Just got word from Tobias. Unfortunately we still don't know anything from Mafell. He's been bugging them though.

That top package actually looks like a good deal, though the 'supplied with' info is conflicting with the image & depending where you read.
At the bottom it says dust bag is included.

wonder if the extra battery weight helps any to counter balance with 45º bevel cuts? Pic1 Pic2

Ohan: battery is not bulkier than any other comparable machine - it is the battery enclosure that makes it look bulky. I use the same battery on the KSS 40 and it is very light in use. Put it in a black dress and it will look slimmer.

Looked at the pictures and yes, it looks like a chunky construction. Hopefully it is well balanced.

It's been so long since I've enquired about the kss 50 cordless. Can someone please remind me again, is it brushless?

I wonder why these two new saws have been delayed so long? launched at a German show in May,then we were told they would be on sale in June,soon we will be into September and still they are nowhere to be seen!if I had pre-ordered one I would be wanting answers,surely it can not be a technical problem to have got to the launch stage?so what else could it be?contractual or manufacturing difficulties? this delay takes the shine off the originally exciting news.

Not very confidence inspiring for prospective owners either. Premature announcements or product "releases" may dissuade some potential owners from buying into alternative brands, but only so far as actual delivery is assured. Delays in delivery can actually reverse this effect. Users need to feel confidence in their chosen brand. Wake up Mafell!

Well I've preordered one. At least it's been paid for for a couple months so the sting is gone.

I have preordered one too. Stopped bugging them about it since it was to no avail and the dealer did not get any firm answers from Mafell. Will change my order to "PURE" - without batteries - since I have more than I can use. It seems to be in stock at a few dealerships in Germany but none that ship to Sweden AFAIK and I haven't sourced up a PURE unit in stock anywhere yet. I could really use one on the next project starting in two weeks. But I ain't holding my breath...
