Customers are mixed about the ease of cutting. Some mention that it cuts very well, making clean, straight cuts. It also easily cuts through 2x4, plywood, marine plywood, and anything else they've tried.

Customers are mixed about the power of the saw. Some mention that it has more than enough power for 2x4, plywood, and even. However, others say that 20 volts is just not enough horsepower to work well, and the saw is a bit underpowered.

Cuts quickly, but alert operator can prevent motor fires.

Cuts quickly, but alert operator can prevent motor fires.
Had Black and Decker 20V batteries from other tools so this was an economical way to go. It's seems to work similar to the the previous B+D 6.5" saw. Should work ok if you are careful to release the trigger if the blade stalls - holding it down too long may burn out the motor. This is the first saw I've used with motor on right side of blade. Have used saw for 2 months now. Having burned the motor in an older 18V 6.5" B&D Firestorm saw can strongly suggest listening to the saw. Pushing the saw too hard so motor slows down might make a hot plastic smell. Stop immediately and blow on the motor to cool it down - the hot plastic smell might be your last warning that motor brush holders starting to melt, continued use without cooling may result in smoke and flames. Am attaching 4 photos from the older BD saw FS1806CSL which is likely to be of similar construction as BDCCS20 with brushed DC motor without cooling fan. Today was using the BDCCS20 saw to make deep cuts and saw was slowing down but not stopping - suddenly the same hot/burnt plastic smell started that came out of the FS1806CSL. I kept using the FS1806CSL and was rewarded with a smoke plume and a visible glow. Next 3 photos of current saw BDCCS20, was able to save saw from a repeat of smoke and flames by immediately stopping when the hot plastic smell started. Blew air into motor holes where heat could be felt coming out until motor cooled off. Was able to continue cutting, this time carefully to keep saw running at high speed. If you need a saw that you can push hard and make lots of cuts this may not be the best choice. I will continue using it since I have several B&D 20V batteries. It can be a good usable saw if you understand and respect its limitations.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gem of a battery powered saw!
Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2019
Style: Circular Saw OnlyVerified Purchase
OK, disclaimer -- this is the first circular saw I've owned -- but it far exceeded my expectations, both in performance and quality! I've borrowed and used other saws, so not a complete neophyte. This saw is light, maneuverable, and makes accurate, clean cuts. The standard blades has held up well cutting a variety of treated lumber (2x4, 2x6, 2x8, 4x4, 1x5, and more) over the course of building a 10x14' deck, resurfacing a 3x20' walkway, and building a 6' bench. The adjustable depth and angled bevel features came in handy multiple times. And the best surprise was the battery life -- a 2 AH battery lasted all day for me! Recharge it overnight and it's ready to go the next morning.

I initially bought this B&D circular saw because I had a weed eater of the same brand that used the same 20V battery, but given my experience, I'd buy it on its own merits! I now own a B&D cordless drill as well as this saw and the previously mentioned weed whacker and have been more than pleased with the performance of all three!

I'm not a professional and don't use these tools on an everyday basis, but if you're a weekend projects person, I highly recommend the B&D 20V line of tools. From my research, these are about half the price of Makita, Dewalt, Craftsman, Ryobi, and the like.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Battery Powered 5.5 Inch Circular Saw
Reviewed in the United States on February 4, 2014
Style: Circular Saw OnlyVerified Purchase
I was so pleased to buy this circular saw because I had an extra 20 volt battery that I got with my  Black & Decker BDCDHP220SB-2 20v Max Lithium Drill Driver with 2 Batteries . It comes with a 5.5 inch circular blade that is very appropriate for most general projects around the house. This saw probably isn't going to replace your AC powered 7.25 inch circular saw for big projects. But for me, this is just what I wanted to be able to go about anywhere without needing a AC power outlet. It is heavier weight than I expected - very robust appearance and has a great feel in your hand. At first I thought it was a 7.25 inch circular saw, but apparently I've forgotten since I sold off all my tools ten years ago. I haven't tried to see how long the battery will last yet. I have a total of four 20 volt batteries that fit it, so I'm not concerned. One of my 20 volt batteries is a 4 Amp Hour battery. I need the 4 Amp Hour battery for the trimmer and even then, sometimes I have to switch over to one of my other 20 volt batteries when the 4 Amp Hour battery is depleted.

I am very pleased that Black & Decker has standardized on 20 volt batteries. It is really annoying to have a wide variety of tools from the same manufacturer and none of the batteries are interchangeable. A 20 volt lithium battery should be able to power most everything around the house. I have one Black and Decker 36 Volt blower that I already owned and I'm keeping it because I need two blowers (one for my wife and one for me). I am up to seven Black & Decker tools that use the same 20 volt batteries.

3.0 out of 5 stars Fine if you already have the batteries
Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2023
Style: Circular Saw OnlyVerified Purchase
If I didn’t already have B&D batteries, I almost certainly would have returned this for another saw. The first one I ordered came with a package that appeared fine but a severely bent shoe. All I can figure is that someone dropped it, put it back in the box and returned it, and it was resold without inspecting it. Having seen that one, I knew this was very cheaply made, but going with a different brand would mean an expensive new battery system.

Both the upper and lower blade guards are plastic. The lower guard often snags when it encounters material instead of sliding out of the way as it should. The shoe is difficult to adjust to 90° and seems to really want to be 1-2° off. Dust management on circular saws is always bad but this is abysmal, it just pushes the wood everywhere. It’s lightweight, which can be excellent, but also means it wanders easily from a straight line.

I will use this on a track to cut sheet goods, but wouldn’t even consider using it on dimensional lumber. Adjusted square and with a track, it does a decent job on plywood, hardboard, and other sheet goods.

Several have mentioned it didn’t come with a blade. It does, but you have to take the cardboard insert fully out of the box to find the blade underneath. It doesn’t matter much - like most saws, the original blade is very low quality and you’ll want to replace it anyway.

Still giving it 3 stars as I know this is generally what to expect from one of these small circular saws, especially at this low price point.

4.0 out of 5 stars perfect for what it is.
Reviewed in Canada on November 25, 2023
Style: Circular Saw OnlyVerified Purchase
I read a lot of reviews complaining about this saw being underpowered. As a 20V Circular Saw using the same battery I use on a Drill or a leaf blower my expectations were for it to cut 2x4 and maybe a little plywood. I am at times in places where a corded drill just isn't practical and so having something that can do some light cuts was useful.

It worked exactly as I had hoped it would.

It is under powered but that is because it is powered by something with a 18v power supply (says 20 but that is max power not sustained). I don't expect it to have the power of something plugged into the 120v mains.

It cuts through a 2x4 without issue and will do small jobs perfectly. Which is what I would expect given it's power level.

If you want to cut 8' oak floor boards their entire length this might not be the right saw. But if you need to cut some 2x4s and some plywood to fix a fence 100m from the nearest plug... this does the job
