Overall, the saw works very well with just a few issues. Hold down clamp is the biggest issue. As I generally cut metal most often, a sturdy clamp is essential. This clamp is simply not up to task. It's too small and too weak for the job. It's too short to offer any help for smaller pieces (maybe by design?) and though quick adjust is a great idea the strength isn't up to par. The threaded bar already shows signs of slipping/stripping after limited use. As a result I've made a stronger and longer hold down clamp. Overall, very happy with purchase but hold down clamp is an important component that needs to be improved.

First time I’ve bought a mitre saw and what an excellent choice I picked. Very versatile and easy to use. Bought this through Screwfix because you got the stand for half price.

The mitre saw seemed of good quality when set up. But used on 40mm beach wood started but I g the wood and splintering on the 2nd cut after the 5th cut the blade buckled is ment to be a an all-rounder blade with wood being the softest of the materials it can cut did not expect this to happen. Will order a wood only blade as the blades no good after 5 cuts so dissapointed is a understatement.
