What Customers Are Saying
This compact and lightweight power tool is well-suited for small to medium-sized projects. It is praised for its portability, ease of use, and ability to cut through various materials with ease.

Would Not RecommendErgonomics are unmatched, feels great in the hand and very lightweight. That said, the motor is so shallow now that when the saw is set down after use, it rolls to the right and tips over constantly.
