Craftsman Info
One of the most iconic brands in DIY, Craftsman, was purchased by Stanley Black & Decker a while back and is now pumping out power tools for the serious DIY'er. There are different levels of Craftsman Power Tools, but the Brushless tools are no joke and give you performance that is on par with some pro tools. In this video, we review the Craftsman V20 Brushless 7-1/4" Circular Saw, model CMCS550B.
Craftsman claims up to 75% more power from the V20 7-1/4 in. Cordless Circular Saw over the brushed version. To be fair, you need to be using a 6Ah or 9Ah battery to see that gain in power. With these larger battery packs, this brushless motor provides 5,000 no-load rpm and has the torque to maintain speed under load.
The Craftsman V20 Brushless 7-1/4" Circular Saw is VERY similar to the DEWALT FlexVolt, FlexVolt Advantage, Power Detect, and XR Brushless circular saws. They share the same stamped-aluminum shoe, upper metal guard, 2-9/16 in. depth of cut at 90, 2 in. depth of cut at 45, and a bevel capacity of 56 degrees. This Craftsman also has an LED with a large sight window to allow you to see the cut line.
Available for an additional cost is a dust collection port attachment that the user can attach a vacuum to for a cleaner work environment. Since this is so similar to the DEWALT circular saw with the same option, we are going to go out on a limb and recommend you purchase that attachment if you want a cleaner workspace. They Work.
When we review many DIY tools, we do not push them very hard too fast. We obviously get cutouts and more heat because of the DIY design. In this video, we push this circular saw farther than we would push others, mostly because we feel it is so close to the DEWALT. We did get some heat, but it never timed out. I think that speaks mountains for the brand and the quality that is available for a great price.
Ryobi Info
There is a lot to say about the New RYOBI 18V ONE+ HP Brushless 7-1/4" Circular Saw, Model PBLCS300B. Our testing is extensive and the video is long. I apologize for that but there is a ton to go over.
First, we were unable to adjust the saw so we could get a square cut. There is not enough adjustment in the saw and the shoe hit the bottom of the motor before the blade was square to the shoe.
Power-wise, this saw has a no-load RPM of 4,300, which is slower than most other DIY saws on the market, but it cut well with a variety of batteries and never heated up. We even did two full-depth cuts without much of an issue.
Dust control on the saw sucks. I was eating sawdust the full time cutting and there simply is no place for the sawdust to exit. I am very surprised at this because TTI makes a lot of nice saws and this area seemed to just be overlooked.
Dust Collection on this saw seems like an afterthought without someone even looking at how the saw works. The dust collection port is always covered by the lower saw blade guard. In our testing, we were not able to collect for than a tablespoon of sawdust while making cuts on sheet goods. That was sad because dust collection is important for our health. Beyond that, listed below are the vacuums that will work with the collection port. It is not a standard size.
This saw will work for many DIY people and it has the power to make most very happy. With a few small improvements, it could perform much better in its class. We do not expect this saw to have Milwaukee quality, but we do expect it to function as most other circular saws would.
The MSRP on this saw is $129.00 bare tool. You can get a corded saw that is light years ahead of this saw for $89.00
