Milwaukee Cut Off Saw [Posted on 2008-04-07] Saw if very powerful and does the jobs I have very well. It is as advertised.
GREAT SAW [Posted on 2008-04-10] I just got my new chop saw. I was cutting angle, flatbar, and square tubing. It cut through everything with ease, even 2 1/2 x 2 1/2 x 1/4 squre tubing. That impressed me.
Really good [Posted on 2008-05-03] This is the best chop saw I've ever used. I sent many years in a repair shop, and cut lots of iron. It would have been a better saw than I ever had to use. The quick angle change feature is really nice. I would recommend this to anyone.
Heavy Duty! [Posted on 2008-07-16] This is a very brawny, well made tool. Much better than the competition (the only one I've seen that is even close is the DeWalt, but it is no competition.) A typical Milwaukee tool--excellent!
MADE IN TAIWAN...and it's starting to show [Posted on 2008-08-14] When I buy a Milwaukee power tool I expect the best that money can buy, and I am more than happy to pay for it. Unfortunately, this tool is not worthy of the Milwaukee name. I bought the unit six months ago for a light-gauge steel construction project. Here are my observations:
+ Heavy. I agree with other reviewers - it has a nice, solid base and rigid vise.
+ Ergonomic. The D-handle and power switch are great.
- Excessive vibration. Roughest running chop saw I have ever used.
- Mediocre power. All other Milwaukee tools, and other brand chop saws I have used, have plenty of power. This one is lacking.
- Bearing chatter. Major cause for concern given that the saw has only been in service 6 months - and 6 easy months at that. It is getting so bad that sometimes the saw just bogs down and refuses to cut.
I checked the box and sure enough, it has a little sticker bearing the words, "MADE IN TAIWAN." If I had wanted some cheap piece of junk from Asia, I could have gotten it from Harbor Freight for half the price. Milwaukee, what have you done?
