Having been burned countless times on Amazon by disappointing purchases that don't match the photos, I am always deeply skeptical of new brands and products. My hope was to use this saw to cut up and remove a 16' x 16' concrete foundation. I like the heft and stability of this product, and did not find any issues except parts of the machine becoming very warm near the motor after about 30 minutes of continuous usage, but I don't know if this is because I over-used it in a short time period. Overall, I found the saw to be very well balanced in the hands, and comfortable to hold. The grips are fairly large, which I appreciate because my hands are usually XL in glove size. The trigger assembly is moderate pressure to engage. Using the brand new saw blade, I had no issue cutting through 6 inches of concrete and rebar, but had to be careful of the gravel underneath which sometimes caused the saw to kick an inch or two above my cutting line. Slow and steady wins the race.I would recommend this concrete saw, the value is incredible for the price. Buy one before another trade war spikes the cost of all imported tools, pretty sure these deals are going to be a thing of the past.
