Overview
Not a battery saw, this Bosch CM8S runs from household current with a brushless motor and a carbide blade. It is sold as a bare tool with attachments, and the handle is plastic.
A brushless motor and carbide blade suit cutting wood, and the wattage figure is high. The limitation is the vague contents: the attachments are not named and the saw style is never spelled out.
Who it's for
A shop with a stable bench or stand and mains power suits a heavy corded saw. Those needing portability or a named saw type should look at a different listing.
Pros and cons
- Carbide blade material
- Wood surface recommendation
- High wattage rating
- Saw style never stated
- Attachments not itemized
- Heavy to move
Performance notes
A brushless motor delivers power efficiently, and the wattage rating hints at how much load it can drive. Carbide tooth tips resist wear in wood. The tooth count and cutting angle set the kind of cuts it can make.
