“Purchase item but never received after waiting a week to arrive rung up spoke to customer service who didn't know why we hasn't received it but was told the saw was sold out till may sale cancelled refund received went straight back on evolution website & it didn't say the saw was sold out, so tried to repurchase it using my original 10% discount code but said my code had already been used even though I had no new saw It seemed to me this was done to avoid honouring the discount code so dedicated not to rebuy the item. I really wwanted to buy this saw was really upset & angry that this it how theywant to treat there new customers.”

“I've had the R255TBL+ for about 2 weeks but I've been using it for the past 4 days - had to get rid of a Triton TS - having made room for it and part built a bench to put it on. Very minor adjustments to the blade etc. Insert plate had a bit of wobble.e at the back, righthand back corner even after adjustments to the screw to level etc. Evolution CS very good and have sent a replacement - due today . The 'sliding' table section seems to bind/catch/become harder to push *at times* - intermittent - when used... other times it's fine!?! So far I've used it to cut up pieces of old offcuts of melamine chipboard pieces for drawers/dividers on the saw table bench - I knew they'd come in handy even though the boss kept on at me to get rid of! . So far it's been a joy to use. I'm now waiting for the 'shark fin' riving knife to be back in stock - as I expect are many after making the table saw offer of a free zero clearance plate... I can't understand why Evolution didn't include the riving knife with the zero plate offer? Especially as the R255TBL + has the extending support frame! Possible only downside is the blade but I've only used it to cut wood type material. I've others from the previous table saw (250mm 30 bore) to use once I get an adaptor.”

“Had a Rage5s and upgraded to the R255TBL+ and am I glad I did. It arrived from Evolution very quickly and was very easy to set up. All of the adjustments needed for perfect cuts were also really easy to do with toolless setup which in some cases and just an Allen key for others. A doddle! The upgrade is fabulous. The rack and pinion fence, the now standard mitre slots allowing for industry standard mitre gauges etc to be used vastly improved dust collection and blade guard are just a few. Brilliant but of kit that should last forever as the build quality is superb. At the price it’s very, very hard to beat”

“Great Little table, out of the box almost perfect I had to do minor adjustments but didn't take long, not much assembly required. I've only used the table a couple of times the multipurpose blade cuts OK but there is some tearout so I will get a fine tooth wood blade soon, my one major gripe is that the riving knife sits quite high up. The shark fin one is out of stock for a while now. He sliding portion of the table is an amazing feature as is the rack and pinion.”

Thank you for your fantastic review, Enam! We're thrilled to hear that you're finding the Evolution R255TBL+ to be a great addition to your toolkit. We appreciate your feedback on the adjustment process and the tearout issue with the multipurpose blade. Upgrading to a fine tooth wood blade is a smart choice, and we're confident it will enhance your cutting experience. Your observations about the riving knife height and the sliding portion of the table are valuable, and we’ll definitely take them into consideration. If you have more tips or projects to share in the future, we’d love to hear them! Happy cutting!
