good utility tool to have around the shop, cuts most anything you put through it, have had a similar import saw for 30+ years and still works.

over all the band saw is pretty good…I had to modify the holding clamp a bit but other than that, I am happy with the purchase.

Was a little out of square but adjusted right in! Very happy Only thing was some small damage in shipping, however I was compensated for it.

We did not want to spend a lot for what we needed this saw for. This was reasonably priced and is easy to use.

Metal Cutting Band Saw is sturdy, well made and works great. With proper use it should provide years of use.

Very happy with the saw. The manual is really bad but I found a good video in which the owner talks through all the adjustment points so that was massively helpful. Clamping jaw is poor. Seems to lift my workpiece up. All in all great saw for the home hobbyist.

This was the second one I ordered. 1stwas completely awful. This one works but has more vibration in it than I’d like. But the price was ok for the quality so, it will do what I need.

Assembly is relatively. The saw head is a beast so you really should have 2 people to mount it on the base. Makes nice cuts.
