I abuse track saws every day as a kitchen installer, constantly cutting panels of various thicknesses and materials. Composite, chipboard, MDF, aluminum faced laminate, really anything goes. Had many track saw, only one that lasted for more than a year is DeWalt. It's been dropped and got wet many times. As long as you keep changing blades and occasionally tightening track guides, the thing just cuts perfect and true all day long. I go through three 6ah batteries a day - that's a lot of cuts, no other battery saw so far can keep up with this workload every day.

I’ve only used the Festool and the DeWalt. For me the Festool wins hands down. But I think in the UK the DeWalt is a lot cheaper. Especially if you already have the DeWalt batteries. The DeWalt range is second to none so I have no issue with that preference.

The Dewalt, in my opinion is the Dewalt truly needs to be updated but Dewalt isn’t going to take the time or spend the money to do so. I own a construction company. All of our trim crews run either Festool or Makita. This isn’t because they dislike Dewalt. 100% of them run Dewalt table saws, Dewalt 780 miter saws, and the majority run Dewalt cordless power tools or Milwaukee cordless power tools. I have used the Makita for several years but sold it last week. I’m trying to decide on the replacement and am watching reviews.

Ive got the dewalt and you guys are right about the blade, i put Diablo in my saw and it made it way better. It makes basically factory grade cuts now and slices through just about anything with ease. I love the plunge mechanism actually. With my 9ah batteries runtime is unreal. Its definitely very powerful. In regards to lack of 45 degree stop, I always use my square to set the saw to 45. Just dont trust stops when you only have one shot at making a cut. Overall dewalt is definitely not the best track saw buts its right up there in terms of accuracy. If you’re already on the platform i wouldnt get another brand tbh, not enough of a jump to make it worthwhile unless its Mafell.

The price here in the USA is much more reasonable at a high of $70 USD before 20%-25% Bosch accessory discounts which are fairly frequent. Sometimes the go much cheaper on Amazon: I got a couple for $30 USD for the 48-tooth blade, and $20 USD for the 24-tooth blade. Only those two blades are available right now here, not any of the specialty blades.

I've been waiting on Milwaukee to release a track saw for years now. We got teased with some rumors earlier this year, but nope. I won't wait much longer. I want a blade left track saw, dammit! WTF aren't there any of those. Kreg makes a corded version, but I don't want a corded saw and wouldn't get into another battery platform if Kreg had a proprietary battery anyway. I've almost sprung for the Makita several times and may just cave and get it. One of the features I really like is the Festool model that stays attached to the track for precise portable fast cutting. I believe if Milwaukee came out with a left bladed, track retained saw, they'd instantly get a huge share of the track saw market. But what do I know? Haha! Keep up the great work gents!

Great review, I'm on the dewalt 18v platform looking at upgrading to a few flexvolt tools and was going to go dewalt, but also been left handed as well I've crossed that off my list. Hikoki are releasing the 36v witch looks identical to the Metabo but a higher voltage. So I think that's the one. Plus they do the battery 1/2 router. Amazing video and thanks for helping me decide.

Excellent review. I went through a journey of track saws last year. Started off purchasing the corded Makita but returned it due to a bowed track. I also wasn't a fan of the lack of a riving knife and the extremely short cord. I then went to the new Kreg corded saw which was OK however the saw doesn't bevel correctly so it will put a 45 degree cut in your splinter guard which makes it useless for 90 degree cuts. I finally went with the Festool TS 55 K that you reviewed and I agree it's a dream to use. I love the bluetooth integration with my CT MIDI-I. I believe you can also hack together a switched outlet using the legacy CT bluetooth module. I only found two negatives. First, I wish it still had a riving knife although it's not a huge deal because of the kickback protection. Second, I had to add a whole new battery platform. I'd like to think I would go with Makita cordless everything if I had to do it all over again however only the new 40v Makita has kickback protection and their platform is missing a lineup of decent nailers as well as some specialty tools like a pex expander. I suppose the days of being on a single platform are gone. Even within a brand you'll have different voltages....

Being you have done a lot of work to get this review to you tube it may have snuck under your noses without you knowing. I have a cordless Makita TS for three years now and very happy with it, [ for many reasons ] If you use the "Makita silencer specialised " blade for melamine it cuts perfectly with no chip out. see ya later

Loved the reviews boys. Have used festool a fair bit, makita as well, but own dewalt saw. Have multiple platforms I run, including Milwaukee ( bit of a tool fiend really), so that wasn’t the deciding factor for me. There were 2 reasons What was the first, and which I didn’t notice in your review, is the fact that the dewalt can be laid down on its guard so the saw can cut horizontally ( see the two black glides) and used to cut down doors that are already hung. (Yes you can actually use a track saw without a track😂😂😂😂) And secondly, the blade is one of the closest to the edge of the guard out of all the saws. Allows cuts approximately 10-13 mm away from a wall if used hand held. Did I mention the double sided track 🤔 Keep up the great work fellas 👍

Owned my ts55 for 8 years. Been back to the shop once. Of the cordless is similar I'd give it a 5 for useabiity too. However always found it gutless and moved to 110v DeWalt for heavier work. Prefer the plunge on it tbh. But concur I hate the depth adjustment. The bevel wouldn't irritate me as much but it does itself up when trying to adjust. Just grabbed a flexvolt after my fes finally died. My old 18v DeWalt got me out of a hole with lion adapter's this week.

Thanks for the good review. Just a note on cut quality - Festool has a scribe depth setting for 1st cuts in materials like melamine and how can makita get a decent score in cut quality when the thin kerf blade runs off in one of your tests. The Makita blade struggles to not wonder off when cutting any hardwood thicker than 20mm, defeats the purpose of using a straight rail.

hey guys, great vid!! I'm heavily invested in the dewalt platform atm but am open to dipping into the makita system for a few tools . I'm currently deciding between the 36v makita, 54v dewalt and the corded festool. would replacing the blade on the dewalt fix the results from your first cutting test with all the tear out? and which would you guys go for?
@trashes_to_treasures

Hey Lachlan, although I am not one of the Oz Tool Talk Team, here’s my two cents: I have worked a lot with the Festool corded and worked with the DeWalt corded. Besides that, I have seen most of the track saw reviews and tests available on YT. The festool is a blast, no question. The Dewalt is great, too, especially with a different blade. Check ten square metre workshop‘s channel here to get more insight into this saw. The makita has got a lot of good reviews so far, but the blade deflection was mentioned several times. In my opinion, with the festool you get: 👍 absolutely great precision, super clean cuts 👍 good power 👍 one of the best UXs on the market 🤨 a premium price line (for a premium tool, to be fair…) With the Dewalt you get a mix of really good engineering with really bad design decisions, based on: 👍 great power 👍 a great UX on the plunge mechanism (once you get used to the plunge mechanism, you gonna love it. Your wrist will not have to move with the saw but stay in the same position through the whole cut. And to be fair, you won’t be using 5 different track saws all day long, so that comparison doesn’t count here in my eyes) 👍 a top performance battery platform with an enormous variety of tools 🤨 as mentioned, a really strange UX with the bevel settings - who doesn’t add stops at 45 degrees and doesn’t include a minus 1 bevel these days? 🤨 an unusable saw for left handed people (the corded one doesn’t have that problem though since there is no battery to crush your knuckles) 🤦‍♀️ an absolute fail at 45 degrees: when you tilt the saw to 45 degrees, the cut line will no longer align with the 90 degree cut line on the track but will be some mm off. My personal biggest wtf moment with this saw. Again, this does not apply to the corded version which stays in line no matter if 90 degree or any other bevel. I have the DeWalt platform on all my 18/54V tools, but I won’t buy the cordless track saw. If the offset cut line, the missing 45 degree stop and the not really good dust collection were not a deal breaker, the impossibility of use for lefties like me is it. After all my research, the winner is the Metabo. Precision is great, power is great, UX is great, it’s on the CAS, uses one battery only (can be super annoying charging two batteries with only one charger…), the price is great. To me personally, there is no reason to get a festool or a mafell. I might have the money, but I don’t use a track saw every workday for 8 hours a day. If that was the case, I’d get a mafell. My most important points are: • accuracy • power • ease of use • one battery instead of two • price As mentioned, they all might have their pros and cons, but for me, the metabo is the best overall deal. Hope that helps 🙂

@@trashes_to_treasures hey man, thank you so much!! You’re an absolute legend for writing all this up for me. It’s been a hard choice as I am on the dewalt platform too! Only thing is I don’t want to over invest in the cordless festool hence the corded option vs the 54v dewalt. I wouldn’t be using it every day but when I do want to use it, it could be outside on jobs, could be in the workshop cutting timber down for furniture which I’d prefer cleaner and more accurate cuts so I think the festool is the way I’m going to have to go, even could see if I could pick up a cheap dewalt to try out first and then maybe getting the festool later on sale Thank you again!

@@lachlankren4231 hey Lachlan, thank you for your words. I think this is what KZbin should be for - sharing knowledge and helping each other out 🙂 Yes, getting a used Dewalt Saw to test (and verify / falsify the offset!) might be a good option. Your requirements sound basically like the ones that I have - not in daily use, very accurate cuts are needed sometimes, but not on a daily basis. I can only repeat myself: check out the Metabo (Model KT 18 LTX 66 BL) if you haven’t already. I watched a lot of reviews of many different plunge saws currently on the market, and this one seems like the best overall deal to me. I currently could even afford a mafell, but honestly, why should I buy it? If I am honest with myself, I’d never fully use it to the extent it is actually capable of. I think about the same goes for the Festool. It’s a beautiful saw made for everyday professional woodworkers; so if you’re trying to find a good excuse to satisfy your fetish and get it, I’d be totally with you 😇 I’ll buy the metabo once my job is finished and payed and hope I get what I am expecting. Curious which one you will get. Maybe let us all know in a review video!

like the video, next time can you compare the cleaness cut with the same blade on every saw that will make the comparaison apple to apple

Great review guys. I love my Makita, but they are so good to use it makes me want to spend the extra just to get the Festool groove. Funny how they can be so enjoyable to use. Love your stuff. Very helpful. Cheers PP

If you're testing units for "power" why not try cutting something like aluminum? Wood is so soft it really isn't much of a torque test. Good video though!

Cutting through 40mm of hardwood is PLENTY hard enough, and much tougher than cutting through aluminium sheet. Having said that, I'd always advise cutting through alu slowly...
