After much research I went for the R185SMS mainly as it is a very manageable size. This is my first mitre saw and it has helped with a couple of DIY projects already. I checked the setup out of the box and the blade was pretty accurate. The laser needed adjustment and instructions on how to do this were clear. However I now seem to have a 'phantom' laser line as well as the main one so maybe more adjustment needed? My only complaints so far (after two weeks) are that 1) the dust collection bag is not very effective, and even with attaching a vacuum cleaner to the dust port there is still a large amount of dust generated. 2) The multi-purpose blade has quite a wide cut and is a little coarse for woodwork so may need to get a finer blade. All in all so far so good.

The mitre saw has been extremely well used over the last few months. It works very efficiently with the laser guide being particularly helpful to ensure cutting at exactly the right point. The downside is that there is always the need to sandpaper the cut surface. I then bought a specific wood cutting blade which others commented removed this problem but it did not in my case. I purchased this specific mitre saw following a neighbour's recommendation and its light weight to easily carry to the working area.
