Best Cordless Tracksaw HEad-to-Head Comparison • Best Value Saw MAKITA - https://shrsl.com/2exzs • NOTE - • there was an error in the calculation for the Makita. It should be 180 watt-hours (2 packs x 5 Ah x 18 V = 180). It doesn't effect the final results, but does make Makita win the run-time category. • • ARTICLE: • https://www.toolboxbuzz.com/head-to-h... • Track Saw Lineup • This cordless track saw head-to-head includes 5 saws from; Bosch, DEWALT, Festool, Mafell, and Makita. • Bosch GKT 18V-20GC • DEWALT DCS520ST1 • Festool TSC 55 REB • Mafell MT55 18M • Makita XPS02PTJ • Best Track Saw Evaluation Format • For this evaluation, we broke things into several categories including Precision Quality of Cut, Performance (runtime/power), Features, Ergonomics, and price. We also point out the “best-value” saw. For each of these categories, we’ll rank the saws and in the end, we’ll name the Best Portable Cordless Track Saw based on all the results combined. • Precision Quality of Cut – In this category we evaluated the accuracy of the track saws and how easy it is to make adjustments. We also discuss the quality of the cut the saws produced. • Run-time– Lots of Pro’s think run-time is important. The performance evaluation took a very deep dive into the power of the saw motors and how well the saws managed ripping thick plywood material. • Features – An overall comparison of features and specifications. • Ergonomics – Ergonomics are really important to users and an important category to consider when purchasing any power tool. In addition to traditional ergonomics, we also included functionality in this category. • Price – Price is always an important factor in determining which saw is best for a user. We’ve included the current pricing found online for each of the saws “as-tested,” at the time of publication. • • Best Cordless Track Saw Features • Before we present the testing results, it’s helpful to set the stage by listing all the features and specifications for comparison.
