Product Review
If you're looking for unparalleled power, here's the saw for you. In addition to the sheer brawn, Bosch really has finessed this machine, and the beauty is in the details. Our favorite feature is the Direct Connect system: The tool itself has no power cord, just a receptacle for your extension cord and a super locking mechanism to keep the cord connected. It's so secure that you can actually lower the tool off scaffolding to the ground by the cord. Next time you accidentally cut the cord, it won't put the whole saw out of commission: Just grab another extension cord. Storage is a breeze, too, because there's no integrated cord to tangle with. We love the left-side blade for unmatched line of sight, the worm drive gear train will hold up for years under the toughest conditions. Changing depths and bevels are fast, easy, single-lever operations, and you'll like the lower guard design when slicing off a narrow piece because it does not snag. If we had to name a down side, the saw is a bit heavy, but that's a negligible detail in a piece of machinery like this.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste
Manufacturer Description
With innovations in visibility, snag-reduction, bevel capacity, and even storage, this 7-1/4-inch wormdrive construction saw from Bosch is one smooth operator. A 15 amp motor and a wormdrive gear train mean ultimate durability and maximum tool life. Bosch's inventive Direct Connect Cord System lets you plug the extension cord directly into the saw for convenient tool storage. A left blade design offers better visibility, and a rear-handle means straighter, faster cuts. An anti-snag lower guard reduces hang-ups when making narrow cutoffs. The saw also features a built-in saw hook, 50-degree bevel capacity with a positive stop at 45 degrees, and a magnesium waffle-design footplate for greater strength and stability.

- Plug extension cord directly into the tool for easy storage and fewer hang-ups

Customer Reviews & Comments
This is the Skil Magnesium Wormdrive Saw in blue (Bosch owns Skil). Framers in my area swear by the durability and power of the Skil wormdrive saw (though not the Skil brand). This saw offers some features over the Skil version though, there is a framing hook that flips out so you can hook it on a rafter or on your ladder, the blade gaurd has a lip that will retract it while making bevel and miter cuts, the base plate is also very strong magnesium (I bought this saw because my old saws base plate was no longer flat causing much more frequent kicks and blade pinches) and it uses an extension cord that plugs into the base. I like wormdrives/hypoid because the blade is on the left so it is easily visible over typical sidewinders saws. The saw is heavier compared to typical sidewinders, though with the magnesium cover and base plate, it is lighter than the Makita hypoid. Overall I like this saw, it has lots of power which is nice when doing a 20' rip. One thing about this saw, you have to check and (I presume) change oil in it! I have yet to do this, I don't even know how often I'm supposed to do this, but I have to assume that being able to replace the oil would offer longer tool life, though I've only had the saw for ~6 months, so can't speak for the tools longevity, though I know people who've had the Skil wormdrive for years.
