Our verdict

The 20V battery platform and 4 inch cutting capacity make this a reasonable cordless option for occasional cutting tasks; check what exactly that capacity figure refers to before buying if precision matters.

Overview

The CRAFTSMAN CMCS714M1 is a battery powered saw running on a 20 volt pack, with a high speed steel cutting component and a listed cutting capacity of 4 inches. It weighs 21.8 pounds and measures 23 by 21.25 by 12 inches.

Craftsman's V20 battery platform covers a wide range of outdoor and shop tools, and the CMCS714M1's 800 RPM operating speed and 80 watt motor point to a saw geared toward controlled cutting rather than fast ripping. The 4 inch capacity figure likely marks the maximum material thickness or branch diameter it's rated for, though the listing doesn't spell that out explicitly.

Who it's for

Suited to homeowners and light landscaping or DIY use who want a cordless saw for cutting branches or material up to around 4 inches without running a cord. Less suited to continuous professional use where a gas or corded tool with more sustained power would outlast one battery's runtime.

Pros and cons

Pros

Cordless 20V battery operation
High speed steel cutting component for edge retention
4 inch cutting capacity for moderate sized material

Cons

21.8 pounds is heavy for extended one handed use
800 RPM and 80 watts suggest limited power for dense material

Performance notes

The 20 volt battery drives the saw at 800 RPM with an 80 watt motor, moderate figures that suggest controlled, lower speed cutting rather than fast ripping through thick stock. At 21.8 pounds it's on the heavier side for a handheld cordless tool, and the high speed steel component should hold an edge through repeated cuts better than a basic carbon steel blade.
