Nice piece of kit, good value for money with the two blades, covered all the cutting I do, real easy to put together and easy to use and powerful. The only downside side was the length of time it took to received it from yourselves, ordered on 29th December and delivered 13th January, okay given that we had some snowfall and travel was a bit of a problem. Seemed to take a long time consideration given that it says overnight. Last issue was that the box was open and we have now checked all parts were there. The evolution multi blade had some rust marks and the dust bag showed sign of mould in the stitching. Otherwise very happy

Hi Andy, Thank you for your feedback and for choosing Evolution. We’re glad you’re happy with the saw and blades, but we’re sorry to hear about the delivery delay and the condition of the box, rust marks, and mould on the dust bag. Please could you email us with your order number and a couple of photos of the rust and the packaging? We’ll arrange replacements for the blade and dust bag and review the packaging issue with our courier team to prevent this happening again. If there’s anything else you need or further questions, we’re here to help. Kind regards, Team Evolution Power Tools

Well packed , reasonably easy assembly, just two nuts left in the box?? I found fixing the normal wood cutting blade required much more force on the hex key than could be applied by hand. ( a similar attachment on an angle grinder seems so much more positive ) On my first try I was still able to turn the blade by hand with the axis locked?? I rechecked, made sure the washer was correct face out and tightened again using a pipe to extend the hex key. All now satisfactory. The laser guide seems quite inadequate. All my cuts are made after trial lowering the blade onto the work piece. The light is flickering but I am unable to trace it where it matters. I have not ventured into work that requires bevels, so cannot comment further. Disappointed to see the same saw much cheaper on Screwfix
