Coming from a 240v 190mm Makita this has been great. Quieter, blade break after cutting, handles are more ergonomic, slightly lighter, and great position for the depth adjustment on the left side of the body of the saw. One downside i found is that the blade guard catches a bit as you start cutting giving you a bit of resistance, but not too bad. Also doesn’t have a lever on the body side of the saw for pre-opening the blade guard like some Mafel and new 40v Makita saws do now. Otherwise great.
