Disappointing
I bought this tape in a two pack at black friday this 2021. Have not used it much until this week 3,2,22. I pulled it out to measure for sheetrock in my garage an it would not wind back in its housing. I have 25 year old klinen tapes I used every day on the job that are still winding back . It took me 10 minutes to work it to wind almost all the way. Poor quality I do not expect from milwaukee. I have lots of Milwaukee tools and this one let me down.

Not same product as pictured
Purchased this and added the 5in orbital to my yellow and black kit. Claims to be an XR battery kit but the 4ah battery shows no XR labeling or looks the same as pictured. Overall it's a good deal with the tool.

This starter kit does come with two XR batteries.
The batteries do not come with cap which need to be careful when storing them in the tool bag.

The lock switch is VERY difficult to engage
It take a whole lot of effort to engage the tape measure lock switch, which makes the tool very difficult to work with.

This handy-sized saw is a great addition to DeWalt's lineup of 20v MAX brushless tools. The 6-1/2 in. blade size makes this saw easier to handle but can still accomplish plenty of tasks.
This saw feels great in the hand and isn't too heavy, depending on what capacity battery you're using. The handle plus the support at the front provide a comfortable grip while cutting. The LED light automatically turns on when you press the trigger and is a nice feature that helps improve visibility.
All the levers and locks work as expected. Changing the cutting depth is a breeze. The lever to adjust the bevel is very tight out of the box, but once you get it loose, it's easy to move. Installing the blade is simple despite poor instructions in the manual. There is an Allen wrench attached to the saw itself, so you just pop that off, press down the spindle lock, and install.
Operating the trigger feels natural and safe. The blade immediately stops as soon as you let go, thanks to the electronic brake. This saw feels plenty powerful and capable for a 20v cordless saw. It cuts quickly and cleanly.
I wouldn't consider this saw to be quiet, however. It's not overly loud, but there are competitors with quieter options. The left-sided blade works well for this right-hander, providing decent sight lines.
This saw comes with a dust chute attachment that very easily pops right on with no screws, but unfortunately, it's not the only piece you need to fit it to a shop vac hose. An adapter that is sold separately for $20-30 is required.
One other minor quip is that the blade guard is made of plastic, which is disappointing considering the comparable 7-1/4 in. model has a metal blade guard and is cheaper at the time I'm writing this.
Overall, I am impressed with this circular saw! Packs a punch for a more compact, cordless design.

The DEWALT 20-VOLT MAX BRUSHLESS CORDLESS 6-1/2 IN. CIRCULAR SAW (TOOL-ONLY) is a great upgrade of their 6 1/2 inch cordless saws. Favorable features include an LED worklight that illuminates the cutting area so where the blade contacts the work can be easily seen, a bracing handle at the front of the saw to steady the saw when cutting, brushless motor, a magnesium shoe, a dust port vacuum attachment and a rafter hook. The saw also comes with an electronic brake, allowing for a quick blade stop when the trigger is released. Features are included to allow for an easy blade change, which include a blade brake and a hex wrench that embeds in the handle. The one drawback and concern I have is the plastic lower blade guard. The guard wobbles quite a bit and isn't likely to be durable since it's plastic. Other than that, this is a good, quality saw that should provide many years of service.

I did not know how useful this battery powered saw could be until I got one!! Needed a support on my wood fence. Took the saw and a 2 x 4 to the back of the yard. Measured, marked sawed and installed in just a few minutes. Then one trip to the basement to return the saw and hammer. No extension cords to roll out , then roll back up.The Dewalt 20 volt saw is small and easy to handle when cutting a miter, but heavy enough to hold true on a line. It has plenty of power to cut through a 2 x 4 without slowing down.

I really like the design and quality of this saw. It’s nice to have the Allen tool for blade change attach right in the handle so it won’t be so easy to lose. The feature of the light sure makes it easy to keep the saw on the cut line and I find the weight of the saw not to heavy for a full day of working with it. The rafter hook is a great feature and the way it folds down out of the way when not needed is great. The speed and power is suitable for framing and most construction jobs that I do.
