DEWALT 20V MAX
Staff pick
When looking at an overall best product, the cost vs. the features is one of the critical points. The DeWalt Max is a workhorse with a five amp hour battery and charger in the set. The 5,200 RPM motor is powerful enough for any job, and the big battery should last you all day too. The blade has an excellent 57-degree tilt available for beveling as well.
Makita XSS01T
Made to last
While this isn't the best overall because of the price, it is my favorite saw of the bunch. Makita makes excellent tools that last a long while, and this saw is no exception. This set comes with two five amp-hour (5Ah) batteries for maximum usage time, and the build quality is outstanding. If you have the money, you should consider this.
BLACK+DECKER 20V
Swappable batteries
For those of us who need to pinch the pennies, but who need a saw that will do the job, the Black + Decker 20v is a great deal. The high-torque motor is backed up by a two-year warranty, which is excellent and at this low price and supplies you with a battery that works across the whole Black + Decker range. It's the batteries that cost the most after all, so getting one cheap is a big help.
Makita XSH06PT1
Versatile for spaces small and large
If you are in construction, especially house building, sometimes you need something with a little more firepower than the average DIY user. The Makita XSH06PT1 is a monster that is so powerful it uses two 5Ah batteries to run the 6,000 rpm motor. It can cut 640 cross-cuts per charge, almost triple anything else here, and with the power charger, those batteries can charge three times quicker than average. This is a beast and is for serious people doing serious work.
