I selected the DCS510-18 because it was avaiable through Prime, touted its low vibration and high power-to-weight ratio, and it was branded by Makita. I knew the quality of their products, but wasn't aware of Makita making non-electric power tools. I gambled to an extent that they would not tarnish their brand by selling subpar products, even if manufactured by others.

I found that German elegance was not a false impression in the very useful first review written for this saw.

This doesn't fit the bill. I've had Stihls, Echos, and Husvarnas, and had good luck with them all. I'd recommend you look to one of those first for a new saw. I only went with this saw because of Makita's good reputation and the competitive pricing. I guess the value isn't there this time. There are a couple of positive reviews of this saw that chalk the starting problems mentioned in this and other reviews up to operator error. I have two responses to that. (1) The instructions are simple enough that even I can follow them to the letter. And occasionally I do get the sputter on the second or third pull, and then the saw works as advertised. But if I have to pull a... Read more |
