Highlights
Quality
Understand you can’t do furniture quality cutting with this, but for everything else a homeowner will need to do it’s great.
Plenty of power with the 15 amp motor.
Price
Lifetime warranty - better price point - more features.
The bad: for this price i can find very little wrong with this saw.
Ridgid is made, probably overseas, by emerson electronics.
Packaging/appearance
Also, the miter gauge has some play in the runnners.
Fence is accurate right out of the box.
Competitiveness
They have these 3 other brands beat on saws at this price point.
The riving knife really is godsend versus having a splitter.

Dust collection is ok but you will need to vacuum out underneath after you use it

The only issues i have are it has no soft start feature nor does the vacuum port on the motor help much because it’s not sealed leaving large gaps for dust to escape
