This is my first table saw, so I am certainly no expert. The table saw seems well built and solid. There aren't a lot of parts, and I wish the instruction book had sentences and not just pictures. There are pages about safety, but nothing explaining each part or assembly. Now, certainly someone with zero experience with saws and the like probably shouldn't start with a random table saw, but as there are variances to each brand of any tool, this item too should be a bit more specific about its features. That being said, it comes fully assembled with just a guard and a guide needing to be put into place. There are also ways to attach a shop vac to reduce the mess, but my cheap shop vac doesn't have a compatible hose (duct tape here I come!). Power switch is easily accessible and extremely easy to power off. Blade tilts up to 45 degrees. Does not come with a stand.
