4.0 out of 5 stars Was Surprised By Its Power, September 23, 2008

I cut a long piece of 5/8" BC plywood, and it did the job marvelously. I cut a 2/4", and it did the job. It did bog down a bit. I am not sure how many 2/4" a person could cut on a charge, but if your just doing small jobs this is a good choice for circular saw.

One thing, I didn't find a sawdust bag, and a sawdust bag would be helpful. Looks like there is a place for one, but haven't been able to find one.

Another thing Denali is impossible to locate, on the web, so any information that you can't get through Amazon; will be unanswered questions.

1.0 out of 5 stars Unforgivable, August 10, 2009

This review is from: Bare-Tool Denali 567865 18-Volt Cordless 5-1/2-Inch Circular Saw (Tool Only, No Battery) (Tools & Home Improvement)

A year after I bought the entire Denali 18v set, the BATTERIES ARE UNAVAILABLE. And the helpful little note from Amazon reads: "not sure if or when this item will be available." Amazon, this is absolutely unforgivable. At the very least, a responsible company would tell us if some other battery will fit the tool. And yet, Amazon still sells the 18v tools as "bare-tool," with no warning that batteries aren't available! And, yeah, after a year, the batteries (I have 2) are pretty much shot. Back when it had batteries, though, it was an "okay" tool, a little underpowered for anything but convenience use. The least effective of all the Denali tools, as another reviewer noted.

I bought this not expecting much. Much worse than I imagined. Loses charge after a few minutes and can't handle anything over 1/2" thick without problems. Very disappointed.
