I bought this because the owner of a multimillion dollar construction company uses it. Now I have the very same one. It's the bomb diggity.
This might be a good saw, but it is made in China. Amazon says it is made in USA. I will find one made here by a USA company.
The parts didn't line up properly. I ordered this saw to replace a 25 year old Milwaukee circular saw that has seen better days. The foot or base of the saw is thin and looks to be easily damaged. After examining the new saw I decided to send it back and continue with the old saw. The new saws depth of cut adjustment system was out of alignment. The saw has been well reviewed and I was hoping for better quality but I was very disappointed. I was worried that the first time I dropped it it would be damaged.
This is a solid built tool. The stock blade is crap so be sure to replace it, but I love everything about this saw. It has lots of power it produces accurate and precise cuts, it feels good to hold and overall performs impressively. For the price, you just can't beat it.
Unfortunately, the price dropped a day later after I bought it; e-mailed and called Amazon. I used it to build a cedar fence. Well, the saw is very good. Was told they will not refund the difference because a new policy in place on Sept 1, 2008. It is very steady and powerful. It is fun to use. It means to me people have to worry whether price would drop after buyingg anything from Amazon, and likely would delay buying decisions. Please e-mail or call Amazon to complain about this policy.
