Customer Reviews
Weighs a ton and cuts perfect. 
2007-12-19
Tried a few other saws and this one is by far the best. Super solid and worth every penny. Cuts 2.5 x 2.5 x 1/4 steel perfectly. Buy it and you won't be disappointed!
Top Notch 2007-11-26
This tool was top of the line from all the selections as far as I'm concerned. It is solidly built without being to heavy to move. The spark guard is a nice feature. Adjustments are intuitive & simple to make. Handle is ergonomic & has a smooth solid motion.
Quality Saw 2007-10-20
I received my saw in excellent condition. It replaced my Makita 12 inch which is about 20+ years old. It has the power to do the cutting job. I especially like the "D" handle. It is easy to operate on a higher surface. This is a quality machine that I can highly recommend.
Works ok 
2007-09-09
Previously had a cheap chopsaw and it worked great but the motor was going bad, so I decided to spend the bucks on a Milwaukee.
Had a problem from the start after recieving chop saw. Blade was already installed with the "FIX-Tec" nut, and I checked to make sure it was tight by hand.
I put in a piece of 1/2" round stock and started to cut. I got about 1/4" into it and the blade started flopping all over the place. I checked the FIX-Tec nut and it was a little loose so I removed it and saw that the metal band in the center of the wheel had come out and was distorted. Bad wheel or FIX-Tec nut?
Luckily they also put a bag in the box with a spanner wrench and nut to use in place of the FIX-Tec nut so I went to town and got another wheel.
The saw works ok but still bogs down as bad as a cheap chopsaw.
I emailed Customer Service and they were great about sending all the parts that got screwed up (new wheel, FIX-Tec nut, wheel flanges).
It's OK 2007-05-01
Let's get to it quickly with the pros and cons:
Pros:
- powerful motor - my breaker will trip before the motor shows any sign of bogging down
- hefty machine, no vibration
- Vise clamps down well on piece
Cons:
- Vise only lets you go up to a 45 degree cut, lot of others let you go to 30 degrees. This is kind of important if you're doing saddle cuts on pipe
- straight cuts happen with a new blade, but you start getting skewed cuts as the blade wears
- the tool less blade change was tightened so hard from the factory that I had to users pliers to twist it loose. Have to use pliers most of the time now to yank the twist nut loose
Conclusion: I think this machine can use an upgraded vise that allows the piece to be held at 30 degrees. I mostly use a cold cut saw these days, but the abrasive saw still has its place, and you can't go wrong with any of the major brands.
Heavy Duty! 2008-07-16
This is a very brawny, well made tool. Much better than the competition (the only one I've seen that is even close is the DeWalt, but it is no competition.) A typical Milwaukee tool--excellent!
Really good 2008-05-03
This is the best chop saw I've ever used. I sent many years in a repair shop, and cut lots of iron. It would have been a better saw than I ever had to use. The quick angle change feature is really nice. I would recommend this to anyone.
GREAT SAW 2008-04-10
I just got my new chop saw. I was cutting angle, flatbar, and square tubing. It cut through everything with ease, even 2 1/2 x 2 1/2 x 1/4 squre tubing. That impressed me.

Saw if very powerful and does the jobs I have very well. It is as advertised.
Milwaukee 6180-20 cutoff saw 2008-02-20
I have used other abrasive cutoff saws that can't match the efficient quality of this saw. It's extremely powerfull and cuts through metal with speed and ease.
