Customers are mixed about the adjustability of the saw.

On the 3rd project, the base miter bed adjust bound up and snapped off at the. As a result, it becomes very difficult to change the miter setting and the blade is also very tricky.

"...Shadow for blade spot on but the shadow disappears in bright light conditions." Read more
"...The LED light shines directly down the blade, so when you turn it on it puts a crisp shadow right where the blade is going to cut making precision..." Read more
"The shadow light is not bad. It's easy to see once the blade is low enough...." Read more

The quality for the money is honestly great. It feels nice to use and the shadow line for accurate cuts is pretty spot on. The blade out of the box is alight but I would recommend going for something of a little better quality in that aspect.
Overall, for the price you can not beat this. Sure there are some around the same price but Id bet a leg that this will outwork and outlast all of them.
The skill 10 inch saw fit my needs the best. It had the lighter weight for portability and the ability to cut deep pieces of wood. Setting the saw up was easy. I was a little disappointed it didn't take longer because I didn't have any projects lined up and was hoping to play with the saw more. Once it was set up, the ability to reproduce a beveled cut accurately was a welcome pleasure. I was able to cut a 12 1/2 inch piece of ply for a shelf to hold the saw. The saw is very smooth. I get great cuts. I do like the shadow line, but it does need to be a bit dark to use it, forget about using that feature outside in the day. The dust collection is decent, but I do most of my cutting outside as I don't have a dust collection system in place. The dust catch on the saw seems effective, but I haven't had taken the time to study it. I am more concerned keeping my fingers clear of the blade than where the chips are flying. The dust bag does fill up rather quickly and with decent size chips. I would like to connect my shop vac to the port where the dust bag sits.
Most important thing for me is that this saw gives me nice consistent true cuts for doing molding work.
The box arrived quickly and the saw was well packaged and protected inside. Only a couple minor assembly steps needed to affix the clamp and dust bag. Out of the box accuracy was right on the money in most axes, though I have not yet checked the bevel angles. The manual has very detailed instructions on how to tune this unit in, but I found I did not need to do any.
Only a couple things to note which knocked off one star. 1) as other reviewers have noted, connection to a vacuum took some rigging since the dust bag attachment outlet is 1.5” OD, meaning my 1.5” OD ‘standard’ hose would not fit. (In general I wish industry would standardize these things better and I hate using multiple adapters to get things to connect). Anyway, some jury rigging and gorilla tape got my vacuum hose connected. 2) even with my shop vac running, the dust collection is not that great and this guy can throw a lot of dust around. 3) the shadow line is cool and even marks where the kerf of the blade will cut instead of a center line, BUT it shows the kerf on the right side of the saw blade, not the left. Being right handed, I’m usually feeding and cutting from the left side of the blade and would like to be able to line up the shadow line to my cut line from that side. Maybe just me, but I see this as enough of a flaw as to make the shadow line useless in most applications, 4) the unit has a very short power cord (3’?), meaning I have to use an extension cord just to plug it into the power strip mounted on the side of my workbench.
These issues aside, this is a very nice saw and well worth the money. I’ve already put it to use cutting several hundred mitered blocks for a project I’m working on. If you can get past the issues above like I did, then I highly recommend this product.
Very solid, well put together and cut great right out of the box!
