The verdictOur take

The UniversalSaw 18V-100 sits between the EasySaw 18V-70 and AdvancedSaw 18V-140, cutting 100mm in wood and 8mm in steel. It adds pendulum action, a worklight and the CutControl line guide over the EasySaw, and weighs the same 1.6kg bare as the AdvancedSaw. The AdvancedSaw goes deeper (140mm) and faster (3,000 spm) and has a brushless motor.
