Still cutting with makita becuase the 12.0 battery takes over an hour and a half to charge, and a pair of makita 6.0 batteries can charge in 45 minutes simultaniously on the same charger.
Both great tools its just really comes to preference. Im a Milwaukee fan all day, but i do admit ive never owned a makita. So who knows but i love my Milwaukee. Why? it just get shit done n has a great warranty.
1st thing the mikata saw is about 4 years older than the super saw 2nd thing no 1 goes to work to build muscles if u have a lot of cutting to do its better to have a lighter note comfortable tool that way ur arms don't get tired as fast plume with the vibration the super saw vibrants way more with feel funny and makes ur hand cramp up after a while 3rd the reason y the makita has the 2 batteries is cause any person that works with makita already would have the batteries u won't have to go out and buy a big heavy costly battery and even with 2 batteries in the saw its still lighter and the cut timing isn't that far apart even for a 4 year differents between the 2 tools The super saw front holding area is so bulky that if u don't get a firm grip on the tool it could be dangerous especially a tools that vibrants that much 4thly makita also have the Djr187z with carries a single battery and still sits the best in its class even tho its 4 years old So I would say who needs a dozer if when u go home in the evening ur arms r shot?? And u feel like u been in the gym while at work I say work smarter not harder😬👍
The majority of the people voting for milwaukee is because patriotism.... The fact is, makita tools are just so much comfortable to use and better build
I always try for Made in the USA & I'm from Canada.... Learned over the years that Made In USA hand tools are pretty good & not so hard to source. Most of what Channellock, Wilde, Wright et make serve my needs perfectly. As for power tools, I'm a bit biased to Makita & Hitachi (Hikoki or now Metabo HPT), but I like some of the DeWalt stuff like Corded Saws. That's not to say Makita does everything perfectly, they got some awful nailers. You just gotta feel what's good & steer clear of the bad stuff.
I used makita bosch .. and now Milwaukee and i need to say Makita and Bosch are shit... you know how hard it is to get Milwaukee im Austria... comfortabel .. is hard to say i need to say i like the small Milwauker tools the are lighter and usually as goodas higher voltage Tools of Makita and Bosch....^^ I hate america but 2 things i like about them there awesome tools and tesla..^^
Milwaukee is good until they burn up which dont take long they are made in China shit Idk where y'all think it's made in usa.. makita is way more reliable then Milwaukee.. Milwaukee just markets themselves better in the US
@@bigboy815s I mainly use Makita and a lot of their stuff is now also made in China . That said , Makita is the only independent manufacturer and China isn’t what it used to be meaning , China can make some great shit as they have the tools and knowledge but if it’s from China and crap that’s what the manufacturer is paying them to make
I think the Milwaukee wins this tool dual because it has more features as well as its faster as well as beastly and has orbital I have the Milwaukee super sawzall Only problem i have had with the Milwaukee is that the shoe lever sometimes gets stuck because of the rubber overmold @ToolReviewZone
Looking to get the Makita I’m hoping to catch a sale on it I just got the 36 volt circular saw and another on way I got 100 off and two extra batteries on each and used it today and is very smooth so glad to see the review 👍🏻
Troy this sawzall is on clearance at home depot, I just picked one up a few days ago,for 150.00 the kit with the batteries and charger, the guy at home depot said they weren't getting any more,you could talk to the manager and buy the demo saw,I also have 2 of the rear handle 36 makita and 2 the sidewinder saws loved getting all the batteries with everything
MAKITA Built better Less vibration Better ergonomics Lighter Batteries charge faster Vast Makita 18v/36v line-up. When you buy a Makita, you better like it because you will have it for 10 years...minimum.
I prefer Makita becuase the 12.0 battery takes over an hour and a half to charge, and a pair of Makita 6.0 batteries can charge in 45 minutes simultaniously on the same charger. Milwaukee makes great tools and so does Makita, but having to buy an additional 12.0 battery instead of running the 6.0 batteries that i already have is a drawback. At my tradeschool we have a six bay Milwaukee charger and it charges them one at a time. Also my pair of 6.0 batteries were a little cheaper than a 12.0 milwaukee. Dont’ get me wrong Milwaukee is great i just prefer the Makita battery system as well as some of their corporate ethics. I have used Milwaukee a lot although i do not own any.
I've never used the Makita so I cannot judge it , however from what I watched I wouldn't feel undergunned with it either...but...I do not like the two battery idea all that much. Now with that being said everyone knows that I'm a Milwaukee guy through and through....I bought this Milwaukee saw for two reasons..1..I wanted it and 2 I got a killer deal on it. I thought that it would be the end all be all of sawzalls...but I was very wrong. I find myself grabbing the regular fuel model or even my very old and we'll used brushed saw because unless you are demoing a house or old deck it gets heavy quick....it does have a shit ton of power but the other two saws are a little more user friendly. I'm not complaining about the super sawzall because it has its place but be prepared to put on your man panties if you plan on you using it all day above your head. Anyhoo sorry about the long winded post....great informative vid brother...
Two batteries, really takes what an extra second to plug in and then what. Zero difference apart from more flexible multiple uses and quicker to charge both if you have a dual charger
That......... was.......... the GREATEST video I've seen all week! Talk about tool porn! OMG! I've watched it 3 times and going back for more. 😎👍 Just today, i cut through a 2x4 using Red Sonja (and a general purpose Lenox blade) and was faster than my buddy's corded Skilsaw circ saw. True story. Thanks, Clint, and God bless! P.S. nevermind the gnome, he's just not happy with anyone under 100k subs. We'll get you there! 😁👊
Makita should do this 36v Sawzall like the AVT one: variable speed and 3 orbital mode switch. That one its a best!! and durable, mine it's like 11 years old and keeps going ✌
Yo TRZ! I've only had two recips in my life. The first was the dewalt xrp 18v with Nicad battery and the other is the Super sawzall ,which I basically only use it for tree work and I really like it. Add a diablo pruning blade and it's a monster. Great vid my dude! Stay safe and diligent!!
Здравствуйте!Начнём по порядку я считаю,что победу одержала макита,так как считаю на милке 12ам,а на маките 10ам,плюс макита без маятникого хода.Так, что макита номер 1,как всегда
I's say the Milwaukee for 2 big reasons...1 it only needs one battery and 2 the orbital feature make to cut faster....If I was shopping for one, and i seen any brand that needed 2 batteries to run it, I would immediately dismiss it....and btw good video
They both seem to be really good obviously I wouldn't go with the Milwaukee just because that's the battery platform I'm on and that's all the tools I buy are Milwaukee but I purchased the Milwaukee M18 brushless fuel Sawzall without the orbital action because they're both 3000 Strokes the motors the same just basically the weight is lighter because of the orbital action it does not have after using that Souls all day that extra weight really sucks to weigh down your arms especially if you had to cut above you all day but that's why I also have the Milwaukee brushless fuel M18 rip saw even lighter and more compact
I absolutely think the 2 battery concept is great you can buy twin pack battery’s for $160 vs $250 most of the time for 12ah take one of the makita battery’s put it in 1 of your smaller tools keep the weight down on the smaller tools when you don’t need the bigger battery nice ! And a dual battery charger will charge faster than it will take you to charge one bigger battery I have used both I personally do not see it as detrimental and if one of the older battery’s goes bad just replace one less expensive battery guess it’s all in the way you look at it .
I have Milwaukee, Dewalt, and Makita battery powered tools. All are workhorses but there’s something that sets Makita apart….User Friendliness and Comfort. The battery on the Makita is Far easier to pop out than it’s competitor’s. Smoothness is another difference. Makita is more for the everyday user in most cases. My Dewalt sawzall works good but is vibration hell to use.
The vibration with the Milwaukee is obvious. Look back at vid, you are a shaking brother with orbit off. I have both platforms, but I lean to Makita. Why, in my humble opinion, ergonomics with smooth power delivery, and less noise(pitch). Either tool will get the job done. Love you channel.👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏🙏🙏
I've owned Milwaukee and makita. With similar use my Milwaukee gear has lasted 3/4 years before burning out or becoming problematic. 10 years on my makita stuff is still going strong. Fair to say I'm sticking with makita
moss thomas sorry for last reply, press send before finishing my comment. I have Makita 18v various tools 10 to 15 years old still working , with original battery. I like Milwaukee , but Makita still going!👌👌👌👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏🙏🙏
Well, it all comes to what battery platform you own. I would never think of buying a Makita Saw plus extra charger and TWO batteries, if I owned a Milwaukee platform. Same, other way around. But feature to price ratio, I think Milwaukee wins here. Orbital action, plus you only need one battery.
Nice video. I'm not biased at all because I own both Milwaukee and Makita tools. They're both great brands and they both have their pluses and minuses. So I own the Milwaukee cordless super sawzall and I will confirm, it is a beast! But, it is heavy as hell and very bulky. Trying to cut rigid pipe with it where you're trying to hold the saw with one hand and the pipe and press down on the saw with the other hand like I used to do with the corded sawzall is just impossible. Way too heavy and too big to control using the methods that I've used for many years as an electrician. I also own the Makita 18 volt sawzall and I have to say, due to the weight and size, it's as pleasure to use. The specs are very similar (speed and blade stroke length) but it's just so much more comfortable to use and easier to control. My one other comment is, I think you should compare the 18 volt Makita XRJ05Z to the Milwaukee Fuel sawzall. Both are 18 volts. Both don't have the orbital action, and the specs are nearly identical. Big Red might have a slight advantage using a 8.0 HO red lithium ion battery but if you use either a 5.0 ah battery in both (although I think Makita now makes a 6.0 battery too, just like Milwaukee has) it would be a pretty close race. You really can't go wrong with either tool. They're both well made and great tools. The one other comment I have is the chargers. Makita makes a great dual port battery charger that charges 2, 5.0 ah batteries simultaneously in 45 minute. That is a great feature. I know Milwaukee just came out with a dual port battery charger that also charges both batteries simultaneously but it's expensive as hell and takes longer to charge the same size battery as the Makita. So even though Milwaukee has more battery options, I really like the Makita battery charging system and simpler batteries. Plus I've had Makita batteries last me over 8 years. I've never had that longevity with Milwaukee batteries and can testify if anything I've had some Milwaukee batteries fail on me after just 2 or 3 years of not very heavy use. So to me, I give an edge to the Makita battery and charging system. Sorry for the novel, but just wanted to share my opinion. Great job though. I love watching the head to head comparisons.
Awesome feedback David, really appreciated. I'll see if I can get the 18v Makita. I'm going to put the 36v up against the ridgid OCTANE tomorrow and see how they do👊
@David M. I agree with your opinion about the Makita charging platform. It's my main cordless platform. I also have Dewalt, Milwaukee (12V) and Ridgid (12V and 18V). Dewalt is the worst when it comes to chargers. They sell so many 18/20V chargers. Some of the chargers I can't use with their higher AH batteries. And I'm suppose to keep track? Makita sells most of their kits with either a single bay or dual (simultaneous) bay rapid charger that are FAN cooled for cooling both the batteries and the charger (designed that way) at no extra charge! I mean I don't have to buy them separately like Milwaukee. Dewalt just began selling some of their kits with a singe bay rapid charger. No serious gripes with my Makitas. Keeping the LiIon batteries cool extends their life, especially when charging. Hope you and your family stay safe and well.
Thanks for your reply. I have a lot of Rigid cordless tools too. I have seen, but don't have the regular Rigid sawzall but I have the Rigid Mega max tool set that has the Inter changeable heads including the sawzall head. It's a good tool too but not quite up to Milwaukee or Makita performance or longevity. I also used to own (still do but can't get the batteries) the Rigid 24 volt tools if you remember them. The batteries wouldn't even last a year. The tools were good but if the batteries suck, what's the point? I only recently started getting back into the Milwaukee brand again (since spring 2019) because their tools do perform well, but the jury, to me at least, is still out on battery performance. Time will tell I guess. But from my experience the Makita batteries and charging system is just plain awesome!
The winner is whichever platform you currently own. I have dozens of m18 tools and about 20 m18 batteries ( yeah I know) and it’s a bit late to add another platform
I have the older one-battery Makita with an adjustable shoe. Clearly not as powerful at the Milwaukee, but it's plenty of saw for me, and I find it comfortable to use. But I'm just a DYI type, so I don't need much.
@@ToolReviewZone LOL, not much no, am a sculptor but i have the smaller milwaukee which works best when the shoe is tight against the work,, isn't that what its for?
@@SandcastleAndy yea your right about the shoe against the workpiece but the shoe pivots so even though hes rocking the saw the shoe is still staying against the workpiece.
Too bad Milwaukee isn't an American owned company anymore(so I've read). I'm pretty sure some Chinese company bought the rights to the name. So its made in China and foreign owned. They are just riding the reputation of a once great a American company. Ill not buy any more Milwaukee tools, and I own several. At least Makita, though now made in China, is owned by the same company that started the name.
It's a Hong Kong-based company. And they've been under TTI for like 16 or so years, so this is nothing new. And Makita makes stuff all over the world. They have UK, US, Japan and China manufacturing/assembling facilities. They've had Chinese-made products since the 80s, so that's not really new either.
Makita is a great platform and it’s drills are amazing however I’m more invested in Milwaukee and the dual batteries on the Makita I prefer to just have one on the tool
Milwaukee makes some of the cheapest recip saws the break easy in my experience the plastic unlock feature on the saws tear up to easy we have a drawer full of sawzalls that are messed up because of that
I have never owned a Makita so take this with a grain of salt but the 2 battery deal cool concept but it would burn me up if I had to wait to charge one battery and then need 2 for my recip saw plus 2 batteries are heavy I do own Milwaukee 12.0 I actually use them in my hammer drills and threader and sometimes when I want a work out I’ll slap it in my impact but makita gotta do something with the battery placement maybe put them under the body of the saw but then it’s as wide as a 3 week payday is long so I dunno
I own jus 2 makita single battery tools and the rest dewalt and get what your saying but he said in the video and if you look it up 2 makita 5ah weigh less then 1 m18 12.0 battery. 1.4 lbs x 2=2.8 lbs vs 3.35 lbs so makita still lighter
Let's just face it Milwaukee smashes everything and if they had a dual power with two battery output find the point of qualifying the super Sawzall is equivalent to 15 amp power there would be no point
Makita. If you're getting paid by the hour .
Or working all day. Your still cutting with the makita hours after you have vibrated yourself to death with the milwaukee
@@landcruiser801 You're still cutting with Makita hours after, because the Milwaukee is already finished.
Eh sorry milwaukee is like the muscle car of power tools, loud and shaky, good no doubt! But some prefer a little more elegance.
Still cutting with makita becuase the 12.0 battery takes over an hour and a half to charge, and a pair of makita 6.0 batteries can charge in 45 minutes simultaniously on the same charger.
Makita... less vibration and they hit it on the first try not 3 gens later 🤣.
I agree with Thomas Morse 👍
Does that mean something special if I want to buy a new saw, or is it only relevant if I want to buy a saw 10 years old?
Makita will always look better. Love the way their tools look and sound.
The Makita isn't slower, that's a feature. They know it's a fun saw, and they want to make sure you have time to enjoy it. 😁
Haha
good one!
Both great tools its just really comes to preference. Im a Milwaukee fan all day, but i do admit ive never owned a makita. So who knows but i love my Milwaukee. Why? it just get shit done n has a great warranty.
1st thing the mikata saw is about 4 years older than the super saw 2nd thing no 1 goes to work to build muscles if u have a lot of cutting to do its better to have a lighter note comfortable tool that way ur arms don't get tired as fast plume with the vibration the super saw vibrants way more with feel funny and makes ur hand cramp up after a while
3rd the reason y the makita has the 2 batteries is cause any person that works with makita already would have the batteries u won't have to go out and buy a big heavy costly battery and even with 2 batteries in the saw its still lighter and the cut timing isn't that far apart even for a 4 year differents between the 2 tools
The super saw front holding area is so bulky that if u don't get a firm grip on the tool it could be dangerous especially a tools that vibrants that much
4thly makita also have the Djr187z with carries a single battery and still sits the best in its class even tho its 4 years old
So I would say who needs a dozer if when u go home in the evening ur arms r shot?? And u feel like u been in the gym while at work
I say work smarter not harder😬👍
Where I live I get 3 5ah batteries for the price of one 12ah milwaukee battery

@David M. I agree with your opinion about the Makita charging platform. It's my main cordless platform. I also have Dewalt, Milwaukee (12V) and Ridgid (12V and 18V). Dewalt is the worst when it comes to chargers. They sell so many 18/20V chargers. Some of the chargers I can't use with their higher AH batteries. And I'm suppose to keep track? Makita sells most of their kits with either a single bay or dual (simultaneous) bay rapid charger that are FAN cooled for cooling both the batteries and the charger (designed that way) at no extra charge! I mean I don't have to buy them separately like Milwaukee. Dewalt just began selling some of their kits with a singe bay rapid charger. No serious gripes with my Makitas. Keeping the LiIon batteries cool extends their life, especially when charging.
Hope you and your family stay safe and well.
Thanks for your reply. I have a lot of Rigid cordless tools too.
I have seen, but don't have the regular Rigid sawzall but I have the Rigid Mega max tool set that has the Inter changeable heads including the sawzall head. It's a good tool too but not quite up to Milwaukee or Makita performance or longevity.
I also used to own (still do but can't get the batteries) the Rigid 24 volt tools if you remember them. The batteries wouldn't even last a year. The tools were good but if the batteries suck, what's the point?
I only recently started getting back into the Milwaukee brand again (since spring 2019) because their tools do perform well, but the jury, to me at least, is still out on battery performance. Time will tell I guess.
But from my experience the Makita batteries and charging system is just plain awesome!
The makita does have an adjustable shoe, oh wait 36v... well I have 18v and it does. Also 18v cuts just fine
you are correct.
I noticed orbital on any recip seems to make the cut straighter
That's a good point. Actually seems easier to control and just blast through quickly
@@ToolReviewZone i agree with easier to control with orbital on as well @ToolReviewZone
Everyone smash that like
Thanks brother 👊
Why not start the video a 3:59m??? That what everybody here for
got your hands on the 40v makita?
Sure did. Review coming soon
@@ToolReviewZone odd like to know how it compares to the super sawzall. Especially vibration and comfort
Great video. Now Milwaukee goes against Ridgid octane 🙃.
Great video Clint @ToolReviewZone
Thanks brother
My Metabo HPT UVP.....destroys these saws.
Lomé my Milwaukee super sawzall
The winner is whichever platform you currently own. I have dozens of m18 tools and about 20 m18 batteries ( yeah I know) and it’s a bit late to add another platform
I have the older one-battery Makita with an adjustable shoe. Clearly not as powerful at the Milwaukee, but it's plenty of saw for me, and I find it comfortable to use. But I'm just a DYI type, so I don't need much.
Can u make payment on this
Whats all this rockin crap..push the shoe against tge wood and let tool do its job duh?
You bust not use a recip saw very much...duh
@@ToolReviewZone LOL, not much no, am a sculptor but i have the smaller milwaukee which works best when the shoe is tight against the work,, isn't that what its for?
@@SandcastleAndy yea your right about the shoe against the workpiece but the shoe pivots so even though hes rocking the saw the shoe is still staying against the workpiece.
Too bad Milwaukee isn't an American owned company anymore(so I've read). I'm pretty sure some Chinese company bought the rights to the name. So its made in China and foreign owned. They are just riding the reputation of a once great a American company. Ill not buy any more Milwaukee tools, and I own several. At least Makita, though now made in China, is owned by the same company that started the name.
It's a Hong Kong-based company. And they've been under TTI for like 16 or so years, so this is nothing new.
And Makita makes stuff all over the world. They have UK, US, Japan and China manufacturing/assembling facilities. They've had Chinese-made products since the 80s, so that's not really new either.
Makita is a great platform and it’s drills are amazing however I’m more invested in Milwaukee and the dual batteries on the Makita I prefer to just have one on the tool
I just picked up the super sawzall and it’s awesome heavy but awesome
Bad little makita nome
He's just so pesky Antonio!!!!
@@ToolReviewZone how dare he laugh at you one of these days your going to catch him i swear @ToolReviewZone
Hahaha, he is quite bro, but ima figure something out
Go Milwaukee
Buena pelea
12ah vs 10ah
You don't no how to use that tool stop ot
And you don't know how to spell or put a sentence together
Now do the milwaukee vs the xgt makita recip
Great video brother. 🤜🤛
Thanks Denny!!!!!
Milwaukee, the pioneer of the(Sawzall) recip saw.💪🏽✊🏽🤟🏽👍🏽
Yeah buddy 👊
Milwaukee makes some of the cheapest recip saws the break easy in my experience the plastic unlock feature on the saws tear up to easy we have a drawer full of sawzalls that are messed up because of that
@@bigboy815s Shut up
All the blades looked used.
I have never owned a Makita so take this with a grain of salt but the 2 battery deal cool concept but it would burn me up if I had to wait to charge one battery and then need 2 for my recip saw plus 2 batteries are heavy I do own Milwaukee 12.0 I actually use them in my hammer drills and threader and sometimes when I want a work out I’ll slap it in my impact but makita gotta do something with the battery placement maybe put them under the body of the saw but then it’s as wide as a 3 week payday is long so I dunno
I own jus 2 makita single battery tools and the rest dewalt and get what your saying but he said in the video and if you look it up 2 makita 5ah weigh less then 1 m18 12.0 battery. 1.4 lbs x 2=2.8 lbs vs 3.35 lbs so makita still lighter
the giant seam down the centre of the makita just makes it look like a cheap toy to me..
Milwaukiyee🙌🙌🙌
Thanks for the vote justin!!!
@@ToolReviewZone always man, loving every vid 👌
Let's just face it Milwaukee smashes everything and if they had a dual power with two battery output find the point of qualifying the super Sawzall is equivalent to 15 amp power there would be no point
That Milwaukee super sawsaw is a beast the Makita is nice two, but it's no match for the Milwaukee the inventor of the sawsaw.
yessir milwaukee always stronger and more powerful than makita. this is nothing new. milwaukee for the win as expected
