Our take on the DeWalt DCS578B 7-1/4 in. Circular Saw W/ DCB609 9.0Ah Battery and DCW600B Compact Router
A three-piece DeWalt kit built around the 60V MAX 7-1/4 in. circular saw, the FLEXVOLT 9.0Ah battery and the 20V MAX compact router. The saw is DeWalt's top cordless circular saw, rated up to 47% more powerful than the DCS575, with a 2-9/16 in. cut at 90 degrees and an electric brake. The FLEXVOLT battery runs at 60V in the saw and at 20V in the router, where it gives long runtime. It suits carpenters and remodelers who want one battery across a heavy cutting tool and a trim router. Against buying the tools separately, it pairs a 60V-class saw with a compact router that rivals sell as bare tools only.
- Saw delivers 60V power with an electric brake
- 2-9/16 in. depth of cut at 90 degrees
- FLEXVOLT battery runs 20V tools at long runtime
- Router has dual LEDs and a variable speed dial
- One battery covers both tools
- Saw and battery are heavy for overhead or one-handed work
- No charger or blade included in the bundle
- Router is 20V only, so it does not use the battery's 60V mode
- Battery is large and adds bulk to the compact router

What reviewers say
Owners of the DCS578 rate it among the strongest cordless circular saws, close to corded power with the convenience of a brake. The DCW600 router is well liked for its light weight and smooth speed control. The main complaints are weight and the cost of the FLEXVOLT battery system.
- PowerPraisedOwners say the saw cuts thick hardwood and framing lumber without bogging down.
- WeightCriticisedThe saw with the 9.0Ah battery is heavy, which tires users in overhead or one-handed cuts.
- BrakePraisedThe electric brake stops the blade fast, which owners call a safety plus.
- Router controlPraisedThe compact router is light and the variable speed dial is easy to set.
- Battery costCriticisedBuyers find FLEXVOLT batteries and chargers costly to add to the kit.

Questions and answers

- Yes. It uses 7-1/4 in. circular saw blades and cuts up to 2-9/16 in. deep at 90 degrees. No blade is included in the bundle.
- Can the FLEXVOLT battery run the router?
- Yes. The DCB609 is dual voltage, so it powers the 20V MAX router and delivers long runtime there. In the 60V saw it runs at 60V.
- Is a charger included?
- No. The bundle lists the saw, the battery and the router only, so you need a DeWalt 20V/60V charger you already own or buy separately.
