Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

This is one solid saw, espcially since it's a jobsite saw. All the components are integratedvery well and very portable. All-in-all, this is a very worthwhile upgrade.

The fence slides reasonably well along the rail, * tight, and holds solid. There is a support bar that you can attach to the fence that would give you a bit of support.

Wide ripping capacity - has a collapsible extension that increases the ripping capacity. Collapsible extension support at the back - helps immensely when ripping large boards.

Use it as a coaster or frisbee. Just unlock, slide to the desired position, and lock.



Cons

The blade hits the table at the rear and has almost a 1/4 gap from hitting the table in the front. The blade is nowhere near parallel to the fence due to the motor shaft not at the correct angle. The manual recommends the fence should be aligned to wi...  Read More

The saw is light very duty, fine for building picnic tables and chicken coops, but not for fine furniture. I own a * 4010, and this seems cheaply made. Rockwell your product is high priced junk.

In comparison to a craftsman tablesaw that i have owned and used frequently since 1973, this saw is terrible. It bows on angled cuts. Anything else is considered improper use of tool. I doubt that my rockwell saw will last me 4.

Had to replace it. Had to dissemble it and send it back. The owners manual is of no help. In the process of trying to get a refund.

Quality


The material extension on the back and the fold out support on the side are very welcome and useful


Great saw cuts great for any home use i used it for hard wood and it’s a chap


The handles were ripped out and falling apart


The laser is essentially useless doesnt show on the wood should have been left off

Price


Is it the best saw at this price


The price is not too bad though


At this price point its no surprise it has assembly defects

Shipping


Fast delivery for a large heavy product

Ups picked it up the next day the day after the new one was delivered and what a difference

Packaging/appearance


Amazon had me a new saw the next day i was amazed nice workthe new saw was perfect right out of the box some fine tuning and i...  Read More


Had to buy a new blade right away though because the one they sent me was bent from how they packed it which did not make me very happy


It had most of the packing material but the bubble wrap between the saw and the table was not packed in tight


It came and the box was pretty damaged

Competitiveness


Every bit as good as the craftsman 9inch saw i bought many years ago when craftsman products were somewhat better than today


Id put it up against dewalt any day


I could go on but point is ive set up and run six different production runs


The dust collection bag is better than a box on the floor under the machine but not much more

    I didnt notice or focus on this until i started trying some finer cuts in hardwood which show circular tooth marks but by then the warranty was expired and customer svc said there is no fix for this not even replacing the entire motor assembly
