Evolution Power ToolsR185SMS+ Compound Saw with Multi-Material Cutting, 45 Degree Bevel, 50 Degree Mitre, 210 mm Slide, 1200 W, 210 mm, 230 V, (3-Year Warranty)

Excellent saw , cuts anything and everything. Cuts wood perfectly after cutting metal and vice versa. Powerful, easy to use and great value for you money.

Wanted to give this a some extended use before leaving a review, as too often your first opinion can change over time.Must say that I am genuinely impressed. The cut is true and although I did need to make a slight adjustment to the set up when first used, this is something that you should always check and not rely that everything is 100% accurate.The blade provided is a good multipurpose cutting one. And because of the extended cutting arm it will go through objects of significant size. The bevel/mitre cuts are true and will not move during multiple cuts.The unit is solid though lightwieght and portable (this was the reason I purchased a smaller saw- I got fed up with tha agro of lugging a larger one around all the time).Set up is easy (although as I noted earlier, check the blade accuracy when setting up- there are some easy to follow youtube videos that will guide you through the procedure). And register with Evolution for the warrantee- it's very easy to do.Remember though, as good as this is, it is an entry level saw- and it will have it's limitations.

For the price, good chops saw good battery life. Works well fantastic.

What a lovely bit of kit! Straight out of the box the mitres, straight cuts and bevels are accurate, I brought this to cut arcs and mouldings so Impressed ..Nice to buy something for a change and not feel its been thrown together or its close to being great but not quite right " you get my meaning "Setting up looks a bit scary when you open the box but it's really not its very intuitive and goes together easy, be mindful though! There are two spring loaded lugs on the side of the sliding rail the need to sit into the lug holes, mine got stuck first attempt but easily resolved ..there a good clip on YouTube that shows how to reset if needed.I can't comment on the overall durability because I've owned the saw o ly for a couple of days but early signs are excellent..One more important point I own a few Urbauer EXT tools...the batteries are the same 4ah works with this saw fine ..

even though was tricky for me to put blade in and suss out what's what, i found this to be of good quality, took me 2 weeks to pluck up courage to use it being a woman of a certain age etc, but glad i did it cut my wood of 22cm x 4cm nicely but anymore than that it certainly would not cut. love this saw am glad i use it more n more, well worth the money, only downfall it is pretty bulky to store away

Very good at what it does with the various angles. The multi blade is fantastic no need to change blades during the job. Nice clean cuts from wood, plastic to metalThe only downfall to this machine is its size and has limitations on how big/long you can cut. With that said I knew that when I bought it as read the specs. On those limited times I can just flit the material round ie laminate flooring you are about 3cm short form a full clean cut but as I say flipped it round and finished the cut, much quicker and cleaner than a jigsaw for that type of job. Cutting cls etc for framing just flies through it

Recently bought this for a 30 sq metre decking project, and so far it has worked really well and definitely one of the better mitre saws in the market - for the price you cant go wrong. Not bulky and fairly easy to lift and move around.Iv used it on 120mm treated timber, no problem at all slices through like butter.Used on composite decking as well and no problem at all.Finally used on 100mm fence posts, had to cut twice by turning the post around - as long as you measure correctly it will cut through fine.The blade has worked well so far. I used the laser guide in the start, but after a few uses you can sort of judge the cut and carry on with ease.Haven't yet had a chance to use it on Mitre/Bevel cuts yet, but the way its going doubt there will be any issues, overall quite pleased with the purchase and a fairly decent brand - Evolution, definitely recommend for DIY.

Great for project work where mains supply is restricted and you don’t want to take a generator.Robust, batteries last about 20 mins 4ah on almost constant use, get 2 or 3 batteries if you are going to use it a lot and always charge them up when empty 😎
