 Great saw for home owner or smaller handymen companys December 10, 2006

I bought this saw for the first job I had 3, years ago and it's still being used almost every day. The laser is off by 1/8" and can not be adjusted. The bearings are starting to get loose so the cuts a little off sometimes (1/16). The mitre readings are easy to read but there to cource.
I have trimmed at least 8 whole houses, built a lot of red oak stair cases. Pump houses, garages, dozens of laiminte floors and it's still working fine.
 A frustrating saw for even a casual carpenter May 12, 2007

I agree with Mark and Fred. I can't get the blade square with the fence because the fence isn't adjustable enough.
The bevel angles don't seem to be marked correctly (relative to each other, even), either - to get a true 45 degree bevel, I had to adjust the blade. Then, because of that adjustment, the saw couldn't cut straight up-and-down anymore, so I had to adjust the blade again.
I'm just a casual carpenter, but this saw has been rather frustrating. I don't have the tools necessary to modify the fence to make the saw more adjustable, so I have to live with crooked cuts or buy a new saw.
Note: I bought this saw new from Home Depot, not factory reconditioned from Amazon.
12" Ryobi Miter Saw January 11, 2007

I am a general contractor and a home craftsman with over 35 years on the job experience. I have been a fan of Ryobi products since 1993. I have never found Ryobi lacking quality or power to get the job done and done accurately. This purchased rebuilt 12" Compound Miter Saw is no different, I am very pleased with my purchase, the machine certainly lives up to my expectations and as alway Ryobi has never failed to deliver a quality built and durable product. I smile when my tools are borrowed on the job because the other more expensive tools have given up the ghost and Ryobi keeps chugging along.

I bought this saw when I started my handyman business in 2004. My first job was to install crown molding and I couldn't be carrying my radial arm saw around, so I spent the $200 for the Ryobi. I have had other tools from Ryobi and like them. I have a 3X21" belt sander that works great and a 4 cycle string trimmer that just keeps running even after the volunteers from my wife's community clean-up group gets through with it. This saw did okay on the crown molding but I was only cutting 45's and using the back cut method and I did have to tweak the angle to get a true 45. I was recently trying to cut a wide but small picture frame and instead of just making multiple cuts and tweaking the angle like I've done in the past, I decided to go ahead and align the thing. Well after a frustrating 2 hours and modifying the fence (as Fred did, another reviewer) I finally got the thing to cut perfect 45's...Guess what...It doesn't cut 90's anymore! Wish I could find some tools that are made in the USA. I would pay 3 to 4 times as much for a QUALITY tool!
12" Miter Saw w/Laser March 23, 2007

Got my new saw the other day and everything seems to work ok. The laser is a little off. Maybe because I bought a different blade right away. 80teeth instead of 28teeth it comes with. I tried to square the fense to the blade but could not. The holes in the fense are not slotted. I had to drill them out to get enough movement in the fense. It doesn't stop real fast but it stops in 2 to 3 seconds. Other then that, It' a saw. Beats my old 8 1/4" saw.
