I purchased this saw from home depot about 2 years ago. I cannot understand why Home Depot would sell a bandsaw and not carry replacement blades for it. I wished I spent the extra money and got a 14″ instead. The overall quality is fine but seems under powered. This is my first bandsaw so I really don’t have much of a comparison.

Even though I had to return it after assembling it because of a warped top wheel that caused vibration.The saw is made very good (excellent) and would love to get the same model some day.

The overall saw is five star. Easy to assemble and works excellent. The reason for the four star is the fence. It had to be modified to work and is hard to adjust. And of course the blade had to be replaced.
