The importance of battery platform makes the Milwaukee compelling. I own a boat load of Milwaukee tools and use them every day for daily living. Evolution only has a small (almost non existent) use for there batteries. I eventually switched over to makita xgt 40volt and am working toward daily life with makita.

Evolution should give me a job designing their next mitre saw. All these tools company seem to run away with who can offer the largest cuts and sacrifice accuracy, compactness, lightness and safety features.

Nice review yet again. Sadly, I've no room or budget for either saw. I also believe in "Never say never. " I'm not on either battery platform, and the price point of the Evolution tools is attractive. And I have loyalty point from them. Take care & stay safe M8.

I didn't know Evolution had released this saw. I have the corded version, this looks quite a bit better, quite a bit more money, but it still looks competitively priced.

Good comparison, i enjoyed it. A question though, have you been sent the Milwaukee as well or is it your main saw? Are these gonna be part of long term testing? I run a corded metabo kgs 254, which has been amazing, but really want a battery one and one that i can fit into my newly completed workshop. Id love to keep mine long term but ideally want a fixed rail to save space so the makita 40v seems perfect but expensive 😢.

Both are great tool i am a milwaukee guy but it never hurts to be evolution person.

That’s crazy on the American version of the Milwaukee that LED light is a shadow line that’s positioned on the front of the guard of the saw. I honestly would not buy that saw without a shadow line.

How about testing the new Metabo mitres saws?

I would peraonally pick the evolution for longer run time and the fact it is $100 cheaper and the fact that the miter saw stand is significantly less expensive.

Great video. Am sorry m8 but a was ending mysslf at milwaaaake throughout the whole video. U said u got the evolution did u get the Milwaukee sent aswell?? I run the lumberjack 10" single bevel sliding compound mitre saw its a proper nixe one if you ever have to change. Keep videos coming. Hope yiur well. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍

I own mwkee. And got evol 225 single bevel mitre, dust extr and mitre table. Minus in dust extractor when small particle its clogs up quickly. I mean to quickly. Saw horse just to heavy. And mitre saw is atrocious. Bevel handle had to cut down as stuck on tight. Straight cut never was straight as fences total wank up😅. No chance to do 45 on bevel. I’ve watched all your vid and seen you moved fence. Did they improved them some how, so you don’t need calibration after? If its like a like then its no go at all. Great vid btw.

Milwaukee is the one for me because the evolution is not available in my location.

Isn’t the evolution saw exclusively for metal?

Milwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaukee 😉

Interesting comparison. I'm mainly on the Metabo platform and they have just recently released their 18v mitre saws in September this year. Purchased the 305mm version and its a beast at a price point of £399-£450 depending on retailer. The weight is surprisingly 17kg without battery which isn't bad for a 305mm machine. Has all the same features as these two saws e.g. shadowline, double bevel etc. and they're always doing freebies for batteries and saw blades and other tools if you spend over a certain amount. Metabo also have a 254mm version with weighs only 15kg without battery. Wierdly, retailers are pricing the 254mm version roughly the same price point as the 305mm in the region of £399. For an extra £20 quid I went with the 305mm and paired it with a Toughbuilt TBS-600 form Toolstation at around £175 at the time. it's quite large but very robust and pairs well with a large saw. Would love to see more people doing reviews of Metabo tools as they have very good quality especially their impact drivers and angle grinders which are best in class.

Milwaukee number one
