This is a great saw. After using other cordless saws (Makita,Rigid,Bosch) this saw is way better. The 36v battery lasts pretty long (As with any cordless saw, the thicker the material, the shorter the battery will last). With the 36v battery as well, you have power to the end. It doesn't fade and get slower. For cutting sheathing, it rocks. I resheathed many roofs with it and on more than one occasion using just one battery. When it comes to cutting 2x material, it works pretty good. If you're making an angle cut with a beveled cut though (for example when building a hip roof), it will do the job, but you need a bit of patience. With a new blade it works a bit better. But unless you're using a worm drive saw, its pretty normal for a circular saw. A great thing about this saw to is that it has a 7 1/4 inch blade. Most cordless saws have 6 1/2 and if you need to buy a new blade, you don't have a lot of choice and not every store carries it. But this saw had a "normal" size blade which means that you have much more selection and pretty much every hardware store carries them. I have a Bosch framing blade on mine at works great. Also when changing the blade you don't need a wrench or an Allen key to get it off. You push out a little thing and unscrew it. Very easy to change the blades. This winter I helped my brother in-law build his house in Northern Quebec in December. This saw did everything. And that week it was -25 C almost everyday. The saw just kept on working. Combined with the Dewalt 36v reciprocating saw, you could accomplish most tasks with ease. My suggestion though is that if you know you are going to use it a lot, get another battery. The Dewalt 36v batteries are a little expensive, but well worth it.
