As header really, I have need of a circular saw for a few projects and I
wondered if battery ones were any good? I don't need to cut much more
than
18mm MDF at most. Are they any good for cutting laminate flooring or
would
be better off hiring a chop saw?

Thanks



I personally don't like them, tried two different ones belonging to work
mates, who also don't like them, and found that they don't have the OOMPH
you need to do any real work with them. Although, saying that, they were
good enough for cutting a couple of inch by inch wooden stakes in garden,
but they fell over when tried on anything bigger.
