags, since the user still has nowhere to go. Well, the battery will have to be bought separately. Fortunately, it is universal for all Makita tools.

Powerful, and at the same time not the most expensive circular saw in its class, which can become a good addition to the home carpentry workshop. Under the century-old brand of the once main supplier of weapons in Germany, a group of companies headed by the large global concern Electrolux has now settled. In general, the quality of their tools meets high international standards, which, surprisingly, is not always reflected in the price.

AEG BKS 18, of course, is a worthy representative of the German company. A cordless circular saw almost completely replaces its network counterparts - despite the not very capacious and strong battery, the voltage is enough to accelerate the disc to 2500 rpm. This allows you to easily cut 50 mm boards both across and into lengthwise dissolution.The only problem manifests itself in the warm season: in the heat, the battery quickly overheats, and an attempt to cut for a long time leads to the operation of the protection unit.

When working at home, there is not always a place that can be allocated for a stationary installation of a woodworking machine. You will have to make holes in your workbench or do something with the bed. If you initially take the machine on your own site, then, firstly, it will cost a lot, and secondly, such a tool is the most bulky, heavy and inconvenient. This version solves all these problems. The device already has its own frame, but at the same time it is very compact and does not take up much space.

Legs on non-slip stops, so additional fixation is not required in most cases. Not in all, since the machine's power of 1600 watts allows you to process a thick tree, and with such a load, the supports may no longer stand in one place. Be that as it may, this is the best model in everyday life. Easy to assemble and easy to manage. Scale with a steering wheel and settings in the range up to 45 degrees. For most tasks, this tool is enough.

Model RD-SS210-1200 RedVerg is a table saw, and is designed for sawing any material, be it wood, plastic or plywood. This mini circular saw is easy to maintain and is in demand not only among the owners of small workshops. It is perfect for the home - it is easy to place it on the balcony (hello neighbors) or in the garage.

In their reviews, the owners positively note the light weight and small size of the tool. The saw is very powerful, has high performance and "easily" copes with large amounts of work. If necessary, you can always increase the working surface (using a sliding panel). The material is cut with standard discs with a diameter of 210 mm, with a maximum cutting depth of 45 mm. Of course, there is a protective cover on the disk - a guard against accidental injuries during operation.

A machine-type circular saw can be used not only in production, but also in everyday life. Now we have the best version for the house. It is compact, lightweight and quickly put into operation. True, you will need fasteners, for example, pre-drilled holes in a workbench or table. The saw does not have its own legs, and this is a big drawback.

The vertical tilt angle of the instrument varies from 90 to 45 degrees. The setting is made by the steering wheel, which allows you to quite accurately set the parameter in the intermediate version.There is also its own dust collector, and not just a bag into which garbage flies by inertia, but a full-fledged vacuum cleaner that picks up chips. With such a machine, all work will be as clean as possible, which once again tells us that this is a saw for domestic use. Well, a power of 1900 watts and a rotation speed of 5 thousand will allow you to work with almost any material.

If you often saw wood at home and you need a stationary circular saw, but with an adequate price tag, then it is in front of you. This machine can hardly be called professional, although it has all the attributes inherent in this segment. All jackals and measuring rulers are in place. Yes, they are not the most convenient and there is a certain error. But the sliding bed looks especially convenient. With a stationary installation somewhere in the workshop or at the enterprise, this option is simply not needed. But at home or in the garage, where space is limited, simply the best version.

When folded, the machine is very compact, and it weighs only 16 kilograms, which makes it possible to constantly rearrange it or clean it after work. This is the best saw for home or field work. Its tilt angle is up to 45 degrees along the vertical axis. Any value can be set within this range. Well, there are only 4.8 thousand revolutions per minute, which is not so much, especially considering that there is a rather weak 1200-watt motor on board.

The American firm Dewalt specializes in professional equipment and there are very few tools for the home in their catalog.Yes, you can easily install this machine in your garage, but only on condition that you open the tree a lot and regularly. The productivity here is very high. The engine power is 1850 watts, which, with a spindle speed of almost 6 thousand revolutions per minute, makes the saw as fast as possible. At the same time, even when processing laminated chipboard or other decorative materials, chips will not remain at the cut points. Of course, provided that you use a disk from the same manufacturer.

Also, the advantages include a very accurate and convenient measuring scale. It is adjusted with an error of less than a millimeter, and all this is done with a slight movement of the hand. Of course, there is also a tilt angle of up to 48 degrees in the vertical axis. Well, you can’t help but say on the bed. The machine has stops on all sides, so it does not require fastening to the base.

A mini-saw is not the most convenient tool. It is unusual to hold it, and strong vibration causes rapid fatigue. Yes, in domestic conditions you may not have to work for many hours without stopping, but if you are looking for the most convenient model, then we have it in front of us. According to the grip configuration, this is a standard circular. That is, it can be operated with two hands.Of course, with an engine power of 400 watts, this is not necessary, but it definitely adds convenience, especially if you are in the habit of handling standard versions of such saws.

However, you can also work with one hand. The classic grip for mini versions is present. Consider the benefits and overall reliability. High-quality assembly and durable components have always distinguished the brand's tools, and the reviews clearly confirm this. If the saw is not overloaded beyond measure and properly looked after, it will last for many years and will not require repair. An important factor, since this company produces very expensive spare parts.

A hand-held circular saw is a dangerous tool. Same as Bulgarian. You have to hold them with one hand, and any awkward movement can lead to injury, and many manufacturers do not even think about it. The best in this regard was the Chinese brand PIT. This mini-saw is protected no less than its full-fledged circular brothers. The movable shroud never holds the disc open. It rests against the support platform, so even if the saw bites or your hand breaks, nothing catastrophic will happen. The tool just slams shut like a shell, and that's it.

In terms of technical aspects, everything is also on the level. Motor power 600 watts. A little, but for such a mini-tool it is enough. Turnovers, like a conventional circular, 5 thousand per minute. If you do not change the angle of the disc, then the depth of cut will be 28.5 millimeters, that is, it will cut a standard board without problems. Well, the reviews are positive, although the brand is not the most popular.

The DIOLD DP-0.55 MF mini-saw is perfect for performing various types of work and has an attractive price. This makes this model the best choice for the home. The ability to use different saw blades allows you to work with any material: wood, soft metal, artificial stone, tiles, etc.

It is easy to operate the tool - its weight is only 2 kg. There is a special lever to start immersing the disc into the material, and the required cutting depth is regulated by a special limiter on the casing. During prolonged use, a special indicator will report a possible overheating and will not allow the engine to be damaged before its safety margin allows. It, of course, is not the same as that of Makita, but for an amateur instrument, it is quite sufficient for the mini-saw to serve for a long time. In addition, the model is packed in a handy case, which contains everything you need: a set of discs, spare brushes, a key, etc.

Excellent handle ergonomics make this miniature circular saw the best to work with. Despite the Chinese production (due to this, the price is inexpensive), the model is made with high quality, and the assembly level is comparable to the Japanese Makita standard. When working, the saw blade does not lead to the side, which is an excellent characteristic of an amateur tool for the home.

The absence of a laser and poor visibility of the beginning of the cut makes it necessary to remove the protective cover. This is practically the only negative point in the reviews of the owners of the Einhell mini-saw.Otherwise, this tool has proven itself, demonstrating reliability and unpretentiousness when performing a wide variety of types of work.

The status CP90U universal circular hand saw has a power of 600 W and a rotation speed of 5500 rpm, which allows it to cope with the work of any complexity. The discs used in this model with a diameter of 8.9 cm allow you to make a cut with a depth of 3 mm even in soft metal and 28.5 mm in wood. The clarity of the lines during the cut is guaranteed by the presence of a laser marker and a parallel stop.
The Status CP90U circular saw has all the necessary safety mechanisms that prevent accidental switching on and activate the spindle lock. The high level of safety in operation makes the saw an excellent tool for the home. In the reviews there are comparisons in quality with Makita, which once again confirms the professional level of this equipment. The mini saw comes in a handy case with everything you need to get started.
