10" Table Saw - 2000W 5000RPM

I bought this as my joiner who were supposed carry out work for us, let us down. Didn't expect much, but i am very impressed with it. It was easy to assemble, no more than an hour, the instruction are realy clear to understand. The guide is very sturdy with no or little movement. The blade is very sharp and gives a great clean cut. As you can see by the photos. The extraction is very good, a decent vac will get most of the dust away.One let down is the miter guide. Its far too loose for any accurate cut, so will make a new slide guide for it.My advise, when cutting thin strips, make sure that the teeth are cutting down onto the wood, and not cutting towards you as the wood will fly out like an arrow behind you. As can be seen in the last photo.Its s grear little machine, plenty of power and very accurate for the price.

Excellent.

I'm really pleased with this saw. I got it as I've never had a table saw before, and I wanted to get a cheaper one to use for a couple of years before I commit to an expensive one.The saw was pretty easy to assemble, even though I couldn't do it upside-down as I didn't have a reference surface. I clamped a level to the top instead, and it was a little fiddly, but doable. The instructions are clear and easy to follow.The saw is light enough to lift pretty easily with two people. I imagine one tall, strong person could do it, too! I am short and not that strong, but I can still shift it around the workshop when I need to.Using the saw was pretty easy. The fence only clamps at one end, so of course, it's not as good as one which clamps at both ends. I put a clamp behind it to make sure it stayed in place, and in the future, I'll make a new, longer fence.I found the height of the blade easy to adjust. I didn't use the angle measurements on the dial to get it square, just a set-square which is easy enough. As 'test' cuts I ripped some 6' boards down to 6cm strips, which was pretty easy and I didn't feel any resistance even though the wood was a bit damp. The strips stayed consistent widths all the way through, so I was impressed.You know if you're getting a saw this cheap there are going to be compromises, but none of them were dealbreakers for me.Pros:- good value for money- easy to assemble- works well- seems to have reliable cuts so far- no kick or resistance when cutting- safety features (riving knife, blade guard) are good qualityCons:- the insert plate is plastic and a bit flimsy - I'm going to make new ones- surface is obviously not cast iron, so not perfectly flat with the extension wings- the on/off buttons are underneath and I found them a bit hard to reach quickly

Very good saw for the price

bought to replace my broken table saw, came very well packed easy to assemble and lightweight but really sturdy first time started scarred the ....out of me it seemed so much more powerful than my previous one it was like a plane engine had just kicked in, anyway fantastic cutter and really accurate even taking off mm at a time, you have the usual guides that can be adapted to suite that feel good quality.

I was pleased with the delivery it arrived before the due date. The box was easy to handle and unpack. The instructions were clear and precise, mostly diagrams. the health and safety requirements are clear and easily followed. When it is completely assembled it is a sturdy unit and a very useful addition to my workshop. My last saw gave me good service but it was heavy and difficult to move about, this new ParkerBrand 10" is easy to move and with its clear metric rip fence measurement readout gives a very accurate cut. The blade up and down is also easy to use and accurate.I can't wait to get started on the next projects my wife thinks up for me...

Don't be fooled by all the other similarly priced brands out there: take a quick look at the handles and you'll see they're all the same device, just different colours. I bought the cheapest.So, is it any good? Well, it takes a while to assemble. But once it's built it's pretty sturdy. I know others have complained that it doesn't fold, but I'll leave it assembled until I've done everything I need it for.+Stick a vacuum cleaner on the extraction (35mm) and it works well.+The blade cuts softwood, ply, MDF and hardboard with ease, you it you want a good finish you'll need a finer blade.+The ripping fence is ok most of the time - just don't put too much force on it.-The blade weaves as you wind it up to height - minor problem (may just be mine).-Thin material will wander under the ripping fence.-The mitre is awful - flimsy plastic and it snags in the T slot. Mitre angles are a big struggle.-The table itself is painted with a paint which grips. This, with the terrible mitre make it impossible to do cross cuts.-The riving knife is out of line with the blade, so wood snags at the back of the blade. I'm trying, but it's hard to bend it to the right alignment.So, for ripping skirting board it's fine, which is what I needed it for. And maybe bevels will come out ok. But for anything cross cut or mitred I would use a sliding mitre saw where possible.
