    I bought one a few days ago it was 299 at Lowes. I was going to buy the bigger saw but I figured I really don't have the room for it right now and I have no projects right now that make it for me to legitimately need the bigger one. I've needed a table saw for like 3 years now. I only buy tools when they are on sale.... I bought a miter saw first and it was great for doing trim and using as a chop saw but I really should have just got the table saw. Miter was a luxury and a table saw is the tool you need if you can only have one.

I've yet to see a review of this saw that points out any significant problems with it - that doesn't happen too often. (at least, as long as we ignore the $-£ pricing question - what is it - about 300 bucks in the States, £450 in the UK? :-(((

    Yeah, just saw this here on Finland and thought that "damn, that's a steep price for such small tool". Then decided to check out few reviews to see that if it's even good and wow.. It's about half the price in US. I would buy it immediately there, but I don't know if I can justify it's price here. Seems way too expensive for what it is.

The dealer sent a new one same day though and that one is flat. As everyone says, the mitre fence is rubbish, but after duck tape on the bottom and lots of aluminium tape on the sides it's now solid in the groove. Apart from the above it seems great :)

    What? Having smaller blade and having lower sound levels doesn't make any sense. Think about it for a single second. Larger diameter means lower rpm to achieve same blade speed at the perimeter. I've been at lumber yard couple times and those saws are much quieter running without load than any normal household type saw 😀

    I bought this saw upgrading from a 20 year old machine and it is no more noisier than my previous one but one thing I did notice. The smaller blade is thinner and cuts nicer with less play than the bigger blade I had. I bought a 60Tooth blade for finer cuts but have yet to use it because the standard blade cuts so well with minimal rip. All in all I’m very impressed with this saw and since I alway use ear protection the 64.5dBA is not a factor.

    Your description of the low fence in incorrect and looks like you almost damaged the fence in the video. The low fence is not for better access to small stock. It is actually a support for ripping wide stock beyond the edge of the table. You should not force it down while still over the table, it lays down level with the table once you extend beyond the edge and keeps stock from slipping below the rip fence.
