Five Star Reviews: | 69% Good saw July 9, 2017 Got this for my dad for his Christmas gift. I thought it was going to be cheap because of the name brand but it's really well built. Great saw! I used this for building patio furniture ... May 29, 2017 Great saw! I used this for building patio furniture and it had no problems with cutting 2x4's all day long. Only negative thing I have to say like a lot of other is that the laser is about 1/8'th of an inch off Excellent for the price August 15, 2015 I built my chicken coop with it! Excellent for the price. My only regret is that I should have bought it sooner! Make sure you take the size of the blade into consideration when making your cuts. Also do some practice cutting to judge where the laser lines up and where the actual cut will be. Fantastic saw for a great price June 27, 2015 AWESOME! Cuts very precisely (I just framed a small house and this thing has been great and doesn't show any signs of slowing down). The set-up is really simple (maybe 2 minutes to reassemble the pieces) and it's super lightweight, making it easy to move/pack away at the end of each day. The laser on it is very precise and helps a lot with cutting exactly where you want to. | 67% great saw, could be a bit more powerful but ... September 29, 2016 great saw, could be a bit more powerful but for the price I cant complain. I put a wood blade on it occasionally (make sure to clean afterwards or enjoy a smokey suprise) and it works great with that as well. Black N Decker Chop Saw Terrific! March 19, 2016 This cop saw is a lot more powerful than my old Harbor Freight Tools one, and is easy to use. On thing if I could change on it is a lock on the handle, so the button to keep the saw going could be engaged. But, for the price, and power, compromise on this is alright. The blade that came with it cuts through most things great, so there is very little to complain about it. The good- Plenty of power Blade guard works Clamps securely Quick adjustment clamp The not so good No quick adjust angle mechani March 10, 2016 I have used cold cut, bandsaw and multiple different chop saws.For the price you can not go wrong.The good-Plenty of powerBlade guard worksClamps securelyQuick adjustment clampThe not so goodNo quick adjust angle mechanism This Chop Saw is great for the price January 16, 2016 This Chop Saw is great for the price. I cut a large amount of high-carbon spring steel and the saw never seemed to have trouble. From experience with past chop saws, I do stop every few minutes to let it cool off. The 14-inch cutoff wheel that comes with it is pretty good quality too. Great saw! January 6, 2016 Great little saw. I was pleasantly surprised when I unpacked this saw, and even happier when I first used it. very nice, an orangeversion of the yellow one at half the price. mediocre blade, but they all come with lousy blades no matter what you buy. Cut a bunch of 1 1/2 inch 1/8 wall square tubing without any trouble.Looking forward o using it some more. For the money it's a steal. |
Four Star Reviews: | 22% Bang for your $$ August 16, 2017 Does what it was intended to do...good value for the cash but like some buyers have pointed out the laser is pretty much useless. You don't really need it to be honest. I use it to cut 2X4 for framing. Good basic miter saw February 27, 2017 For the price, this is a good value. I have only used it a few times, but it does pretty much what I needed. Good cutting, but the dust collector bag is not that effective, capturing only about 50% of the waste. Working on a built in bookshelf as my first DIY project and this saw has worked great for my straight and miter'd cuts April 1, 2016 Couldn't give 5 stars since I've only had the saw for 2 weeks. Working on a built in bookshelf as my first DIY project and this saw has worked great for my straight and miter'd cuts. Setup was extremely easy and everything seems high quality. I had to revert to the old 'piece of wood' jammed against the teeth to secure the blade so I could loosen the bolt and change to October 7, 2015 The only problem was the bolt holding the blade was so tight from the factory the shaft lock wouldn't hold. I had to revert to the old 'piece of wood' jammed against the teeth to secure the blade so I could loosen the bolt and change to a finer blade. That is the only reason for a downgrade to four starts. Otherwise it would be five. I love it! | 29% Good saw June 7, 2016 I've used this saw on several projects and it does a pretty good job cutting tube. I wanted to see how much it could handle so I put it up against some 1/4" plate and that proved to be past its limit. Other than that, I've been pleased with the saw. it has a miter gauge to cut angle very good for the money February 21, 2016 Does what I bought it ,to cut metal ,it has a miter gauge to cut angle very good for the money. Four Stars February 17, 2016 saw worked very well but it had one of the rubber feet missing from the saw base. Grat for a home shop! January 27, 2016 Great for a homeowner shop. already made a few cuts in 2" angle iron with a 1/8" thickness and some 1/4" wall 2" square tube. Get some extra cutting wheels if making several cuts in thicker metal. This was a great upgrade from cutting in a vise with a reciprocating saw. The saw works just fine, it would be better with a T handle ... October 19, 2015 The saw works just fine, it would be better with a T handle grip and a quick release to adjust the material angle, but for being the cheapest name brand chop saw I could fine it performs adequately. It did come with a blade. Black & Decker are finally making quality products again. August 12, 2015 Don't over look B&D anymore! I probably wouldn't have bought this if it hadn't been for having good luck with another B&D product recently. I am not a professional and only do metalworking as a hobby, but I do use this almost everyday and haven't had any problems with it. The only negative is that the clamp is only adjustable in one direction and and each time you move it you need to un-tighten the bolt, adjust it, then re-tighten the bolt. It can get a little annoying when you have a lot of stock to cut at different angles. It would've been nice if it had something like a spring loaded quick adjustment nob or something, but overall I am very happy with this saw.P.S. The cut off blade it comes with is a little cheap and will slightly bend if you cut to fast, causing an uneven cut. I replaced it with a stiffer DeWalt blade and it works better now. |
Three Star Reviews: | 3% The clamp is pretty useless too May 10, 2017 Cheap. Get what you pay for in this case. Blade isn't sharp AT ALL... Definitely change the blade if you're using it for finish work. Cheap laser guide too. Off 1/8" and can't get it right on. Also, the dust catch is beyond worthless. The clamp is pretty useless too. Other than that, it's outstanding... Three Stars September 16, 2016 Good for simple cutting jobs. This is not a product if you need perfect edges.. Perfect weekend warrior saw. September 24, 2015 Perfect for a weekend warrior but not the Delta of years ago. As a Union carpenter I'm used to the best tools. The fence was too small for crown. Auto stops were almost impossible to hit. They just didn't lock in for the standard miter angles. The saw dust catch might as well have not been there at all. I thought the bag was still unzipped but it was. Good for a homeowner but a craftsman will be disappointed. Made with cheap material June 13, 2015 I really wanted to love this saw...but it's hard to do when right out of the box the control arm snaps off from barely tightening the stop. It wasn't over-torqued as the table could still be turned by hand. Other than that, and the laser being off by just over 1/8" and I can't seem to get it to adjust properly, I have no complaints. The blade makes straight, clean cuts and the operation is very smooth. I guess you get what you pay for. Hopefully I can find an aluminum aftermarket part...if so, I'll be happy once again and will give it another star. Good saw for the money May 22, 2015 Its a good little saw,my laser never worked from day one but not worth the return hassle. | 2% Piece missing December 7, 2015 Just got it in and noticed one of the rubber feet for the base was missing. It's not worth sending the whole thing back, but would be nice to have a stable base that I won't have to put a shim under. |
Two Star Reviews: | 1% Thanks Amazon for your great return policy August 16, 2015 After only 3 times of tightening the adjustment handle, the control arm broke. It is made of plastic and is far too flimsy for repeated loosening and tightening. Thanks Amazon for your great return policy. However, I would advise against buying this saw. Good homeowner saw but far from perfect August 6, 2015 I bought this to replace a 25 year old saw that begged for retirement. I originally was thinking about buying a slider but since I have a large table saw I probably would not use the slider feature very often. Also, the sliding saws are heavier and more difficult to carry. I checked out a few other saws but here is what I like about the Homecraft: Light weight (25 lbs.) but still feels solid and well made cuts well/powerful easy to align and use The laser was accurate out of the box although other alignments were required before use.Dislikes: Really cheap burlap dust bag. I cut a bunch of mahogany and about 90% of the dust ended up on the floor. My vacuum hose almost fits over the outlet but won't stay attached. The denoted stops are more like speed bumps - you feel them but its not easy to stop on them The clamp provided has very fine threads and takes forever to adjust It comes with a 24 tooth carbide tip blade. Although it cuts well you may want to invest in a 60 tooth for fine cuts.Update on 4/6/16 from 4 stars to 2:After using it for a few projects I have significant complaints:The dust collection bag doesn't seem to collect any of the dust. Throw it out and use a vacuum attachment or cut outside The stops (22.5, 31.6, 45) don't work well. It doesn't stay on the stop when you tighten it down; sometimes moving as much of a degree when tightened down The fence is very low, 1.25" in middle and 1.75" on either end which makes cuts of 1x3 or 1x4 on edge very difficult. The laser on my saw now only works intermittently and has to be turned on manually.If I had a do over I would go with the Hitachi | 2% Not All That Great ! July 6, 2015 Tried to cut a 2" square piece of steel at a 45 degree angle. Took over an hour to finally cut all the way through. Not enough horse power to cut quickly. Applying a little more pressure doesn't work either, it just trips my circuit breaker. Should of spend the extra money and bought a DeWalt. |
One Star Reviews: | 5% One Star January 24, 2017 I'm trying to change the blade but it's not good. The instructions are not working. Very frustrating Low-quality material leads to broken control arms... August 25, 2016 After receiving the Homecraft H26-260L 10-Inch Compound Miter Saw, I was initially excited about getting a great deal on what seemed to be a decent, serviceable product at a lower price than I could've imagined. Unfortunately, mid-way into my first real project with the saw (simply cutting some trim for a dining room re-hab), the control arm snapped off. This means that I can't locked the blade into a specific angle any longer, and the blade can twist and move, making my cuts inexact. I was able to complete the project by being very, very careful, but... the whole saw is essentially ruined and can now only be used for work that doesn't require any specific measurements or attention to detail. From reading other review, I realize that this is a common problem with the saw, which must all have control arms made from very low-quality material. Too bad, it's a waste of an otherwise good product. Worse saw I have ever used. August 23, 2016 Hard to believe this is made by Delta. Worse saw I have ever used. The positive stops are barely recognizable and it does not come even close to stopping on them. Keeps you wondering if you are even on the right degree cut that you want. The handle you tighten in front to hold the rotating table into position is a push piece. You tighten it and it expands a bolt to the table pushing things apart.If you over tighten it down it will break as some have complained here already. A miter saw is about the table that it is mounted on and how it spins and performs and this is the worst feature of this saw. When I tried the laser function the beam is nowhere to be found on the piece I am cutting. Tried using it later in the day when there was less sun and could barely see it. Guess it is so weak it is useless. And when you lower the saw blade a piece on the saw covers the laser anyway. I don't get it. Who designed this thing? Now I see after less than 2 weeks it has come down in price $19 to $90. This saw is a big lemon and I'm sorry I bought it. If you are also considering the Hitachi then stop in Lowes and check it out. It is above and beyond this hunk of junk. Buyer beware!! August 4, 2016 I was so excited to receive this miter saw, as I'm a DIY fanatic and have a ton of projects that my hand saw equipped to handle. I busted this bad boy out of the box ready to cut some wood (I reframed the columns on my porch and hoped to trim them out and pretty them up). I read the directions, attached to my table and proceeded to cut a piece of wood approx 1/2x3. Less than 1/8 of an inch in, I saw smoke, immediately stopped and realized the blade wasn't turning anymore. I called the MFG at 4:30 and their offices had already closed (there hours are 8-5 eastern time, which is my time zone as well). Really, really disappointed. will NOT handle a 2x6. the provided clamp will ... October 9, 2015 will NOT handle a 2x6. the provided clamp will only handle a 2x4. a 2x6 will sit over the clamp. am probably going to return it based on this alone.-UPDATE-while packing up the saw for return, i decided to measure the board i bought incase it was bigger than 6 inches. its 5.5 inches. i measured the area from the clamp to the wall it holds the board against. it only measured 4.5 inches.just some more info and a warning: it absolutely will NOT handle a 2x6 clamped. you have to leave it unclamped and support the board with a second person's hands... and the saw says dont put hands there. | 0% There are no reviews yet |
