I have used it a bit and it seems to work really nicely. For the price, this was a very slightly looking used saw.maybe once or twice. Other than a few scrapes (very small) I would have thought it brand new. I would defintely buy again. Packed nicely with all instructions.
Easy to use and the handling is great. I LOVE IT. Cuts wood like butter. Not too loud. Great for cutting pieces of wood around the house.
No, it doesn't perform like the $300 DeWalt, but it doesn't cost that either.The comments about checking the blade alignment (in both planes) were correct. Also, if you want the laser light guide, Amazon has got those to add-on to this saw.Pardon me, but I've got some molding to finish. It cuts well & I'm pleased.BTW, save the $24 shipping and wait 3-4 more days with "super saver" shipping. If you're a home handyman or light construction pro, you'll like this saw. The saw as delivered was alittle off in both, but pretty easy to align and lock in. :) The only reason I didn't give it a 5 star was that I think it should come aligned as a factory reconditioned unit.Other than that, it looks 100% brand new.
I started to redo my one room and figured that I would do something nice such as add wainescoting and some chair rail. it made my life so much easier. This miter saw came in so very handy. For anyone who is still using a miter box and saw - get into the 21st century my friends and pick up a power saw such as the Ryobi.
Overall, a good bang for my buck. I found that the angles were true and the cuts were nice and smooth making my trim project turn out beautifully. I purchased this saw for installing quarter round trim in some difficult places in my bathroom. The only criticism I have is that the clamp for holding the wood you are about to cut isn't all that stable. I am well pleased. It's a bit sloppy so you have to be careful to make sure the wood ends up clamped where you wanted it.
