Milwaukee 2732-20 M18 Fuel Cordless Circular Saw Review

Design

Specifications like the magnesium footplate and guards elevate the overall performance of the Milwaukee 2732-20. Making it a rugged and reliable pick for versatile use. And given that it also features extra, handy tools like the integrated rafter hook, LED light, dust port, and electric brake, it’s only a matter of time that you, too, should feel the need to buy this one.

I, for one, absolutely love this saw. It’s perfect for long-term use. And feels incredibly comfortable and powerful in the hand.

Speaking of power, comparing Milwaukee on its own terms, it’s a beast. It doesn’t drag and I highly recommend it for its anti-dragging and stable base alone.

For a cordless circular saw, it certainly doesn’t miss out. You also have the dust attachment tool or the ‘dust port’ which is compatible with all standard dust collection systems. It also offers a vacuum adapter for quick and efficient use.

Power

The Milwaukee 2732-20 is equipped with its durable and super-reliable REDLINK Plus intelligence system. This ensures smooth and efficient performance to prevent overloading.

During prolonged and heavy-duty use, most of the damage happens to the battery. All your efforts at reviving the battery and prevent it from damaging will go in vain. That’s how the battery usually dies eventually.

In this circular saw, the brushless motor combined with the REDLINK Plus intelligent technology reduces overload, heating, and any other further damage. The 15-amp motor runs smoothly, going up to 750 cuts per charge.

The battery is fast so it increases run-time and the power efficiency on the circular saw.

Ergonomics

The Milwaukee does include a dust port and LED light. The integrated dust port connects with a single snap. And it has an additional vacuum adapter for you to use.

The LED light illuminates the areas that you need to have a clear sight of. Thus, boosting productivity during cutting. Not only that, but it also promotes more precise and consistent cutting performance which is a huge benefit for a beginner!

The rafter hook gives you an extra hand with regard to storage and portability. Considering that Milwaukee is relatively heavier, it makes sense to have the rafter hook to assist you.

Moving on, I especially liked the handle design of the Milwaukee. It’s quite ergonomically user-friendly. It feels very natural, supportive, and comfortable to hold. The grip is anti-slip and I can easily pick up the saw without worrying about uneven weight distribution.

There’s a trigger safety button right within reach from the handle. It’s positioned at the exact spot where I’d like it to be. So nothing misses my eyesight when I’m swamped with work. The LED light, rafter hook, sturdy handle, and trigger release offer an authentic experience.

Speed

Milwaukee sets the record with a top speed ranking at a full depth that is 2-1/2-inch rip cuts. So the cutting speed, considering that it has a cordless body and a brushless motor, is fast and consistent.

Granted that you get the proper blades installed that complement the motor and battery performance of the Milwaukee. It offers a well-distributed performance value that packs a lot of power without kickbacks or overheating.

The speed can cut through 2x material including lumber and plywood. Even if you use high-performance blades, it will not slow the motor down. It’s quite impressive how much this saw can do on a single charge.
