I DID EXTENSIVE SHOPPING BEFORE CHOOSING THE GRIZZLY.IT IS MADE IN CHINA.IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A "MADE IN THE USA" SAW THE PRICE WILL JUMP UP TO OVER $2000.00. EVERY ONE IN THIS PRICE RANGE WILL BE FORIEGN MADE.ACTUALLY EVERY BRAND I LOOKED AT, FROM CRAFTSMAN TO JET TO HARBOR FREIGHT, LOOKS LIKE THE SAME EXACT MODEL.THE GRIZZLY WAS EASY TO ASSEMBLE AND THE QUALITY IS DECENT.THE JAWS WILL HOLD 6 INCH MATERIAL AND THE HYDRAULIC ASSISTIS A NICE FEATURE.THE CUTS ARE CRISP AND PRETTY ACCURATE.IT HAS WHEELS, BUT IS NOT VERY MOBILE FOR HANDYMAN USE OR FARM USETHIS SAW WILL BE OK.
Very good results, one thing I wish it had is a coolant pan and return to the pump. There was a problem with the packaging of the panals for the base.They were in plastic bags and in shipping some minor damage to paint was present. Overall this is a very good unit. Also when the base panals were painted none of the tapped holes were protected from paint. Also came pre-wired for 110 volts can be changed to 220 single phase. If a person uses the proper blade,speed,feed this machine does a great job.
