Good saw for the price
My husband bought this as we were always needing a saw for home projects and he hated to always borrow the neighbors. We definitely got our monies worth and it’s been a good product for us

    Great drill for a great price
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just purchased this 13 amp 7 1-4" version of ryobi's skil saw line for a personal project and I gotta say it does what is needed perfectly for the price. It comes with a blade and easy to read instructions can't ask for better 👍

      WHAT A ROYAL PIECE OF COW MANURE
      Got this for Christmas from my wife. Didn't use it right away because I normally don't use circular saws. But the time came that I needed it and what a royal piece of cow manure this "thing" is. I would expect Ryobi to be good stuff, but not the case here. When I ran it across some plywood, it wouldn't pull straight and it burned up my wood. Why? Glad you asked. I looked it over & found the blade was not anywhere near parallel with the base plate. And there's no adjustment to fix that. JUNK !!!

          Saw won’t stop - faulty trigger
          After about two minutes of use the trigger stopped responding mid cut. Had to unplug it to get the saw to stop. I tried plugging it back in and it immediately started up without touching the trigger. Additionally, with a brand new blade, still kicks and cuts pretty unevenly. As if it is struggling from the get go.

              The center hub bolt/screw broke upon initial tightening so was not even able to use the saw

                Very dangerous saw
                I’ve used many circular saws over the years and decided to give the corded Ryobi a try. I’ve used it a handful of times and the kickback is insane. I was unable to cut through a piece of plywood today and tossed it in the trash. Unsure if it’s a design flaw or what, but be warned. I’d spend a little extra and go elsewhere.

                    Great value for the price.
                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this saw to replace a cordless model that just did not get the job done and am very glad I did. This saw got the project done in record time. Wish I had gotten it sooner!

                        wait
                        I waited for this to come to complete some projects and when it got here I unpacked it put the blade on and it didn't work! Now have to bring it back to the store to exchange it! looked it over and there is a Crack by the power button!

                          Good for household use. Replaced a similar model by Ryobi. No laser guide. Make cuts more challenging.

                          It works for the cheapest one they make
                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought it a month ago and the blades get stuck. The metal nut isn't tempered great but I use a pipe wrench to take it off when it's stuck cause I've stripped the tool that came with it already. It could use some notches in the front section of the guide for lining up better and a thicker metal for the base plate. Otherwise, it serves it's purpose until I can afford to buy a better model. It definitely has the power of 13 amps if you use your cords correctly. 👍
