Seriously badass saw. All about the power here, 2,065 W machine. If you're a construction worker used to dealing with heavy things, this saw is light for what it does. Ive had all the other competitor saws, Milwaukee, Makita, Porter cable etc etc. When it comes to frozen wet P.T. lumber these other saws bog down pretty badly. I cut the ends off of 2 completely frozen 2x12's at a time, on a 45 degree angle and thats the real first test. See what your saw really has for power. This Dewalt is the most powerful I've found. Its worth every single cent i paid for it. Depth of cut adjustment is a little tricky at first to get used to but other than that, if you don't already own one of these you should get one, that is if you're not afraid of using a 15 LB saw on the side of a building. I use my Milwaukee for the regular cutting but when it comes to 2 layers of plywood at a time or wet/partially frozen P.T. its a winner. Wood pinching a bit? This will run its way through it without stopping. Only other saw I've used with this much power is their worm drive circ saw..
