 LOVED IT! OK, if you are a serious user, then you shouldn't be looking at Black and Decker to begin with. But, if you are like most of us weekend warriors, then this saw fits the bill nicely. There are a lot of nice features like a front and rear handle. You can raise the blade guard during use without putting you fingers as near the blade as the older models, as well as many new ones. I still have all 10 fingers. It is quick and easy to change depth and angles. Once use to the laser guide, you'll always want one. It made a long project this summer much for enjoyable after bucking my older, better saw for 30 years. Under heavier use, I gave it some breathers, as it isn't an upper end saw, but for the money and features, it is hard to beat.  Circular saw I used this Black & Decker circular saw for four days. I used it to cut 2x4 pieces of wood to frame out a wall. On the fourth day when I was almost finished, the head of the bolt that holds the blade in place fell off. At first I thought it had gotten loose and fell off. When I picked it up I realized that it had actually broken off, the other half was still in the saw. Of course the saw was useless at this point. Luckily I only had a few more pieces of wood to cut, by hand. Bottom line is I will not be buying a Black & Decker product again. positive I have used this saw very little as yet. So far I am very pleased. | |||||||||
