DOVAMAN Circular Saw, 5.8A 4-1/2" Circular Saw w/Laser & Auxiliary Handle

I had been looking for a circular saw small enough to use on little jobs. This was easy to put together, change blades, and use. I was nervous at first, but then I was ready to saw things down that didn't need to be sawed. lol I used it on a small project and it worked great. I used regular plywood and cut them in strips. This was so handy to do with a hand saw and no room to work. Pic: My install after the cuts. Love that it came with extra blades and it adjusts to different levels and depths. I love the beam so I know I was going straight on my cut lines. This is a great tool, especially for the price.

So far so good. Cut thru a treated 2x8 like nothing flat. Probably due to its new blade. New blades make every saw cut better. Very convenient and handy. Would buy again

I bought this saw for two main reasons: 1) its compact size, because I carry crates of power tools from job to job, 2) its corded, electric motor, because I’m sick and tired of battery powered tools. I am very satisfied with its quality of manufacture and motor torque. I use it primarily to break down sheet goods and for the occasional crosscut of 2X framing lumber. When operated at the max depth of cut it is easy enough to hold provided that you are right-handed. On the rare occasion when I have needed to use it left-handed it is all but impossible to operate as the trigger and safety switches are not easily accessible to that hand. This saw will crosscut 2X framing lumber with the blade set at 90 degrees. It will not do so with the blade beveled at 45 degrees. Interestingly, the 24 tooth wood blade that comes with this saw has a diameter that is 1/4” (5mm) wider than the other blades. That extra 1/4” is what allows it to crosscut framing lumber. Be mindful of this if and when tou need to buy new blades. You’ll need a 4-3/4” (120mm) diameter blade. In addition, the arbor hole in all the blades that accompany this saw is 3/8” (9.5mm). Many third party blades are 10mm, so you really want to go looking for blades having a 3/8” arbor hole up to 4-3/4” (120mm) in diameter. I have two important criticisms of this saw. 1) It is difficult to hold when making a shallow depth of cut because the handhold is positioned awkwardly high. Consequently the accuracy of the cut suffers and the operator gets tired more easily. 2) The saw is small and light (which is great) but becomes unwieldy when connected to a vacuum hose. You generate a LOT of sawdust with this tool. You want a vacuum. But the high angle at which you must often hold the saw coupled with the drag caused by the vacuum hose make this a tool that you don’t want to work with all day long. To correct the above shortcomings this saw should be redesigned in the D-handle form that virtually all other circular saws employ. Years ago I owned a 5” Black and Decker corded electric circular saw that was spectacular in all respects. Seriously Dovaman, if you could replicate that saw with the same build quality that you’ve shown with this saw, it would be worth 10 stars. Other observations about this tool: The laser is not particularly accurate and it requires a watch battery. This is a feature I could easily live without. The edge guide is fine but its measurement markings are not accurate. I use the 90-degree vacuum hose adapter to deflect at least some sawdust away from my face. As circular saws go it is not especially loud. Bottom line: for occasional use you can put up with its shortcomings. But this would be a far better tool if it were just as small but in a D-handle form.

I got this mini saw cause I didn't want to get one of those big bulky ones and I might say it works very well. It's powerful and cuts with ease, plus I like that it came with a few different blades....I would definitely recommend if you're looking for a mini saw and also I didn't want a battery operated one as most of them the battery had to be purchased separately.

Well made mini circular saw, with good quality material and construction. Much heavier and larger than expected, especially being AC powered, without a heavy battery pack. This saw is actually heavier than our full-size regular circular saw. Good accurate cutting, but sometimes hard to see metal guide when saw dust accumulates. Not sure how to fit included small vacuum adapter onto vacuum cleaner hose, as not covered in instructions. Needs a detailed printed instructions manual, in addition to the online video. Laser light very handy, but needs extra batteries, as the provided batteries were already pre-installed and not sure how long they were there and depleted. Seems very durable and very powerful. Good value for money. But wish it was lighter and more compact for easier maneuvering, handling, and control. The centered placement of the saw blade, versus foward positioning, means it may not cut all the way to the end, within tightly enclosed spaces. Very good value with the four different blades included. It would be better if a storage carrying case was provided, and not an extra cost. Recommended when on sale.

The first one I ordered was used, I sent it back. I received a brand new one. This saw is outstanding. I'm replacing deck floorboards that have rotted at the knots, they are 16 footers, I used this saw to rip 1/4" of the 16 footers length wise and it went through them like butter, I used the rip fence and the cuts came out straight. I did many cross cuts and again like butter. What I really like is the saw sight and blade gate side is on the left unlike larger circular saws where it's on the right, that makes it so much easier to use. And I'm still using the first blade and it's still super sharp. It throws more dust than usual so of course wear safety goggles and a mask if you like. This saw is a must have.

Really handy. I have already used this on several small projects and it has worked really well. The laser light? Stopped working after the first use... so not real happy about that.... which is why it gets 3 stars

I love it, is perfect professional tool stability, accuracy, easy-to-use and value for money

Mon ressenti après ma 1ère utilisation et plutôt positive. J'ai coupé de l'aggloméré d'épaisseur 16 et 32mm ainsi que du MDF, pas de bavures, la puissance est bien présente, la machine a coupé l'aggloméré de 32mm sans aucun soucis et sans faiblir. La partie mécanique est clairement bas de gamme, le tout est en tôle assez fine mais finalement suffisamment solide, en tout cas elle fait parfaitement son boulot. Je n'ai pas utilisé le laser pour le moment, j'ai davantage confiance avec une règle et des serre-joints.

Works as it should

Tool quality and accuracy is not good, item received with defect in lock system, overall build quality not upto mark.

Ho acquistato questo prodotto perchè la mia sega circolare montata su un piccolo banchetto non mi permette di fare dei tagli maggiori di quelli che mi servono, mentre con questa sega circolare lavorando direttamente su un banco più grosso riesco a gestire la maggior parte dei tagli. Valutazione dell'oggetto in questione molto positivo, diciamo che all'apertura tutto era sigillato e nuovo, la lama era già montata e quindi non ho controllato se era serrata completamente, fatelo perchè a me dopo qualche taglio con le vibrazioni si è allentata, ho tagliato dei pannelli di un pallet di compensato spesso 25 mm, e non ha avuto problemi, anche il laser era già a posto e centrato perfettamente, diciamo che è molto rumorosa, è quasi d'obbligo attaccare un aspiratore, alla bene meglio io gli ho attaccato all'uscita del bocchettone un sacchettino che raccoglie il più della segatura, ho notato che l'aria prodotta dal motore devo verificare meglio, nella posizione che mi metto spara direttamente in faccia ed è fastidioso perchè arriva anche del pulviscolo, l'impugnatura effettivamente non è molto ergonomica diciamo che la parte più grossa tocca il palmo della mano ed è un pò scomoda tenerla per chi non ha grosse mani. Data la qualità scadente delle tavole i tagli sono venuti abbastanza bene, ma credo che con una lama con più denti al widia e con un pò di calma su tavole di legno tipo abete si possa fare dei bei tagli più che decenti, non ho provato le altre lame, anche la maniglia laterale è molto robusta come tutta la struttura della sega circolare e in fine un'ottima fascetta per legare il filo, da non buttare la scatola di cartone per riporla visto che non ha una valigetta sua. Che dire ancora per il poco che l'ho usata e pagata 59€ va benissimo, mi riservo di aggiornare la recensione dopo averla usata un pò di più. A seguito di qualche prova come dalle foto, i due tagli sono stati effettuati con disco al widia e quello in acciaio con più denti, come si può notare la lama al widia lavora meglio lascia un pochino di bava in entrata ma in uscita il taglio è preciso, mentre quella in acciaio secondo mè è meglio usarla per tagli grossolani ho deciso di provare una lama a più denti al widia, diciamo che c’è molta difficoltà a trovare questo tipo di lame che vadano bene con questo attrezzo, nonostante su aliexpress abbia trovato un disco a 40 denti in widia da 115 mm , con foro centrale da 20 mm, quindi ho acquistato anche le rondelle che riporta il foro centrale a 9,5mm, ma purtroppo una volta montato il disco non resta bloccato primo perché restano soltanto 1 / 2 mm perché la rondella di blocco faccia un pò di grip sul disco e secondo lo spessore del disco risulta di 5 decimi più fine dell’originale quindi prova fallita, per farla breve se volte un disco con più denti per un taglio più accurato diventa un problema, se riuscirò a sistemare il disco amplierò la mia recensione

Muy practica y ha cumplido con lo esperado. La uso en la casa para mis trabajos personales
