I really rate this. Easy to use, well made, sturdy, accurate, good instructions in the box. And good value for money. If you are a busy DIYer, and you need a professional circular saw at domestic prices, this brand and this saw would be it.

This is a good saw for DIY use and has been used (so far) for sawing through beams and (in particular) tongue and groove flooring. After getting used to it, it became quite easy to use. The slightly annoying thing is adjusting the saw at the beginning of a cutting line as it is slightly tricky to line up the initial cut. I’d have thought there would be an alignment tool for that but there doesn’t seem to be. But overall very satisfied. A good bit of kit.

I have been cutting a lot of melamine coated furniture panels to make wardrobes and shelving and the guide that comes with this saw doesn’t allow the width I needed so following advice on youtube I made some very simple straight line jigs, from plywood and a batten, and was able to cut the panels I needed very easily with this. With melamine it chips at the top though the bottom piece tends to be neater so (again advice on youtube) I made a tiny shallow cut into the melamine first before lowering the blade to cut right through. Keeping the blade as high as possible while still having enough blade to cut through makes it easier to cut. Initially I found I was burning the wood by having the blade set too low. The very sturdy storage box has plenty of room for keeping spare blades and other bits and bobs.

This was a truly affordable machine, it replaced a fifty year old machine. I did toy with buying a battery powered 18 v Makita, but now that I am retired, and unlikely to use it outside of my property, the prices difference between corded versus battery was a no brainer. And as Makita has been my favourite company from which to purchase a tool, due to quality and reliability of all previous tools bought, I’m delighted with this purchase 😀.
