Does it come with a battery?

The 2733-20 is sold as a bare tool. Batteries and a charger are separate, and Milwaukee's 600-cut figure assumes an M18 REDLITHIUM XC5.0 pack.

What can it cut that a 10 in. saw can?

Less. The 7-1/4 in. blade handles base, casing and most trim, but wide boards and tall nested crown that a 10 in. slider manages will exceed its capacity.

Is the shadow line as good as a laser?

Owners generally prefer it. It casts the blade's own shadow, so the line matches the kerf and stays visible in bright light where lasers wash out.

Can it bevel both directions?

Yes. It is a dual-bevel saw, so you can tilt the head left or right instead of turning the workpiece around.

Who should buy it over a corded saw?

Trim and remodel crews working in occupied homes or away from outlets. If you mostly cut big stock in a shop, a corded 10 or 12 in. saw does more for less.

What reviewers say

Owners treat it as a trim saw that happens to be cordless: they praise the light weight, the shadow line and the dual bevel, and accept the smaller blade as the price of portability. Complaints center on capacity limits and on battery drain when cutting hard stock all day.

What people mention

PortabilityPraisedOwners say the 28 lb weight and carry handles make it easy to move from room to room.
Shadow linePraisedUsers find the shadow cut line quicker and clearer to align than a laser.
CapacityCriticisedThe 7-1/4 in. blade limits how wide a board and how tall a nested crown it can cut.
Battery lifeMixedCuts per charge are strong in trim, but hard stock drains packs faster than the rating suggests.
BevelPraisedDual bevel saves flipping the workpiece when cutting both sides of a corner.

About the Milwaukee M18 FUEL 7-1/4 in. Cordless Brushless Dual-Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw

The Milwaukee M18 FUEL 7-1/4 in. Dual Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw (model 2733-20) is a cordless sliding compound miter saw for crosscuts, miter cuts, bevel cuts and trim work. It uses a POWERSTATE brushless motor and runs on the M18 battery platform. With an M18 REDLITHIUM XC5.0 battery, it delivers up to 5,000 RPM and over 600 cuts per charge.

The saw handles up to a 2 x 8 laid flat at 90 degrees. It has a 3-1/2 in. vertical capacity with the base against the fence and a 3-5/8 in. nested crown capacity. Dual bevel stops at 45 and 48 degrees let you make opposing bevel cuts without flipping the material. A cam locking miter detent system with detent override allows repeatable common angles and quick non-detent adjustments.

A shadow cut line indicator uses an LED that projects light onto both sides of the blade. This casts a shadow the width of the blade kerf as the cutting reference. The saw weighs 28 lbs with battery and has integrated top and side carry handles.
