Factory-Reconditioned Ryobi ZRRTS10 10-in Portable Table Saw w/ Stand

Overall, a great investment for the money ($109)for a product that looked to be brand new. The base is sturdy, it has plenty of power for the average handy man and it's simple to set up and use. I was able to rip through treated 1x8's without a problem with the factory blade but wouldn't recommend keeping that blade in use for an extended period. The blade guard is poorly designed but dosen't seem to be much of a draw back. My biggest complaint is that the clamps on the locking bar are pretty weak and require the use of C-clamps for it to securely lock in place. It's definitely not a contractor grade tool but if you're looking for a saw to remodel a room or do other simple jobs, you'll be happy with this item.

Note: Very similar (almost identical) to the Craftsman Evolv series table saw with the same specs.

THIS REVIEW IS FOR THE FACTORY RECONDITIONED MODEL. My old 10" Craftsman table saw gave up after 26 years of good service. I used it for some home cabinetry which I built to close tolerances over the years. Now I'm no longer in that mode, but I do need to cut miscellaneous 1x and 2x stock plus 1/2" to 3/4" plywood from time to time. I doubt if I'll ever need to cut a full 4x8 sheet again. This Ryobi seemed like just the right fit for my current needs, as it has proven to be, especially considering the very, very attractive price. I was not going to spend upwards of $300 for a table saw that I'd rarely use and even then for simple projects. The Ryobi arrived well packaged and protected. The set up was clear and easy from the instructions provided. It seems more than adequately powered, cutting very cleanly. I particularly like its aluminum construction to keep weight down so I can transport it without its stand in the back of my Prius to my son's house to help with his...Read more

I have several reconditioned Ryobi products that I am happy with and this saw is no exception. It does not have a full size table, but on the other hand it is light enough to be portable. I have used it for cross cuts and ripping and it does a fine job. The fence is reasonably sturdy, although the mitre gauge/pusher is probably too small for precision jobs. The height, angle, and power switch controls are sturdy.
