 Excellent except for one issueOct 08, 2009

The laser was off slightly on mine. I contacted the seller who asked me to return it for a refund. I chose not to because I am quite happy with the saw. When the seller (Skil Shop) found out I was not returning it they referred me to other web-sites that could assist me in repairing it myself.
If Amazon had a favorite sellers list I would put Skil Shop on it.
I'm very pleased with this saw and I got a great value on it. It's meeting my needs perfectly. I have not repaired it yet I've been too busy. When I do I will post an update. From what I have seen it is a simple fix.

Great ValueJul 21, 2009

I have been using this saw to cut Hardieplank panel. It has been up to the challenge. The laser guide was accurate right out of the box, did not require any callibration. I expect to get many years of use out of this tool.

Skil Laser SawSep 12, 2009
By Ronald J

Glad I took a look at the Reconditioned Saw on Amazon. The price was better that at the local authorized resellers and the delivery was just what I needed to start on a big project. This is my first laser saw and it really helps with making the cuts where they should be. I have been using reclaimed lumber and all a coming out the same.

Quality circular saw for an affordable priceJul 09, 2009
By Patrick David
Was looking for an affordable circular saw for a project. Decided to save a few dollars and purchase this reconditioned Skil. The saw arrived within two days of purchase (fast shipping!). The craftsmanship of the saw is of high quality. Even though this is my first power saw, I am able to make straight cuts using the laser guide. Plenty of power for my needs. This saw is a good choice for household projects: a little more expensive than some other models, but well worth the price.

 Does the jobSep 18, 2009
By JH

A couple of issues:
1) Initially cutting with this is difficult as the guard was difficult to push up.
2) Horsepower-wise it was ok. I was previously using my dad's el cheapo Black and Decker 10 amp saw and it seemed about the same in that department.
3) The laser stopped working on my saw on the second project I used it for. Not sure if there is a battery or something, but honestly I didn't find the laser that useful for a circular saw anyway so I haven't bothered to look into it.
It's an ok saw, pretty sturdy, and it suits my needs, but I'd probably consider another brand for next time.
