Ensemble scie alternative sans fil, Flexvolt(MD), 1 1/8", sans balai, 60 V

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this for my husband and I was the first to try it out, it has amazing power and cuts through anything like a hot knife through butter! Highly recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pros plenty of power Ease of blade change. Comfortable to use Cons NO RAFTER HOOK!!!! No longer has the multiple blade positions as previous dewalt sawzall.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love how much power this saw has. Had a few cedar boards that needed demo-ing. Cut through them like butter. My only complaint is that it's pretty heavy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This saw is a beast Real happy with the product It has good run time and cuts through anything great for demolition its a good add to the fleet.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great sawzal, lots of power. Batteries are big so they last. No complaints about this product at all.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I dont have the 20v but I have the 18v. Still like it and works well. Would love the 20v.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It pops the blade out it's almost too much power. Beats dragging a cord around all day

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used this recip saw for a week now and very impressed with the power. It seriously does not bog down and just keeps asking for more punishment. It is heavier than my previous 20v recip saws but it’s not bad. Working over head with battery on, it can be heavy but the power makes to cut quickly with a good blade. One upside of the weight, when cutting vertically, the weight helps pull the saw through the cut without having to really push down on the saw. 2 things I really miss are: the adjustable shoe so you can move the shoe to cut on different parts of the blade. It gives you a lot longer use of a single blade. I really miss this feature. The second would be the place where the blade hooks on no longer has the 2 different spots for the blade to be vertical and horizontal. I use this feature a lot in tight areas and cutting base plates when framing walls. It was a great feature so you didn’t have to try cutting flush with the floor and using the tip to finish the cut. Which we all know slips out sometimes and then you end up bending or breaking the blade. I would like to see this blade attachment of horizontal and vertical brought back. It seems silly but those 2 features are worth their weight in gold sometimes. Overall, solid tool, massive power and run time. I am impressed and in demolition, it beat a corded recip saw I had hands down without the cord. If you have 60v tools already, this is a great addition and if you want to step into the 60v world, this is a great start. I recommend this saw highly and definitely worth the price.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Upon opening the box I saw the saw came in a beautiful heavy duty Dewalt carrying bag. The charger is compact sized and easily hung up in a shop or work trailer. The 40v battery has a meter on the front so you can see how much of a charge is left. The tool itself is heavy duty, has a rubberized finish in places, and has a quick connect feature for the blades. The only thing I didn’t like about the aesthetics of the tool is the guide is fixed, so if you’re using a longer blade you can’t adjust it to get more bite out of the blade on longer blades. The charger is super quiet compared to some other battery chargers I own. After charging the battery I attached the tool. The tool/battery combo is a little on the heavy side, but nothing that wasn’t manageable. I decided to go in my pasture and test it out on some chicken trees that have plagued my land for some time now. I can’t say enough good things about how much power this thing has. It tore through the branches of the chicken trees and even cut them down to stumps like they were paper. All in all I cut down about 30 small trees and trimmed a bunch of branches. How much battery did I use? About 1 bar (3 total) was all it used. The tool never struggled and just ate the trees like it was nothing. I switched out to a bi-metal blade and put it to the test again. It tore through 1/4inch angle Orrin like a hot knife through butter. The blades wore out before even using another bar of the battery. I have a corded sawzall that isn’t as powerful as this tool. Plus the added convenience of battery power. I definitely recommend this to anyone needing tons of power in a portable package.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This review will be comparing the 60V DCS389 saw to an older 18V DC385 saw that I have had for years. For the purpose of my testing, I used the DCA1820 20V MAX to 18V adapter in the DC385. This is because I have replaced my failing 18V packs with the newer 20V packs. During the comparison, a new DWA4169 blade was used in each saw to eliminate blade differences. The positives: The DCS389 has an amazing power increase over the older DC385. This older saw is approaching 16-17 years of use and has been a good saw over the years, but the power is a fraction of the new DSC389, even when running on 20V. The DCS389 has power to spare when doing carpenter and demolition style cutting. In my comparison I used dimensional lumber and OSB sheeting to simulate the cutting one may normally do. I also embedded screws in the lumber to simulate cutting through what one may encounter in normal use of demolition. In my comparison, the DCS389 did not pull down when cutting like its older counterpart. The power of the 60V pack and the brushless motor really sets this saw apart from the older generations. The older DC385 would do the work, but at a much slower pace and without as clean a cut. The light is an interesting feature of the DCS389. While there have not been many times where I have needed the light in my uses, I can see having it could be beneficial in areas where there isn't as much light on projects. I do like the feature and am happy it was incorporated in this design. The DCS also is a smoother operating saw as well. This is due to upgrades in design and components but also due to the substantial weight increase over the DC385. The trigger and variable speed of the DCS389 is also far superior to my older DC385. The blade change chuck really has not changed all that much outside of the fact the DCS389 is spring loaded and locks itself while the DC385 needs to be pushed back to lock it. Both are very usable to me. The negative: The weight. The overall weight is the only downfall that I will honestly put on the saw but it could also be seen one of its most helpful features. As tested, the DCS389 tipped the scales at 10 pounds 14 ounces with a 9AH Flexvolt pack where as my older DC385 was only 6 pounds 9 ounces using the DCA1820 with a 4AH 20V pack. This is not a small difference and in fact, when I had my wife, who is not used to operating these saws, use both of these, she did not like the DCS389 due to the greater weight. She preferred the weight of the DC385. My son who is in high school and getting into the shop classes made the same observations about the weight but chose the DCS389 in the end in spite of the weight. Now I had mentioned that it while weight was a negative it was also a helpful feature. Because of the increased weight, the DCS389 exhibits less vibration to the user as you use it in our experience as a family. This would translate into an easier time controlling the saw and overall cleaner cuts from our experience. Having extra weight certainly helps stabilize the saw and keep it more comfortable to operate while cutting. I believe that the weight would be an issue for extended periods overhead work or if you did not have the forearm strength to handle the tool. For the reason of the arm strength, my wife would take the DC385 over the DCS389. I am overall, very impressed with the DCS389. The saw a solid saw and feels good in the hands. Despite the weight, it feels balanced and works well in different positions. The looks of the saw are sleek, modern, and eye catching in my opinion. My son also likes the overall look. The power difference of the saw when compared to a DC385 is remarkable. There is simply no comparison. The DCS389 is going to have the power to do whatever you would ask of it. The run time is good and will keep you working much longer than previous generations of these saws. I would recommend this saw for anyone looking to upgrade to a new powerhouse reciprocating saw in the Dewalt line but yet have a saw with operation that you are very familiar to.
