What Customers Say About BOSCH Worm Drive Construction Saw w/ Rear Handle Model # 1677M:

It is worth the extra money, nice saw. I have used skill saws since the eighties, this has the best balance and weight.

That thing is nice for hanging on a joist or saw horse. I hope the engineers realize this and stop putting it on these saws. mine showed up without the saw hook which was a bummer. This saw is the same as the other bosch saws. the chrome is neat but I got them because they were cheap. I am glad it doesn't have the stupid chord plug in handle. heavy duty cast foot. If you have one chord and need to use 3 tools that thing is a huge hassle.

Love this saw, Left hand blade is easy to see, nice and quiet and powerful like other Bosch products

The built in rafter hook works great as well as the saws ability to cut bevels at 50 degrees. The Bosch saw cuts great, is easy to operate and has a good design. Very versital and worth every penny. Overall, this is the best saw I have ever used. Very similar to the Skil Mag77 worm drive saws.

cmon Bosch.This is a serious saw with a lot of power that will simply buzz through anything you put in front of it. My true test was 8/4 White Oak and I braced myself for kickback or bog-down.and almost lost control of the saw when it zipped though it like nothing. All-in-all it performs solidly well. Highly recommended.What I don't like:*This saw is heavy.

This saw might be a little overkill for what I need, but it does what I need VERY well. It's also a bucking bronco for the first 2 seconds after you fire it up, but after that it's smooth as silk. First, let me say this: I'm not in construction. I don't use this saw for framing or cutting rafters, etc. Scared me.*It's a nice low profile saw. I immediately replaced mine with a Freud Diablo 24 TPI Framing blade.sweeeeet.

It's a tad heavy so I'm not sure how guys on the job will use the "belt clip" without pulling their pants clean off. Really really really heavy. Lay the front of the saw flat on a surface, pull the trigger, and the right side of the base will jump a full inch off the table. I know it's a contractor's saw that is expected to be in use more than traveling, but I know a lot of circular saws that come with cases. Less machine means more view, better control.*I'm getting used to, and falling in love with using a "lefty" saw. This means you need to keep a death grip on the handle and keep it well away from your work-piece until the saw is up to speed.*NO CASE. I'm a furniture maker and I wanted a good agile saw for cutting rough lengths of stock and sheet goods.

It's deceptive because it's such a small profile saw, but you'll be surprised the first time you heft it.*Start up torque is immense. I don't like stabilizing the base with my hand so close to the blade, but you find other ways.*I never used the blade that came with it. There's something about a wormdrive saw.it can't be explained, you have to try it.What I like:*This saw, surprisingly, cuts like butter through *everything*. It's hard to get used to not leaning over to see your cut line, but once you try it, you won't go back.
