Tools and Hardware Reviews of Factory-Reconditioned Ryobi ZRTS1342L 10-Inch Compound Miter Saw with Laser
Customer Review: Good saw, great price, reconditioned?
Summary: 4 Stars
The saw arrived in about 3-4 days, even with super-saver shipping. At first glance, I had trouble seeing exactly *how* it had been reconditioned. It basically looked (and functioned) like a brand new saw. If I had to nitpick, the degree meter on the left-and-right sway (the part of the saw that makes it "compound") showed a tiny bit of wear and the yellow plastic saw trough had a couple small nicks. Overall, mine might as well have been new.
For the price I paid, ~$80 shipped, a better compound miter saw (with a *very* useful laser, btw) can probably not be found. If you're cutting crown molding with this, it's great. If you're cutting quarter round, also great. If you're hoping it will be a table saw substitute ... well, you're obviously limited to a 6" (or so) cut, so cutting long boards will require a different saw. That's probably obvious to most, but if not ... keep it in mind.
Customer Review: great saw except one detail
Summary: 3 Stars
I am very happy with this saw except one detail. The back fence on the saw is not tall enough. On the far left of the fence there is a very short section that is taller but the rest of the fence both left and right of the blade is too short. I realize this is made this way so there is no interference when the saw is tilted for a compound cut, but I now know other mfgs. use a flip-over section of fence. Standard 3-1/4" baseboard will not stand up straight because the fence does not clear the recessed relief cut on the back of the molding. A very poor design flaw on the part of Ryobi in my opinion. Otherwise a great saw for the price. Packaging on the part of Amazon was bad, the saw was just put in a box loose and shipped. Fortunately it arrived undamaged.Customer Review: EXCELLENT SAW for the price
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought the Ryobi Compound Miter w Laser to replace a 10 year old Ryobi 10" Standard Miter Saw (a real work horse too). I do a lot of molding & finish carpentry and don't know how I ever lived without a laser saw... I'll never use a saw without a laser again! For cutting molding, I simply use a sharpie to put a dot where the cut should be...and perfect every time. The price of a factory recon w free shipping @ $75 is great. Home Depot has them new for $119 - and still a great deal. I did notice that the newer saw is much lighter duty than my old beast - but at that price it's the right saw for anyone except the Contractor / heavy use guys.Customer Review: You Get What You Pay For----Buy New
Summary: 2 Stars
I purchased this saw and the day of delivery it was listed in a newspaper flyer $10 cheaper BRAND NEW!!! The saw has wear on it and was covered in sawdust in a loosely packed box--makes you wonder how much attention was given to the reconditioning. "C'Mon Man", don't you have an air hose at the factory and can't you at least take 30 seconds to blow it off? Bottom line--you get what you pay for. I could not justify returning this product due to the return shipping and a 20% restock fee. Be careful of return policies with products not directly purchased from Amazon. My experience has taught me to buy new. I would avoid this product.Customer Review: Reconditioned Ryobi Miter Saw Review
Summary: 5 Stars
I found the Miter Saw in excelletn condition, in fact it is hard to tell it is a reconditioned model. I have used it extensively for some projects and I am very satisfied. The laser line marking the place where the cut is to be made is most useful because it allows you to make precise cuts. The price was excellent and think I had a great value.
Additionally, the delivery service was first class and arrived here when it was promised.
