The saw motor is quite powerful, the blades cut well, the miter adjustments are nice. Saw cuts very close out of the box with no adjustments. The fence is not rigid enough, the front clamps will easily distort the fence with little force. The vertical clamp is not very functional, it’s absolutely useless if cutting short length material. Cannot position the vertical clamp close enough to the blade to be useful when cutting shorter material. I am considering returning this saw as the vertical clamp and fence issues are too big to look past for a nearly $1000 saw.
