Hello all!

I plan on getting my first circular saw (7 1/2") soon and need some advice. I had planned on getting the Festool TS55 until I read up on the EZ system. Now I think I will go with that. Here are my requirements.

1) I am a VERY occasional woodworker without a dedicated workshop. I have to pull my cars out of my garage just to set ANYTHING up to work. (It's why I have chosen the EZ over the Festool system)
2) Of course able to work with the EZ system.
3) I will be working with MDF in the future so dust collection is a must.
4) As with anyone price is a factor. I need to keep it under $200 just for the saw.

I know the forum favorites seem to be the Hilti, PC Mag, Worx. Has anyone used a couple of these and able to comment on their dust collection? Are their better options? Festool is renown for their DC systems. Do any of these compare in that regard?

Thanks for all the advice!
