The sound is painful to the ears it so high pitched. Besides that it cuts great. I would suggest buying the larger batterys.

    As you tension the blade, you can see the body/case bending. The smaller model I actually returned because the blade started to cut the flimsy case. Wish it ran on 2 batteries, and had metal reinforcement for the blade tension, not plastic.

    I work in HVAC and this has proven itself to be indispensable on the job site. From cutting 3-inch PVC to 3 and 4 in black pipe, the saw handles at all effortlessly. I wish I had bought this years ago.
