Customer Reviews for RIDGID 15 Amp 10 in. Portable Corded Jobsite Table Saw with Folding Stand

One of the best purchases I’ve ever made. If I had to give one complaint….the setup instructions could be better. Just pictures and not very clear or user-friendly. But wow what a product for the money.

...the motor started to spark severely & lose power. Possibly bad carbon brushes. Stopped an urgent project during a very inconvenient time. Although the LSA will probably cover the repair, I have to wait for the only shop within 30 miles to open. The project was a day before July 4th - the only time I had to do it. I was relying on this saw to pull me through. Flimsy components. Miter guide guage very difficult to adjust and increments difficult to read since it is black on black.

Perfectly thought out in every way. I love this saw!

Not exactly 90 degrees cut

This was quite honestly one of the poorest performing saws I’ve used ever. The fence wouldn’t stay in alignment with the blade no matter how much I tried. After a multitude of cuts I found that the fence would drift and that wasn’t due to slamming material against it which is the case with higher end saws. It would deviate anywhere from 1/8” to 1/2” just by running your cuts repetitively. I had to constantly realign and lock the fence upon finding out this flaw. Another thing to note is that the fence doesn’t register square against the reference point. You have to manually square it to the blade from the front and back of the blade CONSTANTLY. This would be a good saw for rough framing and even then I would find this nuance as annoying because you have to rerun your material through the saw. I give it a 2 star rating because for the finish carpenter, there are plenty of other saws for a little more coin than this poor excuse of a saw. Hopefully ridgid fixes this reoccurring issue as a table saw should be able to make repeatable and at the very least accurate cuts every time. Buy a Dewalt or comparable brand and save yourself the headache.

Nice saw but noisy and rattles on start up. After it's wound up to operation speed it runs smooth with plenty of power. A little pricey for what it is but with a lifetime warranty I can't complain.

worked well, easy set up

I’m a professional cabinet installer and I’ve had this saw for about a year. While it gets the job done, the fence and tape are absolutely terrible. The way the fence clamps on makes it impossible to get perfectly straight. The tape is a terrible design as well. Home Depot’s site won’t allow me enough characters to properly describe the issues, so all I can say is don’t buy this saw because the tape and fence are absolute garbage. I’m replacing this saw ASAP.

The saw was light weight and easy to set up. Works well for my needs.

This saw was purchased to replace an older Delta I had that had served its purpose for many years. This saw has a ton more features then my old one did. So far I love it.

Would not cut 45 degree so we returned.

I have had my saw for five years and have cut tons of hard wood. I have used it to rip heart pine 2x6s that means running it twice to complete the rip because if 3 inch blade height. The only trouble I have had is blade height adjustment knob broke although it took 4 years of heavy use. I will be ripping 11 10 ft 2x6s tomorrow. I did 8 the other day. U burnt me dewalt up doing this after 8 months. If you learn to adjust the saw as needed it will give you years of service.

The fence on this saw is totally useless. wobbles and doesnt stay true to blade.Cheap cheap cheap.Did I say cheap? Motor cuts well. This is not a saw for fine woodworking. Ok to build a dog house.

This saw has plenty of small issues, but those were all expected in purchasing a jobsite saw. The table is not flat (mine was out almost 1/8"), the miter slots bind because of the plastic coating on the top (high grit sandpaper around a block helped solve this), the blade can be squared on either the right or left, but not both. the fence is kind of a mess because it too often locks out of square on the rear of the table (pressure on the rear outside of the fence to remove deflection). There's almost no reason to connect a shop vac to this things (dust collection is horrendous), but I dealt with all of this because I got this saw for under $300. Today, after two years of use, mostly on weekends, the saw brake stopped working, the motor makes an awful noise, and there's some sort of blue fabric hanging out the front of the motor underneath the table. I haven't opened it up yet because it was late in the day and I needed to keep going on projects. I feel fairly certain the saw is dead now, which is a shame. However, I did get two years out of it, and at that price point it is a fair deal. Would I buy it again? No.

15 years I’ve been using Ridgid tools. Love the quality and felt good about the warranty. My local Home Depot changed their policy this week and will not handle any of the tool repairs. Now you call their 800 number to find a service center. The nearest one in Arizona was 324 miles away!! That’s the same as no warranty!! Shame on you!!

Love the saw but not the biggest fan of the table. Seems a bit unsteady.

If you want a table saw that will slowly drive you crazy this is your saw. It will not give you a 90 degree cut. I spent months trying to use this saw and give it chance after chance. If you just need to rip something and it doesnt need to be square, this saw is fine. Its powerful enough to cut every board they sell at Home Depot. It does strugle with hard woods but thats the nature of a saw this size so i dont hold that against this saw. Oh But if you need two boards to join up flush it will not happen. Over the last year ive spent several days trying to dail in the blade I was able to get 45 but it will not get to 0 (90 degrees). Ive got undernieth and turned the little kidney bean so it was no where near the stop bar and pulled the motor as far as it will go and it dosen’t get to 90. Its like the support track on the back doesnt go far enough. The track goes past 45 a little bit so dailing that in was not to hard but it doesnt seem to reach far enough to get it to 90

After having purchased numerous tools from Ridgid I sadly disappointed with this product. I have had to replace height adjustment knob twice in the past 12 months (plastic). If I had known then what I know now I would have definitely changed my purchase.

Very happy with new tool, great upgrade from my old reliable Ryobi, thanks Ryobi for your service

Cuts great if you don’t need any accuracy. Can not cut a true 90 since the top is not flat. Tried and tried to adjust it but with the top with a dip in it not much you can do with it. Also the aluminum fence is con-caved so the stinks too. I would recommend spending little extra for a better saw. Cast aluminum is no good.

Nice job site table saw.

I would have to admit that at 332.00 this is a very well built, and operating table saw. It very smooth and balanced. Many years ago i had a 600.00 delta and this rigid remings me of that delta.
