This is a quality product, just as expected. The one drawback is that I have never gotten as comfortable with the left blade design as I thought I would.
I was particularly glad I purchased the blade brake as it adds a measure of added safety. I love the blade offset on this saw. Other saws I have used have had uneven offsets which make setting a cutting guide on plywood a nightmare. I am very happy with the weight but I do exercise an added measure of care as I feel the magnesium frame might not fair well with a fall onto a concrete slab. This saw has ample power and the visibility on the blade left is great.
I used the adjustable exhaust outside two days ago. It's powerful, easy to use and lightweight. It took two seconds to fix the problem. I turned the exhaust vent toward the left, and the wind carried the chips away. This saw has exceeded my expectations. The exhaust was in the normal position (like other saws). This is the best saw that I've ever used. As I was cutting some wood, the wind was blowing the chips into my face.
However, do not believe the note that it comes with a case. Seems well made and the table looks very good. Did not expect cheap bag and inadequate brake for this much money. The electric brake still allows the blade to spin for a good 3 seconds before it stops. Received saw today. It does not. I would return it, but I need it now so will keep it. It comes with a very cheap bag that does nothing to protect the saw and does not even have a pocket for saw blades or the manual.
It was as advertised.a little heavy, but it is 10 lbs.Otherwise, it is a great too an will last a good long time
