Very happy with the dhs680, corded type performance when ripping 2x treated timber, plus, as a diyer, the convenience and safety of no cord. I confess that I own an earlier version of this saw that is still serving me very well, but the improvements on the newer model transform the performance and handling to such a degree that my kit seems old and dated now. The DHS680 boasts high power cutting with automaticspeed control, which changes according to load condition; on light duty - high speed rotation mode, on heavy duty - high torque mode. Only reviews that feature the label "Verified Review" have been checked to ensure that the author actually used or purchased the product.

This Makita also boasts an automatic speed function that regulates the blade speed according to load and the little blower aimed at the kerf near the built-in LED light helps clear the cut line.

Working outside away from a power source clearly didn’t bother us at all as the spare battery was charged. With deep discharge a weak spot of lithium ion, the provision of a “fuel gauge” in the form of a series of lights on the body under the main handle helps the user to monitor the best time to change batteries. Contacted the seller, first my message was ignored finally got a response and they are refusing to send a battery out which I have paid for!

I tried and tried to find things that I could improve on the saw, but I think that anything I might say would seem very picky, so I will end by saying that the Makita DHS680 Brushless Circular Saw is just pretty damn good and I would take one on site any day – until the next improved model comes along of course!

Single lever depth control provides a maximum cut of up to 57mm and this saw is capable of bevel cuts up to 50°. Toolstop Limited is a credit broker, not a lender and is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FRN 737231). The DHS680 is Makita's first brushless circular saw, which becomes one of the latest member of Makita's impressive line up of 18v Lithium-ion cordless tools. The cast alloy base is solid and accurately made, as are the upper and lower blade guards, giving a feeling that this tool is made for a long service life.

Dust collection via the optional vac port with a vacuum extractor is very efficient where you have access to mains power for the extractor. The Makita DHS680 165mm 18v Cordless Brushless Circular Saw is a compact and lightweight tool with an ergonomic soft grip handle designed for wood and metal cutting. One thing that is completely new to me is the inclusion of the strong foldaway bent steel hook on the body. My site partner and I spent a whole afternoon using this saw doing some simple shelf and fence fitting at a private house.There are 2 dust collection ports for maximum efficiency: one located below the blade and the other at the back of the saw.
