This sliding mitre saw comes in a lot of pieces. Fortunately, it also comes with an excellent instruction manual. As a result, it’s really easy to put together as long as you take your time. In the unlikely event that you do get stuck, there are plenty of video walkthroughs on YouTube.
Once you get this sliding mitre saw assembled, it’s really lovely to use. The only potential issue is the low-RPM motor. The main disadvantage of the low RPM motor is, of course, that you lose a bit of power. You also lose the ability to choose between soft-start and hard-start.
On the plus side, the lower RPM means less time to spin up and down. This makes the loss of soft-start and hard-start less of an issue. It also means that the saw is noticeably quieter in operation.
Even with the lower RPM, this motor is still of a very decent standard. For example, this mitre saw happily glides through laminate flooring. It’s hard to see it having a problem with anything the average serious DIYer is going to want to do.
