Excellent value saw. Solid build quality and more than accurate enough for the home DIY enthusiast. Previous reviews highlighted an issue with the dust bag, the bag captures more that 70-80% of the dust. I’m sure that would be improved with using a shop vacuum. Slight tearing on the timber but this is to be expected with a heavy toothed blade.
