All around fantastic

Would Recommend

I bought this over 6 months ago and it’s been great. Most affordable one out there with so many features. Good size throat. Cuts through galvanized 2.5” steel pipe no problem.

I’ve had this for a year, and the blades that came with it have worn out now and I can’t find any blades that are compatible to it.

Had a bit of steel work to do. I ordered this band saw and it took hours off the job. Great purchase.

Not too big, not too small!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This saw fits the bill for most all tasks. The 3 1/4” cut is the perfect size, in between the small subcompact competitors & the rare need for a full size band saw. No regrets!
