4.0 out of 5 stars Tablesaw comments, November 28, 1999

This review is from: Jet JWTS-10JF / 708301GK 10" Table Saw with JETFence

I've owned this saw for the past couple of years and have been happy with it. The fence seems more solid and smoother than others in this price range. TEFC motor a plus, keeps dust out of the innards of the motor. It is also very smooth and vibration free. Plenty of power for anything I've wanted to do with it.

Only complaint-the blade guard is difficult to remove and replace, can be an issue when switching often between dato set and saw blades.

This review is from: Jet JWTS-10JF / 708301GK 10" Table Saw with JETFence

This saw is a really good saw....Cuts well, runs well and accurate. If I was to do it all over, I would get the same saw but with the cast iron wings though because the steel wings don't stay flat and true especially if you have the saw set up to be moved around like I do because every time you move the saw, you grab the saw by the wings and it seems to throw the wing off a little and then when you go to make a cut, the wing isn't perfectly flat with the table. Also, Jet's fence does not lock down too well so it could move on you once you lock it down. I spent extra above the cost of the saw later to get the cast iron wings and the xacta fence where if I wasn't so cheap earlier, I could have gotten the whole package from Jet a LOT cheaper! Yet another lesson on going cheap when making the original purchase. So get the saw, but with the better fence and the better wings!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great saw, but get the model with cast iron wings, November 12, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Jet JWTS-10JF / 708301GK 10" Table Saw with JETFence

The saw is great, assembles well, cuts great, smooth operation, etc. The fence, while not as solid as a Biesemyer, is perfectly usable. I use this saw and a Forrest WWII blade for furniture building and the precision is fine. Paint from the steel wings, however, tends to rub off on stock - probably true of any contractor saw with painted steel wings. Every time I use the saw I wish I had spent the extra $100 and bought the model with cast iron wings.
