Makita XCC01Z 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 5" Wet/Dry Masonry Saw, AWS® Capable, Tool Only

This saw worked perfectly to cut 2 vessel sinks into a quartz counter top. The coolant bottle works very well and I’m impressed as to how leak free it is if you take one of the other reviewers recommendation and wrap the fitting threads with plumbers/pipe tape. It didn’t leak a drop. Also, just about everything I could find said that the included blade is not good for cutting quartz and engineered stone but it cut quartz perfectly with absolutely no chipping. I did make 2 passes though, maybe that helped. Either way, 5 stars!!

Fabulous for detail, shaped, plunge or large format tile cut outs. Accurate, clean lines on porcelain tile with a festool track saw & adjusted adapter. Wouldn't use all day, but great 2nd saw on the job. I use it with a smoother cutting blade. Battery life is pretty good on tile. The water resevoir tank leaks from the top due to air gap so it functions, going to try a wet sponge on the blade instead for quick smaller cuts. Haven't used the hose function yet, don't plan on lots of long cuts, but seems functional with care of plastic fittings.

This saw was bought to simplify fitting 8x16 pavers, and -- within limits -- it did just that. The 5" blade isn't enough to cut completely through a paver, but that's what hammers are for. A bevel cut on a paver? 2 passes after careful marking and cutting. Mandated water + paver dust = messy work area + messy cleanup.Dunno if it was needed, but I got a segmented blade, and it worked well. I also put painter's tape on the shoe to protect against scratches from the pavers. The tape lasted 1 pass.If you don't already have an angle grinder, 1 of those + a diamond blade will help with more finicky cuts and finishing off any hammer work.Oh yeah: Read the instructions for other limitations.1 other suggestion: Add a 10-mm box wrench to this tool's bag. The hex wrench supplied for blade changes isn't long enough to avoid skinned-or-worse knuckles.

While doing my travertine path I had to cut extra pieces by hand. Makita did not disappoint!!!

Haven't used yet but I'm sure it will work great!

This saw is weak and struggled to cut quartz , keep in mind this saw would consume a full 6ah battery 🔋 on a 26 inches cut , also the water system is a joke , all the connections leak and make a mess. I own many makita tools and this one is just not a comparable quality makita toll.

I didn't get any battery or charger for this tool so I don't know how it works and now I'm going to have to pay for another shipment to get battery and delay my job because I ordered a battery powered too but no battery was sent with it how am I going to use it?

I purchased this to cut some granite countertops. This is extremely easy to use and I found it to make clean and true cuts in my granite countertop that I needed to widen the opening for my new stove. The water option (hose or small container that has quick connects) keep the dust down. You can use it to dry cut, but you need to buy an adapter if you want to vacuum or have a dust bag attached.This was perfect for what I needed, but I could see this being a key tool in much larger tile cutting, stone countertop cutting jobs.
