Pros & Cons
Pros
Comes with two blades, both blades are same 42 tpi (teeth per inch) the blades are sharp, the handles are good. The box it came in so the blades are all safely in their own place. The blade is made for small stuff and has a top edge for support.
Cons
Top insert falls out of the lid when you open the box. Magnetic strip is too weak and sits in too deep a recess. When you try to stick the blades to it there's a gap between the blades and the magnet.
You have to really torque down the chuck vise on the handle to sufficiently hold the blade. The shaft of the blade that fits in the chuck had to be squeezed down. The blade isn't secure and spins around no matter how much i tighten it.
Sundel doniger is no doubt ashamed. Just as well. Very disappointed. Very dissatisfied. This is not. Shame on them.
This is easily the worst product i have bought on amazon. I have since bough 3 other similar saws all of which work well.
Spend the money on a better constructed saw like the irwin one or the shark one. It works okay for cutting foam or balsa, but if you anticipate a lot of use i'd go for something better. Just going to use a coping saw with a tiny *.

I think the issue that some people are having is because they are not orienting the blades correctly
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
This could also be the reason they are experiencing a n unstable blade
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
If you turn it 90 degrees it doesn’t want to go in plus this puts the clamping force on the sides of the blade instead of on the top and bottom which could lead to the blade slipping up and down
