Makita XCC01Z 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 5" Wet/Dry Masonry Saw, AWS® Capable, Tool Only

Worked perfect on granite cut out for new stove

This saw worked perfectly to cut 2 vessel sinks into a quartz counter top. The coolant bottle works very well and I’m impressed as to how leak free it is if you take one of the other reviewers recommendation and wrap the fitting threads with plumbers/pipe tape. It didn’t leak a drop. Also, just about everything I could find said that the included blade is not good for cutting quartz and engineered stone but it cut quartz perfectly with absolutely no chipping. I did make 2 passes though, maybe that helped. Either way, 5 stars!!

Fabulous for detail, shaped, plunge or large format tile cut outs. Accurate, clean lines on porcelain tile with a festool track saw & adjusted adapter. Wouldn't use all day, but great 2nd saw on the job. I use it with a smoother cutting blade. Battery life is pretty good on tile. The water resevoir tank leaks from the top due to air gap so it functions, going to try a wet sponge on the blade instead for quick smaller cuts. Haven't used the hose function yet, don't plan on lots of long cuts, but seems functional with care of plastic fittings.

Cuts well and easy to control because it’s no bigger than it needs to be. I made a custom speed square out of wood. Imagine a standard speed square with an extra raised lip to use as a saw guide and you’ll know what I did. I also have a wooden guide jig that hugs both edges of a Hardee plank. I just push it along as needed. The guide is always perpendicular to the edge of the plank. I think this is more efficient and adaptable than a stationary work station. I use the saw dry to cut cement planks for siding and wet for ceramic tile. Water bottle gasket could be better as there is some leakage. Otherwise, I’m glad I chose this particular multi-tasker. I’m very pleased with the quality of this saw.

This little tile saw has came in pretty handy for me, it's a good value for the money, cutting is pretty good put don't push to hard at the end because I have broken three tiles at first, factory blade is good, battery life is 4 hours on a 6 ah battery, I would recommend this Saw

I purchased this to cut some granite countertops. This is extremely easy to use and I found it to make clean and true cuts in my granite countertop that I needed to widen the opening for my new stove. The water option (hose or small container that has quick connects) keep the dust down. You can use it to dry cut, but you need to buy an adapter if you want to vacuum or have a dust bag attached. This was perfect for what I needed, but I could see this being a key tool in much larger tile cutting, stone countertop cutting jobs.

he bottle and the hose both leak uncontrollably. Big let down

Wonderful

Battery voltage low and don’t last long at all, over priced by nearly £100.00, managing to source locally with a Makita dealer. Delivery was over 3 weeks late.

Très apprécié pour les longues tuiles. Coupe bien

Exceeded my expectations, great little saw and I work it hard, very happy with it!

First off, I am a huge fan of Makita. Love their products. I was excited to get this tool. I needed to cut porcelain tile for a bathroom. When using it freehand It did not cut as cleanly as I had hoped. When I I used it with a Makita track I could not cut with it at all. The diamond blade was not parallel to the metal base so the blade was going through the tile on an angle. The blade would bind up in the cut about 8” into the cut. Couldn’t push it any further. Did not use it for the tile project and I am going to try and send it back. Disappointed.
