Makita HS7611J/2 240V 190mm Circular Saw Supplied in a Makpac Case

This is a great piece of kit. I’ve been using it every day, and it still does its job perfectly without any issues. The build quality feels solid and professional, exactly what you expect from Makita. Pros: Powerful motor that cuts smoothly through all kinds of timber Feels well-balanced and easy to handle for longer jobs The Makpac case is sturdy and keeps everything organised Depth and bevel adjustments are straightforward and precise Very durable — still going strong with daily use Cons: No negatives so far — it’s been completely reliable Overall, an amazing tool that’s made my work faster and easier. Highly recommended if you need a dependable circular saw for regular use.

Excellent quality and value for money. Glides through with ease and has a dust collection and great safety features. Brough for my husband as a present as previous saw stopped working, he is very please with every aspect of the saw.

Love this saw I’m only a D.I.Yer but I got this to replace a cheap saw my wife got me. Swapped the 12 tooth blade for 24 and ripped 30 sleepers in half for a garden project I wanted to get done. It had plenty of power and very accurate compared to the cheaper one. Also the saw bed is a lot more sturdy in fact the whole saw is very well made.

Good all round saw. Lightweight, powerful and compact. Baseplate could use some ribs to increase rigidity.

Nice light weight but strong saw

Purchased this to replace an old Black & Decker unit I've struggled with for years and I'm so glad I did. The base and controls/adjustments are robust and the handles are perfectly positioned. Despite having a 1600W motor, start-up is surprisingly controlled and with little 'kick' to affect initial alignment. I had to adjust the zero degree position a little to get a truly perpendicular cut but, once done, the cut quality is consistently clean and accurate. I also purchased 40 and 60 tooth blades, thinking these would be necessary for clean cutting in Douglas Fir. However, so far, the finish has been perfectly fine with the relatively coarse blade included so these remain unused. I considered the track saw adaptor but, first, made my own track from thin plywood which has proved adequate so am holding-off this further purchase for now. The depth adjustment rail and screw have benefitted from a little lubrication, and carefully lowering the blade during operation to facilitate a plunge cut has proven feasible so far. So all consideration of buying a dedicated plunge/track/rail saw have been has been shelved. Nice one Makita.

I bought this to reduce the height of some new doors and to replace a cheaper saw. The saw feels sturdy and cuts easily through the hardwood door. The supplied blade did not cut across the grain as finely as I wanted. but a smaller toothed blade did better. Changing the blade was easy. I don't think that it a fault that it is not a lightweight tool. The weight is not a problem for me and I can see that some might want a lighter saw. The size of the blade and the use of metal for the components that guide the blade are factors in the weeight and of course the size of the motor. The box is useful to keep the saw and the blades etc together, although the snap shut fasteners are a little fiddley.

It's lovely to use this Makita circular saw after my 25 year old Bosch one. It's robust, easy to adjust and I can use a square to ensure I'm cutting at 90 degrees. It eats through plywood and similar material with no problem. It's great having the case for it too. The extra blades etc all go in there.

Does the job perfectly

Perfecta, muy cómoda, buena calidad, llegó com enchufe inglés, decidí cortarla y hacer una conexión con toma de corriente europea, funciona perfectamente.

Macht viel Spaß..ist super zu bedienen. Was ich nur nicht gesehen hatte war das es aus UK kommt und somit den falschen Stecker hat..aber dank Elektroniker im haus haben wir das direkt geändert..sehr zufrieden

Verkeerde stekker aan de zaag.

E buonissima tagli perfetti
