Where it sits among 190mm circular saws

Scaled against the 29 circular saws with a 190mm blade we list, so other sizes aren't in the mix. Not a score: bigger isn't always better for your job.

The verdictOur take

The DHS783 is the AWS version of the DHS782: the same brushless 190mm twin-18V saw at 6000rpm and 62.5mm depth, with the wireless unit for automatic extractor start supplied in the MakPac. Choose it over the DHS782 if you run a Makita AWS extractor.

Tool weight worked out by adding each pack's weight to the bare tool, using the makers' figures. It takes two batteries, so each figure includes two packs. The maker's own with-battery figure can differ slightly. We may earn a commission on retailer links.
