Garbage. Don't waste your money
The saw pulls to the left, especially on a long cut when the blade heats up. Depth setting is a pile of junk, loosens up all the time. Nor does it have a safety start. My $29 Skil saw was much better than this, at a fraction of the cost.
The picture I've included with this review shows what this saw does. That wobble was despite using a 3/4" high guide to keep the saw on the line. Utter garbage.

Great saw....cuts through wood like butter. The guard can stick a bit and the depth adjust is maddening. But, if you take the time you can figure it out and work with it. Put a Diablo blade on it and you have a gem of a saw. Easy to work with. Note ...the cut guide mark is actually the immediate left of the blade....meaning a cut on a line will actually cut to the right...and leave the line, which I find helpful. How the depth adjust design passed muster is beyond me. Basically, a little spring holds the hold thing in place...or not.

Extremely fragile for a tool
Loved the weight of the saw due to its lightweight components. Saws power seems adequate. Only problem is the saw pulls on long cuts. The deal beaker with this saw was pulling the saw from tool bag, only to find that fancy magnesium shoe had cracked and broken off a corner during transport. Definitely not the quality I had come to appreciate from the Ridgid brand.
