“On first impressions, it’s a well build machine, easy to put together than I thought it was going to be, and that’s with a, not so clear to read instructions, just pictures to follow, but after carefully looking at each photo twice, you can eventually put it together, doe need to be centralized, as not at 90* when you take it out of the box, the stand is sturdy even on the garden, easy to attach the saw to the legs, and away you go, cuts are precise, and clean. So far its working ok, will see how it goes over the next few weeks, so after using the saw for the first rtime, i was quite impressed, apart from the odd point where it got stuck on the peace of wood, it worked very well, dust bag is a little on the small side, and fills up very quickly, thaty aside, it cut very precise, the wood clamp could have done with having a longer stem on it, as heard to clamp larg bits of wood down, as stem is not long for it to come up high enough to do the large pecise, i do nee to set blade up again a bit more not quite got it 90 degrees, but thats more me than the machine, the stand could have benefitted from a longer extention arm, with an extra drop down leg for support of longer planks of wood, but over all for the DIY,ER its perfect to do all that you need and more .”

“It’s perfectly adequate for what it was bought for ( making raised beds ) - a little more assistance & guidance to set it up would have been appreciated; the QR code supplied didn’t work & I reverted to You Tube videos which other people had posted ( comments on these indicated I wasn’t the only person stuck ! ). Overall, now it’s working, it appears to be a good piece of kit at the budget end of the market.”

“The slide saw is superb does exactly what it says on the tin. The stand is a really useful tool with one caveat no adjustment on the legs. Stop production of this model and just continue with the that does have adjustment. 5 stars for the saw. 4 stars for the stand.”

“Ordered one day and delivered the next day. Assembly instructions clear and precise and the saw works very well with good accuracy from the laser line. Used it a few times and it seems very good.”
