I bought this tool a while ago, and have been very happy with it. It has stood up to whatever challenge I have asked it to do without so much a balking at the job.

In the past I have put it to the task of making pretty precise cuts for an entertainment center I designed, making cuts for garage cabinets that I built after looking over another similar cabinet that was pre-fabricated at my local hardware store, and other personal jobs. I have also had other folks use it, with no complaints.

The main reason I got this was because of its price (it was inexpensive compared to other models), and it's weight, but quickly learned to appreciate it for its features, which include ease of use. Just get the appropriate blade for your job, plug it in, and start cutting. It is also pretty sturdy. As I said, I got this a while ago...and after using it for a number of years it's still going strong.

The motor that it comes with it is more than ample, just use it for what it is intended, and it will do what it's asked and last a long time. Like any tool, you can mistreat it, and it may fail you, but over-all, this has been a very good purchase on my part. I don't think anyone purchasing it will be disappointed...and I have not seen a need for a different model.
