The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less.

Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
The 2733-20 M18 Fuel brings dual bevel sliding compound capability to a battery-powered platform, which removes the need for extension cords on jobsites. At 31.9 pounds and measuring 24.8 inches long by 16.14 inches wide by 25 inches tall, it is transportable without being featherweight. The published capacity is 4 inches and the blade is high speed steel.
At $588.00, this is a tool-only price, meaning batteries and charger are purchased separately. For buyers already in the M18 ecosystem, that cost is absorbed across existing batteries. For newcomers, the total system investment climbs noticeably. The 4.8-star rating across 115 reviews points to high satisfaction among owners who did invest.
The motor is listed at 58.8 watts in the published spec data. Buyers evaluating power output against corded competitors should factor in that alongside the portability advantage. The review count is moderate, so buyers may also want to cross-reference owner feedback on forums dedicated to the M18 platform.
