36-6023 10 Inch Table Saw with 32.5 Inch Rip Capacity

This is a great contractor saw. I've owned several over the years, this being the most expensive one I've owned to date. It took a fair bit to setup the saw I'd say probably about an hour. The instructions were easy enough for me to follow, so I had no issues doing so. Once setup, the saw proved to be very easy to operate. I didn't have to do any calibrations to the fence, I found it close enough to use out of the box. I am not doing fine woodworking so I don't need millimeter precision. I bought this to finish some railing work on some Honduran Sapele in my living room. The cuts were clean and straight. This is not a heavy cabinet saw but found the vibrations were minimal. It is louder, again, not being a cabinet saw, but my cheaper saws were all much louder than this one. As with most sub $1k saws, you can throw away the miter gauge if you intend to do any decent miter cuts. This one is no different, but I won't hold it against the machine since it's the same industry wide. Get yourself a decent aftermarket miter gauge or build a miter sled for those cuts. The fence is straight ad mentioned before and the sliding mechanism is smooth and accurate. Again, not top of the line, but good enough for a saw at this price range. The blade cuts clean for general purpose use and for the railing project I had. If you plan to sell your work, you'll be replacing the blade with something more upmarket. Overall, I have another project planned, a wine display case, where I'll be able to cotinue to use this saw. I'll probably invest in a miter gauge and build a cross cut sled before starting that one. I have no doubts the saw will perform well.

I Love this saw! I purchased it 3 years ago here on Amazon and it’s been a great saw. The fence is so easy to use and it’s adjusted by just turning a dial, and it has accurate measurements represented on the fence ruler to tune in for fine adjustments. Can easily go directly to the cut width I want with confidence and not have to measure the fence each time. I’ve made 10’s of thousands of cuts with this saw so far in the 3 years that I’ve had it and I’m super happy with it. It looks great and functions well. It stays locked when cutting and the fence stays true. 95% of my cuts are hardwood, usually walnut with a bit of maple and it cuts it like butter. Even 3+ inch thick walnut hardwood cuts great. At this price point you’re not going to get a better saw. Save yourself some time and stop searching, just hit BUY IT NOW! You’ll thank me later.

Saw came mostly calibrated out of the box. Fence ruler was off by 1/16 inch, and the angle adjustment was off by 1 degree at the 45 degree stop. Blade is good enough to get started with, and the motor was plenty powerful. Cut through maple and cherry with little effort and no burning. The stand is very simple, and very stable. Angle adjustment is a bit stiff, though maybe it'll get easier over time. The power cord could be a couple feet longer. Ended up having to buy an extension cord just to have the saw more in the center of my garage instead of close to the wall with the power cord stretched tight. The throat plate is probably the worst part of the saw. It's impossible to get it flush with the table at the rear and left of the blade. This causes thinner rips to catch on the lip. Maybe I got a defect or a damaged one, but there's no support in the back because the slot is cut through to the back of the plate for the riving knife. This makes it bend in slightly with weight on it, making the problem worse. It's easy enough to buy or make a new throat plate, which is why I still give the saw 4 stars. It's just an extra expense that really shouldn't be there.

I've had this saw for a short period but all I can say it's a very good product. The good..... Haven't used the cart but it feels very solid much more stable than the ryobi that I had. The fence was straight from the factory and the rack &pinion system is very good after using a dewalt 7485 you don't wanna use another fence that's not rack and pinion .The blade was parallel from the miter slots only a 0.003 thousand of an inch wider in the back of the blade compared to the front checking it with a dial indicator which is good enough for me. The saw It's not to noisy. The 90&45 degree stops where good to go. The bad... miter gauge is wobbly but still usable. The blade that comes with it is not that bad but I would change it with a 50 tooth combo blade. The coating in the table top scratches and peels easily. All in all it's a very good saw for the money. I will update as the time goes by on how it's holding up. (Update) 2021 I have used this table saw almost every day and it's a work horse no complaints except the above one's and the marker for the measurements gets misalinged with heavy use i check it every 2 weeks or so and adjust it as needed. Overall very happy with this saw.

Table saw was great. From the box, fence was true, and everything functioned well. Ergonomics much better than other saws I’ve used. Downside to this table saw is the miter gauge is not great and possible cheap metal in some components. Shaft for blade adjustment broke so unable to adjust height now. Delta Machinery was very unhelpful as for Amazon who could only refund $80 something. Overall unhappy and regret purchasing this
