The R255SMS+ saw was bought as a replacement for a 10 year old other brand that failed. It is much lighter so easier to move around but still sturdy enough to perform very well and acurately. The laser actually works well which is a treat as on many saws I have used it is just a gimmick that doesn't really work. The saw was easy to assemble and cut accurately without further adjstment. I like the slow start on the blade which should put less strain on the motor so hopefully increase its life. All in all an excellent saw. Very pleased with my purchase.

This is my first experience of using a mitre saw, very easy to put together from the box very sturdy piece of kit and very easy to understand the way it works. The angles can be set up very quickly thanks to the clear displays making it quick easy and simple to use. For someone who can't cut a piece of wood straight to save there life this is a wonderful piece of equipment to make anyone's DIY task so much more enjoyable.

Hello I live in Mexico, I bought the Evolution with a local importer that brings it from the United States of America, I am very happy with the saw and the versatility of having a multipurpose machine. However I do not like that this machine version does not include the front clamp, nor does it include the cover that covers the axles. These missing accessories are very important, since they imply greater safety for the user, for this reason my recommendation would be that all the equipment sold anywhere in the world include them. Anyone whose priority is security will be willing to pay the difference in cost. Regards Mr. Juan Carlos Guevara

Very pleased with it, purchased a couple of weeks ago to construct our home office and cut synthetic decking boards. It accuracy once you adjust the laser; is perfect. We've been using it as a portable machine for which its well suited too. Once our office in finished we'll be bolting it into place on a work bench in the space.

I am only an occasional diy'er but borrowed one of the less powerful models in the Evolution range when constructing a closeboard fence for my garden. I therefore decided I had to have this more powerful model ready for any future use. In the short time that I have had it I have only used it for building a woodstore (nothing complex), but I am very impressed with the cut that it gives and the extra power means you will never be wanting. Great piece of kit which I will always look forward to using.
