This is a great tool, it works very well and makes sharpening sawblades easy.
The tool works very well. There aren’t enough parts to make it complicated to assemble. There is a picture on the box so if you don’t get, it look at the photo. I agree that the chuck is too small for standard 1/8 inch bits like Dremel uses. Problem solved, I went to my Dremel kit and had an extra chuck insert. It fits perfectly. Now I can use up the PowerCare bits that I bought as well as standard 1/8 bits. You can buy the Dremel chuck for a couple of bucks if you don’t have one. Just use the insert, use the Power care sleeve that holds the chuck. Don’t know if the Dremel sleeve would have the right threads so why bother, just use the one that came with the tool. Then buy some 1/8 inch diamond bits and you’re all set.

    In the first 10 seconds of using the tool the sharpening stone broke. I was upset and looked to see where this product was manufactured and immediately saw the words Made in China. I have to say it upset me even more knowing that another product made elsewhere ( China ) . Manufacture in the US again

    First time user - This tool worked exactly as I hoped. It was simple & straightforward. Look at saw chain edge that needs touched up & apply sharpener in logical fashion. I sharpened all teeth while still on bar. Went out & cut fresh wood lickity split. Don't be discouraged by any negative reviews - this tool works fabulous - I used the medium bit for 3/16 which was appropriate for my chain type.

    does the job well
    This tool works well. Sharpened the chain well and was able to cut wood like butter. I’ve cut wood for over 30 years and if you know how to sharpen a chain this tool will do the job. Yes stones will wear out but thats to be expected. Keep the rpm lower and take your time, it will work

      I didn't finish sharpening the first chain before the sanding bit broke. Then I discover only their bits will fit the device.

      Well, this did successfully sharpen my chain, so I'll give it that. However, the instructions for setting it up were poorly worded nonsense accompanied by blurry photos of someone's fingers preventing a view of the product. On my second use (third chain), the sharpening stone broke in half.For both of these issues, I'd have liked to communicate with the company, but nowhere on the package or instructions is there contact information. I can't even find a web site. As a result, I'll probably end up returning it to Home Depot.

        This 120VAC sharpener is much better than my old 12VDC sharpener. The feature I like most is the power button with a rheostat that allows me to control the speed of the spin. To me, that makes it worth the money.
