Quite happy with the saw so far, however the assembly instrunctions are not brilliant, but it isnt too difficult to work out. The rerason for the 4 stars (and not 5) is two fold, 1). the blade guard makes life very dificult when trying to align a mark on the piece being cut. For accuracy the guard needs to be removed for set up and then replaced for use. 2). the blade gap in the insert piece is too wide, yes it needs to allow for cutting on the bevel, but cutting thin pieces of material is dangerous. There is a good YouTube video of someone making a zero tollerance insert for the saw which is a future project

Fantastic table saw- certainly the best at this price. Bed was as flat as a pancake and minimum setup required for millimetre accurate cuts. The sliding table insert is fantastic. Only one area for improvement- the plastic insert plate is not brilliant. If you’re ripping thin strips, The gape around the blade is so wide that there’s every likelihood that you will have pieces of timber falling into the blade recess which are then very difficult to remove. Not a show stopper as long as you’re careful so other than that, I’m delighted with it.

I've always fancied a saw table and since I had some time on my hands recently(!) I thought now is the time. The Rage table stood out and has proved as good as I hoped. Yes, you can get cheaper and yes you can probably get more "accurate" for a lot more money but this is perfect for my purposes which are occasional use and home projects. With a little setting up (it's not quite right out of the box) the cuts are accurate and easy to do. The ability to cut wood and metal with the same blade is really useful and it handles large sheets thanks to the extending sides. Recommended? Definitely!

I have had this for less than a year, as I have retired and cant use a welder no more I thought I would go back to my second love of woodwork. I just picked the wrong saw table and cannot get a square cut from it. Wood is not cheap in the UK but after 2 x 18mm ply and 2 x 18mm mdf cutting up for projects I cannot get a square cut ............. i'll scrap the table and start drinking I think

The product is just right for the price. It is not the best table saw that I have used but it is good for cutting use. One advantage that I see is the extendable sides for wider materials. If they want to make a next version of this for upgrade. I would suggest to add an extendable roller too at the back so you do not need another separate roller to hold or catch long lumbers on the other side to keep it from falling and bending while it is being cut, if they can step up a notch or improve the blade rpm too, make the blade hole/slot narrower, and improve the dust collection under the saw blade because I got a lot of saw dust on the floor even when I have my power vacuum connected. With that said, I would say it will stand up more with the rest of other table saws in the market and it would make it a complete mobile table saw.

Really like this table saw works really well. Reading the assembly instructions you will need an engineering degree to follow but I did find and assembly aid video which was great and made it easy to follow. Only problem I see and have not figured out is the rip guard needs tighter up it will move after you clamp it down. So be careful if ripping a sheet of plywood. Other than that the table saw works great and is great for a work small work shop. I realy like the fold up and storage feature.
