Cons

The saw is very powerful but it has a very harsh start as mentioned in another review and a significant flash from the motor once you remove your hand from the trigger. It has not been used excessively, no site work etc. The dust collection is terribl...  Read More

Quality


I took a look at an evolution sliding mitre saw in b&q but i was not impressed with the quality of the build and fittings and t...  Read More


Easy to use and adjust and seems to cut very precisely with the led guide.


I don't bother with the extension arms either although no doubt some users would find them handy.

Packaging/appearance


Especially if you buy them at home depot in the statestheir 18v+ line is great for tools you use occasionally.

Competitiveness


Best mid priced tools on the market.


It cost 25% of the festool kapex 120 i use for furniture work but almost 75% as good.


It just built a 30 sqm deck and it sliced through 60x 200mm beams like butter.

    Dust everywhere except in said bag

    After two years of intermittent use i’ve found a potential fault on this machine


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    In use i’ve noticed that the stud moves and will suddenly lock the moving saw down just when you’re expecting it to move up this may just be peculiar to my own machine but it could have consequences

    As expected the laser doesn’t work now


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    There are two switches on the side of the handle for the red alignment laser and the white led lighting i guess these could have been automatic functions but conversely you do have the choice available as to whether to use them or not


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    There is also a screw clamp provided to hold down the work piece but as the saw is single bevel and you will need to swap sides for some cuts it would have been useful if a second clamp had been provided not sure if this can be purchased as an accessory
