“I'm not a professional but I could quickly learn by myself how to use my 355 CPS IN GOOD SAFETY CONDITIONS. To me it is an important point. A few comments however : - due to a lack of light or laser beam on the piece to be cut, it needs to very carefully notice where the blade will cut, by making a first contact between them (without operating !). Then you can validate the adjustment and thighten the piece. So : a laser would have been appreciated - lots of noise when the blade turns. The engine could could have been better soundproofed... - not set available with both the aluminium blade AND another blade (multipurpose or steel or wood, for example) - and finally : it is a bit difficult to avoid metal dust toward the operator. Not so much, yes, and it is a god point, but few”

“Been looking for a dust bag for my saw in the usual places; Screwfix, tool station, etc; but you have to buy a “kit”! I only wanted the dust bag and found it, along with the vacuum fitting from Evolution themselves! And whilst not perfect it does catch about 80-90% of the sawdust. I’m happy”

“It's a good circular saw and I'm looking forward to testing it on as many materials as possible.”

“Placed an order online which, despite saying in stock, was actually out of stock. A quick phone call in response to their email and the refund was processed. Ordered a different item which promptly arrived the next day, excellent customer service all round.”

“Bought the Rage 5S table saw. I have other Evolution saws and have had no problems what's so ever. Would have giver 5*s if the on off switch had an emergency off switch which I purchased from an Etsy supplier, and it had more storage facilities for the accessories. Very well pleased with the saws performance and the fantastic after sals team.”

“Les + - table très plane - machine très bien réglée d'usine (juste la plaque qui enserre la lame un tout petit peu trop haute) - très belle coupe - système montée descente de la lame très agréable à utiliser - excellent guide parallèle - réglage de l'écart guide parallèle - lame très précis et agréable - démarrage progressif et sécurisant - tablette coulissante sur la partie gauche du plateau très pratique - la petite rallonge de sortie de table est une bonne idée Les - - Aspiration par dessus le couteau diviseur très peu efficace (dire que c'était une de mes motivations d'achat !), il n'y a pas beaucoup de différence avec ou sans cette aspiration - arrêt de la lame beaucoup trop long malgré le frein électronique qui ne freine rien du tout (autre motivation déçue...) - étau de serrage sur le petit guide perpendiculaire totalement inutilisable. Soit on ne serre pas et la pièce à scier ne tient pas, soit on serre et l'étau se soulève en tordant son support vers le haut (et la pièce ne tient toujours pas). Celui qui a conçu cette merveille n'a pas dû la tester, c'est lamentable==>poubelle - couteau diviseur beaucoup trop fin (en plus d'être trop haut). Si on y branche le tuyau d'aspiration dessus en le faisant tomber sur le côté le poids du tuyau fait que le couteau se tord latéralement et donc ne se retrouve plus dans l'alignement de la lame. La pièce de bois se bloque donc dès qu'elle arrive au niveau du couteau. Bien sûr on peut brancher le tuyau de telle sorte que la courbe qu'il fait soit dans le même plan que la lame mais du coup si on scie une pièce un peu longue, elle finit par buter sur le tuyau. A se demander si tous les tests ont été faits avant la mise sur le marché..... Je peux vous faire cadeau d'une solution ! créer une pièce qui se fixe en s'emboîtant dans le côté de la rallonge de sortie, avec sur cette pièce 2 demi colliers, l'un au-dessus de l'autre, dans lesquels on encastrera le tuyau. Moi j'ai mis une ficelle et c'est moche mais le principe est bon En conclusion c'est quand même une excellente machine que je ne regrette pas d'avoir achetée, dommage que ses immenses qualités soient gâchées par des défauts résultant d'erreurs de conception aussi navrantes.”

“Fantastic value and when it switches on automatically when you start your sander it makes you feel like a proper woodworker. The electric cable is stupidly inflexible and the suction tube could be longer and higher quality. But at this price it is obvious they’ve cut a couple of corners.”

“Would have given 5 stars if the sliding crosscut table was not so sloppy and had less sideways movement. I see no way of adjusting this, then add the poor fitting of the bevel gauge in the mitre slot on the sloppy table and you have lots of unnecessary inaccuracies. Apart from the above gripe, the saw was very accurately set up from the factory and has seen lots of use mainly on construction 4x2 soft wood and sheet plywood and has proved its worth. I like the way it folds up and stows away after use as I am not blessed with lots of workshop space.”

“Table saw came with several of the tubes that make up frame squashed so difficult to assemble Otherwise looks good just haven’t fully tested yet”

“The Evolution R255TBL+tablesaw is excellent in all respects, ease of use and accuracy especially. However I find the very high riving knife position irritating. I lost count of the number of times this had to be removed and re-attached during my last project. I worry that I will forget to put it back one time and have a nasty accident.”

Kevin, we will be making an accessory low-profile riving knife that sits just below blade height for those times when you don't want to make a thru-cut. The current riving knife set-up offers a balance between depth of cut, eliminating pinching on long cuts and dust extraction for different size workpieces. But we hear you, and a shark-fin style riving knife is on the accessory list, 2-3 months.

“Love the cutting speed. Works amazing on most metals. However did not warn or say not to cut stainless steel. And that alone cost me a blade. Which the blade is almost half the cost of the saw.”

“If I did it again I’d buy the one with the steel base instead of the aluminum one. The base shattered when I caught a piece of metal in the blade and it also damaged the teeth on the blade. Still usable but annoying. Also the detents should either be more accurate or adjustable. Again if I had a steel base I could have more easily remedied this.”

“Saw cuts better than expected and leaves abreally nice finished usable edge with no grinding required. Only issue I had is when I unboxed the saw the overmolded rubber grip on the front handle was falling off. Not a deal breaker but expected a little better quality out of evolution.”

“Upgraded from previous table saw. Very pleased with the result. Would have given 5star being value for money but only 4 as issues with setting up. ie washer on saw blade wrong way round causing riv knife problem and using scale could be explained better. But otherwise very satisfied.”

“Setup instructions not clear but a great tool. The QR code on the instructions was for a different model. When I set up the tool I initially put the rails on upside down and it was a real pain to alter them. Other than that the tool seems robust and the laser is a real boon. I bought it for the depth stop which I will need to practice more (my ineptitude, not the machine) Overall I am very pleased. The terrible and inaccurate instructions are the reason for only 4 stars.”
