Used it for about 6hours continuously. It does get hot, as expected. Still cuts great. Time will tell. The only downside is that the delivery time was way off, I put the order in on Thursday but got the product arrive on Wednesday. It was a bank holiday weekend but would of expected it to arrive sooner as on the display it gives you the ETA time. I had to try and move the destination due to the schedule times were constantly moving without notice even when I registered with UPS their updates were no good.

Needed a about a 9 inch long cut (4 inch deep) to trim into a sidewalk against the house and the R230 was the correct buy. Needed a left side cut saw and this was suited for a 45 degree jut out from the house as the job required a fit just right to cut a nd trim my pinched sidewalk against the house. Not too expensive as I needed to do only a few jobs around the house and not pay almost a thousand dollars to complete simple work with an expensive gasoline concrete saw then store it in a corner. So far cut sidewalk with it, Trimmed some concrete partition block. and concrete pieces for a retaining wall around my A/C unit. Pros: Like the slow rev up to full blade speed, Lets you know you the power is generating and allowing you to get ready for action. Weight is good, but hey, there are heavier concrete saws out there. Trigger mechanism seems sturdy and dedicated, and no mistakes in operation or startling sudden startup like a grinder could. Cord length is generous. Blade that came with it is very capable. Cost is great factor in determining what you need for those small once and awhile jobs. Cons: No water spout, but this is the smallest saw so probably not necessary for short runs. Instructions adding the cut blade are a bit hazy. Handle bar is a bit on the big side.....not sure you need all this handle bar, but kickback probably is a consideration for safety. Some have said these concrete saws trip out your breaker in your power box, no issue when I was using it. Probably will order the largest model as this product was great experience.
