Brilliant cutting range also 45 cuts and its not too heavy as ive used it for a few hours now cutting skirting boards. The laser is great also, you get alot for the money
I find this saw far superior to one I previously bought. I’m looking forward to building my new workbench. The only downside for me is the handle seems to attach in an awkward place and I find it quite heavy. (I am a female in her mid 60’s and have broken both wrists over the years!)
Haven’t used this yet but it was easy to put together except I couldn’t see where to put the extra handle as it wasn’t in the instructions. I worked it out in the end.
The machine itself is easy to use and very robust and well up to any job I’ve used it for the only thing I had to adjust was the laser guide which was straightforward sing a carpenter’s square. Very pleased with the machine and service which was second to none.
Nice piece of kit of reasonable quality and good value at this pricepoint. Very easy to set up and use, the kit comes with selection of blades for multiple uses. I used in recent bathroom refurb and this tool was very effective and convenient for cutting multi-panel and flooring and framing and metal profile etc all with the same blade. The led / laser guide light is useful but seems like a cheap add on. Pity it didn’t come with a good quality kit box, even if cost is increased or as an option. I would recommend this item and would buy it again.
PRO’s.
Only had it today, but I have worked with it for a couple of hours, and I am impressed with the quality of the build. The motor is very quiet, and virtually no vibration. The Lasor is a nice touch, that I don’t have on any of my other hand saws. The cable is a good length, which is unusual these days, and getting six blades is excellent.
CON’s
The dust extractor tubes should be just straight, as opposed to a right angle. Luckily, I had a piece of plastic tube in my shed which fit the extraction outlet perfectly, so I cut about 150mm length off it, wrapped some kitchen tissue around half of it, with some duck tape to hold it on, and pushed it into my vac hose. This meant that the hose came horizontally away from the saw, and did not interfere with the cutting action.
The only other thing I didn’t like, was the fact that if you try sawing on a standard height bench and you need to adjust the depth of cut to around 10mm, the handle of the saw raises up to around 45degrees, so you practically have to be double jointed to be able to use the saw, which is actually painful. It would be fine if there was some sort of swivel joint on the handle, so that it could be adjusted according to the depth setting, to counteract the raising of the handle. I should stress that If you cut at full depth, there is not really a problem.
