Ditto on not being able to justify the Brushless versions no matter how much I would like them. The burning you have on the cuts it possibly due to the blade being buggered. I mention below I put a 60T blade on mine and one a 300 x 35 piece of hardwood there is no burning but them my blade has about less than 30 metres of cut wear on it. You forgot to mention that *safety thongs* are essential when operating this device. 👍 An Ozito 18v Impact _dugga dugga_ makes it a lot easier to replace the blade. That miniature Allen Key is just a pain, literally a pain in the hand when trying to get enough leverage to remove the arbor screw. The safety button is also awkward to press, hold and then squeeze the _go_ trigger for anyone who has small hands. Really pleased with the saw and am kicking myself I didn't buy one years ago. First thing I did when I bought my Ozito 18v 165mm circ saw was to put a DIablo 60T blade on it and was fortunate that the Diablo bore size was the same as the Ozito arbor. (got badly caught out one changing blades on one of their powered saws) Diablo cuts waaay better than the supplied blade and you'll never even have to sand the edges smooth. I wish I could have justified a higher tooth count blade so the Melamine wouldn't experience tear out but a roll of good quality painter's masking tape was so much cheaper. Didn't realise it had an LED on it (instructions, what instructions 😁) likely due to me cutting outside. I bought mine to rip some full size plywood sheets down to fit in my car. The saw with the Diablo 60T blade had no issues with the 2400mm cut and the edges were _baby bottom_ smooth. *FYI* before I forget. The Ozito powered 210mm Sliding Compound Mitre Saw appears to have a supply problem for getting replacement brushes from the Bunnings Special Orders desk. They are available from AliExpress so just search for a Brush with the dimensions of *7x11x17* it being 7mm thick but can't remember the other two. Worn brush will indicate the width so all will be sweet. Now I just need to find the 10 I ordered for $1.49. Put them somewhere safe and where I wouldn't lose them. 🤦♂🤦♂ Hope that helps someone. *Thank you* for the video. 👍👍
Yeah I understand that the suppplied blade is not that good quality ive burnt some of the teeth off. I will do a video comparing this blade to a diablo blade as i have a diablo blade for my reciprocating saw and it makes a hell of a difference. Ive never really had a problem with the allen key with the blade changes.
Nice review mate cheers , i only just discovered recently , after owning a large Ozito Leaf Blower for about 5 years or so with twin 18 Volt Batters , that i could use those same batteries on other tools lol , So iv recently purchased a awesome Ozito Chainsaw , Power Drill & next a Skill Saw , Cheers Happy Days :)
If you get the drill then look for the Kit that has the Impact Drill bundled with it. That works out cheaper than buying the skins individually plus you get a 4Ah and 1.5Ah battery and a charger with the package. Mine also had an Ozito bag thrown in as well. Bunnings presently have a *Battery and Twin Charger* package running at the moment. 2 x 4Ah batteries and the twin charger for $99.98 and to buy them individually is close to $200.

Thank you indeed for this review . Much appreciated. You have given me what I needed to know. I'm off to buy one! (and a better blade!). 🙏
Thanks I appreciate the feedback I try and cover everything people need to know about the product I'm reviewing.
That sounds powerful to me
It is pretty good, certainly has gone through quite a few jobs for me just fine.
Nice
Thanks i appreciate it.
