Overview
The Makita 5477NB carries a solid 4.7-star average from 1,000 verified owner reviews at a $194.55 price point. However, the product listing does not publish detailed specifications such as voltage, RPM, weight, or blade capacity, making a direct spec-by-spec comparison against other models in this category difficult.
With 0 units reported bought last month, current demand appears dormant. This could reflect inventory status or a model transitioning toward a newer replacement rather than active production. Buyers who know and trust this specific model from prior use are better positioned to evaluate the purchase than first-time buyers comparing on specs.
Based on its owner review score and Makita's reputation among tradespeople, the 5477NB has a history of reliable performance. New buyers who need to compare figures on paper will find the lack of published data a genuine obstacle at this price.
