Evolution Power Tools R185SMS+ Sliding Miter Saw with Multi-Material Cutting, 45 Degree Bevel, 50 Degree Miter, 210 mm Slide, Blade Included Cuts Wood Plastic Metal & More, 7-1/4"

This saw is amazing. Super smooth ball bearing slides, smooth starting motor, lots of power to cut through steel, which is the reason I bought it. It's also super lightweight so it's easy to move around. I couldn't be happier with my purchase and wish I bought it sooner!I did have to call Evolution because I wanted to buy a clamp that hooks on the front of the saw and clamps material back against the vertical fence. They exist, but I couldn't find them on their website. One call, 2 minutes on hold and I got a super nice rep who helped me place my order and the parts were in the mail immediately. Can't say enough great things about this company and this saw. Worth every penny.

you gave to build it. It feels cheap but seems to work good actually. Time will tell

Build quality is for gentle work, finish work. Not framing. This is not a framing saw. No ground plug and small cord gauge. Miter is true, minimal blade wandering. Laser is on target. Motion is fairly smooth but not as nice as a high end saw. For the handyman home builder, this is a good finish saw. Will you break it? if you are a rough carpenter yes. For what it was designed for, it is a good value and useful. Pulls about 760 watts. Ample cord size for draw.

So far my husband likes the saw. It has a clean cut and very easy to use. It is light weight and easy to move around. The only thing is that I didn't receive the dust bag and they are not able to replace missing parts. I can return it but I'm not going through the hassle just for a dust bag.

We were limited for space for my hubbys wood working projects. This is perfect .

Has done great with every project! Great value for the money. Easy to use and the blade is very on point with the cut! Bolted to a rolling cart and able to move it where I need it.

This saw comes disassembled in 3 major parts for more compact packaging. They are the base, power head, and slider tubes. The connection between the power head and slider tubes is extremely questionable.Inside the hollow slider tubes are plastic cartridges with spring loaded metal pins. These pins are supposed to go through holes in the sliders and into holes in the power head locking them together. There's an actuator tip on the cartridge that has to be in the out position to contact the inside of the power head receiver and deploy the pins. This all has to be in precise alignment to work. On mine one of the holes in the slider tubes appears to not be offset from the end correctly and the pin couldn't deploy. After much messing around, I ended up pulling the cartridges out and forcing them to deploy just before reaching the holes. Shoving the power head on with the pins pre-deployed allowed them to lock into the holes.There are a few sentences in the manual addressing the fact that these pins need to be locked in place. I don't think the manual places enough emphasis on how important these pins are. If the power head came off while the saw was in use it would be potentially catastrophic. It seems like there should be a more positive and verifiable way to lock the head and sliders together.Outside of that the saw is adequate for the price I guess. It works and it's obvious a lot of thought went into it, possibly too much in the case of the over engineered spring pin cartridges. There's a lot of flex in the head. The fence and bed parts don't seem to align as precisely as one might hope. You get what you pay for as usual.

I was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to assemble this saw from the moment I opened the box. The instructions were ergonomically designed, making it a breeze to follow along and identify all the parts. This was hands down the simplest assembly process I've ever encountered for a complex tool. Kudos to the engineer and ergonomic design team for a job well done! Once assembled, the robust quality and durability of the saw became apparent. It's clear that this product was well-thought-out and built to last. I am highly impressed with the excellent value for the price. Highly recommend this to anyone in need of a reliable tool!

Primero que nada. Si, si se recomienda.Segundo, como toda herramienta te va a dar la precisión en la misma medida en la que estés dispuesto a invertirle para ponerla a punto, yo le dedique 1 hra y se pudo ajustar a la perfección.La herramienta viene desensamblada pero nada que ver con una reseña haciendo referencia a que era insegura, seguramente esa persona no maneja herramientas.El eje es doble, por lo que puedes usar las hojas europeas de 20mm o las más comunes en América de 5/8 in sólo es darle vuelta al adaptador en el eje y listo.Por potencia no para y aparte el motor es de 10A por lo que no consume energía en demasía.La hoja que trae... pues funciona pero si esperaba más de ella, la guardaré para materiales que no sean madera.Es muy compacta (realmente muy compacta) y pesa muy poco por lo que se puede llevar a todos lados sin problema y debido a su gran capacidad de corte y alto torque puede sustituir a varias herramientas.Lo máximo que he cortado sin cambiar de más los ajustes son 9 pulgadas sacrificando 1 o 2 cm de altura, lo que no me preocupa.El láser, pues igual si se ajusta bien funciona bien pero si estas acostumbrado a sombra la vas a extrañar.He cortado madera de pino, mezquite, limón, palo fierro, aluminio 6061 t6, acero 1018, PTR, y plástico y en ninguno de ellos se escucho o se sintió que la hoja se frenara fuera de lo normal.La recomiendo, la relación precio beneficio esta fuera de balance, obtienes mucho más por lo que pagas ($4,200 mxn)

Pretty impressive little machine. Blade is very durable.

Máquina sem comentários. Linda, Forte e muito bem acabada. Mais uma conquista que só foi possível graças a Amazon. Empresa séria e comprometida com seus clientes.

perfect for its price.
