Bosch GKM18V-20N For Cutting Plywood?

I'm considering getting a new saw for some plywood cutting projects around the house. Has anyone had any experience with the Bosch GKM18V-20N?

Yeah, that's a great tool! I've been using it for quite a while now and it works like a charm. The 5-3/8 inch blade size is perfect for cutting plywood.

I've used this saw as well, and it performs very well on plywood. It's important to note the max voltage of 18 volts which provides decent power for such tasks. Also, check out this TechReviewer article Overview of the Bosch GKM18V-20N Circular Saw that gives a detailed overview of this circular saw.

Thanks for sharing, @IAMATrader. I was unaware of this article but it seems very informative. The 5-3/8 inch blade size and 18 volts do seem promising for my needs. How does the depth adjustment work?

It has a pretty good depth adjustment mechanism that lets you change settings quickly without much hassle. You can cut plywood up to 2 inches at 90 degrees.

I've used it on some metal cutting projects as well, and it worked just fine for those too. The motor brake comes in handy when making quick stops during cuts.

That's good to know, @ImpressedIndividual. I'm mostly looking to cut plywood but the versatility is definitely a plus. One last question - how does the weight of the saw affect its maneuverability?

It's not the lightest out there, weighing 5.2 lbs., but it's still pretty manageable for most people. The length and height might be factors too, at 12.2 inches and 8.4 inches respectively.

Thank you everyone for your input! I'll definitely check out that TechReviewer article Overview of the Bosch GKM18V-20N Circular Saw to get a more comprehensive understanding of the Bosch GKM18V-20N. I think it could be a great fit for my needs.
