Would recommend to any avid DIY enthusiast. With the price and efficient but cheap battery pack and chargers I would give 6 stars
Sometimes it’s stop when cut but I’m very happy with it. I work almost 1h and battery seems to be full
This is fantastic! I bought it to chop up wood for the fire, but I used it to do my skirting boards with it set at a 45-degree angle. It made the job a lot easier than when I used my jigsaw to do this. Cuts through the wood like butter. The battery holds out good as well. Still going on the first charge after about an hour of work. Rob 🙂
Looks well made. Easy to use.
Not really given it a full work out yet, so cannot give 5 star yet. Quite heavy but pleased for the price, will do for me as I am a casual user.
Haven’t used it yet but it looks like it’s good for the job.
Although this saw had some good reviews there were some bad reviews, particularly about a lack of torque. All I can say is those that gave it bad reviews were either unlucky or didn’t take the time to set it up correctly.
For the price this saw, just like the Hychika cordless drill I have, is nothing short of excellent.
I’ve been using it for the past couple of days to fit a bespoke kitchen. Between us we have this saw and a DeWalt cordless circular saw. Now I’m not going to say this is as good as the DeWalt, but it’s pretty close.
With the 40T blade in it cuts through 18mm hardwood like butter with a cut no different to the DeWalt. With the blade set at 45 I was able to cut perfect French cleats with ease, again as good as the DeWalt.
The angle guage on this is surprisingly accurate and easy to set.
Battery life is excellent if you fully charge the battery before first use. Its probably less than the DeWalt but I’ve been using it for 2 days and haven’t needed to swap the battery over yet.
The charger is straight forward to use but I can’t comment on how long it will take to fully charge a 4ah battery from drained as I haven’t needed to yet.
The most significant differences between this and the DeWalt are weight and the materials it’s made out of.
The Hychika is a fair bit lighter than the DeWalt and whilst it feels sturdy enough its not got the same feel to it as the DeWalt. Then again it hasn’t got the price tag of a DeWalt.
Would it stand up to the rigours of constant trade use? Probably not, but as a DIY tool I honestly don’t think you’d find better in its price bracket.
Just got this and haven’t been able to use it yet.
Seems good quality though.
Really good saw – collects the sawdust from the blade but then fires it at you – needs a collector bag or something on i
I’m just so pleased with it that I can’t express it enough.
Was looking for a circular saw that was easy to use a handle and this does the job.
it as its no the box, but it need one more Batter to make this the best deal ever…
I’m very happy with this saw, it cuts really well and it has a laser which is fantastic
Had some issues initially as the blade would stick after cutting about 20cm. Found that tightening the depth adjustment screw was twisting the frame so the guide edge was not parallel with blade causing it to stick. Resolved the issue by adding a couple of spacer washers to the depth adjustment screw to remove the twis
As an amateur DIY’er this is a great tool and easy to use.
works great , cuts well , a great saw for the price
Bought this quite some time ago and only had cause to use it recently while doing some repairs to a relatives kitchen. Excellent little saw. Not too heavy to operate one handed. Cuts through wood easily and is very accurate. Haven’t yet tried it on other materials but wouldn’t imagine it would be a problem. Like the vacuum cleaner attachment and the fact that the blade is depth adjustable. All in all for the price a marvelous addition to my DIY toolbox. Extremely happy with it.

Great value for money saw. Very light, compared to others.
Very easy to use. Excellent quality considering the low price.
This saw is powerful, easy to use for most DIY jobs. Had to set up blade angle t0 90degs to base as not very accurate on guide. However once set up and marked correctly, will cut with ease.
For the price, it is very good, if you are expecting perfection, then spend a lot more on a better saw.
Excellent product. Good manufacturer, robust build. Easy to use even for a self taught carpenter.
Highly recommended.
Bought as a Xmas present for my husband. Best tool he has. Very easy to set up. Very easy to gain confidence with. He uses it none stop through a renovation. Super!!!
Does exactly what it says on the tin. No key in the box to tighten the blade but I have my own so no big problem, cuts well and didn’t cost the Earth
Bought this after a careful review of corded machines available. It is a replacement for an old B&D machine which I have had for many, many years. It is a significant upgrade in terms of features, and looks like it will last as well as it’s predecessor. Cannot comment on performance yet as the need to use it has not occurred yet.
I wanted a cheap battery rip saw for my home DIY. This fitted the bill. Not sure if suitable for everyday use. Guard plastic. Blade cuts on the left so you tend to lean to the left instead of leaning over the saw to the right.
It’s not the most powerful and it occasionally quits if you don’t get your timber in the right position I.e. pushing the the timber down when cutting. When you do get it right it’s brilliant. The battery is unbelievable. Today I built an 8m x2m decking, including the base. I did every cut with it (and there were a lot) and when I checked the battery after it was still at 50%.
This is anexcellent circular saw. It replaces my old Bosch one that had many issues
This saw cuts through anything, and it does so cleanly, effeciently and without fuss
This circular saw is also very quiet vs what I’ve had in the past and has been really solid on my uses
I’ve used it for cutting some boards and posts for a desk and shelving and it did not complain and gave clean and accurate cuts. Didn’t even had to recharge the battery yet! Great for home projects, but nothing is stopping it to be used within business for some odd jobs.
Feels good in the hand with no issues in manoeuvring it and starting the cuts.
Good build quality and simple to follow instructions makes it a great purchase.

Doing it myself as iv been quoted over 7000 by rip off merchants..full kitchen including flooring only come to 5500
Anyway
Sliced up a 3 inch worksurface.was skeptical about only having 2 blades but the finer one cut through it like butter
Would have been nice to have a more clearer line runner on the front
But I was off by 2mm on this demo run so not bad
For the price it’s powerful and for the frequency of myself using it..it justified the money
Only gripe
Instructions
2 pages but nothing about setting the blade up and correct safety checks
Ended up going on ytube…
And
Lady’s please on ytube it’s the performance of the circular saw that matters not THE COLOUR
Nice
It comes with a good capacity battery as well as a charger which charges the battery quickly. Two wood blades are also included. Very happy with this kit for the low price.
Good value for money & easy to use even though a little heavier than my last saw. The only disappointment is that it did not come with any spanner to tighten the blade so had to use an Allen key instead. Possibly over sight with the packaging although have not contacted or returned the product as need urgently for a project.
Would certainly recommend to anyone who needs a small verastitle cutter.

I’ve never liked the big circular saws, I find them a bit menacing and it feels like one false move and they’ll remove a limb. This feels more forgiving, you can chuck it about and easily handle the kickback with a single hand, I use it for most cutting jobs now and it’s great for drop cutting into floors. It’s not quite deep enough to do a door so it has it’s limits and with a much smaller blade it does blunt a lot quicker than a big saw but I think to be expected.
The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is because you need to keep the retractable plate well lubricated, after a fair bit of use the dust will jam up the mechanism and the plate won’t retract after a cut and it’ll leave the blade exposed, this feels very dangerous and I stop using it until I can free up the plate again.
Robust apart from the faceplate which is flimsier than I would like too easy to bend it. I am using it to cut various beams for decking and it is doing that effectively
Pretty good and powerful saw, clockwise cutter, blades included could be better. Not bad to use mitre and depth, though don’t trust the gauges to much. Guide is good on thicker material, 18mm plus, not so much with thinner stock.
Overall this is a decent saw for the money and functionally does the job, it’s powerful enough. The only fault that I raise is that the power cord is quite short. I was cutting 1.8m boards and would have to stop to adjust.
It was easy to set up, it comes with the Allen key and the only thing I needed to do was to put the blade in place, on that note the first time I put the washer on the wrong side and quickly realised. After correcting my mistake I didn’t have any other problems. It’s very easy to use, even for a beginner. I recently broke up with my partner who used to do most of the woodwork so I don’t have much experience. But this saw it’s easy to use and you don’t need to apply too much force.
I’m very happy with the results, my planters look great and I’m looking forward to fresh vegetables this summer.
I got this as a replacement for my old worn out saw. It is better than i thought it would be. It arrive quickly nad it was up and working within 5 minutes of arriving cutting 2inch thick cherry planks. I would recommend this as a good little saw.
I wanted this type of saw because I know how well they cut laminate floor and tile having used a similar product a few year ago.
So I have used this for cutting the tile in my kitchen and the laminate floor in my kitchen.
It performed amazingly well to cut both the tile and the laminate floor. The laser guide and straight edge guide are perfect.
Replacing the saw blades is a doddle, you press the lock button and use the Allen key to loosen the bolt then the blade can be pulled out of the bottom, put the new blade in and hey presto you have a new blade in place in about 60 seconds.
I also purchased another set of blades but so far I have not had to use them as the blades are very sharp and hard wearing.
The saw itself is very powerful and not overly loud and the added hose attachment for a vacuum is brilliant and gets rid of a lot of the mess.
I absolutely love this saw and can not wait to get using it again for the next to rooms I have to lay laminate flooring.
All in all this has been a very good experience for me. Fast delivery, great product, great build quality and works exactly as it should. 5 stars from me.

The saw in particular feels very sturdy and we’ll made. It comes with 4 different blades, it’s easy to use and instructions are clear.
One feature I really like is the vacuum hose, it has a conical shape so it’s compatible with any vacuum cleaner. It helps a lot keeping the dust away.
I think for the price you couldn’t ask for more.

Once I played with it for a while to practice (essential) it worked a treat. being able to adjust the cutting depth and ensure I wasn’t cutting in to concrete and blunting the blade was great. The blade did smoke a bit but I think that may have been due to the glue in the laminate burning?
If you push too hard the motor will struggle as its not a heavy weight rip saw so take your time. Great thing is you can stop and start easily. Just reset the blade back in to the cut and fire up again.
To get someone to cut out the flooring would have cost four times the cost of the saw so I think it just makes sense. I have some more flooring to lay in the future and it will be really helpful with this too.
The dust pipe was a bit useless to be fair as the vacuum as the effort on the motor sucking from a tiny tube made the motor cut out so I found it easier to cut; stop; vacuum; cut ;stop; vacuum etc etc…dust!
Did lots of research before I bought a plunge saw and I think it paid off. Great bit of kit. Thoroughly recommend.
