I bought the wen porta band with hesitation. Im a Milwaukee and Dewalt as well as porta cable dude, however this band saw has worked flawlessly, speed variations, led light and well made construction. Only thing that i find or lesser quality is the band saw factory blade sucks. Replace it with a name brand blade and your off to the races. Ive been using it for 90 days approximately with no complaints (other than blade that comes with saw cheap) cut everything ive thrown at it like butter.Will buy more wen products as needed.Recommend it, and 5 stars because it performs just as good or better than my old name brand saws.Nice equipment. Thumbs up.

Funciona muy bien, corta rápido los perfiles con los que la he usado y para trabajos de esporádicos en casa está perfecta.

he usado varias herramientas para cortar acero y sin duda esta sierra cinta es la mejor que he probado, con capacidad para perfiles mas grandes que la mayoría por ese precio. La calidad es muy buena.

Funciona perfectamente, es increíble corta rápido y limpio. Muy satisfecho con la compra.

I was really excited about this tool.Unfortunately it arrived without a UK plug.Amazon AI confirmed that no mention of plug type was specified so one would assume that being available to UK would be UK compliant.I am sure it is a grand tool. Build quality looks alright.Functions well but, did need to buy a transformer box.

i had just recently gotten a mill an lathe to learn with an the fist big leason i learned was cutting steel with a hack saw is a pain in the ass so i got online an found horizontal bandsaw looked like the best option for what im working with but the prices was more than i was willing to pay then i stumbled across the wen bandsaw which was the same brand as the mill i recently gotten an from my experience i had with the mill i figured id take a chance on the saw an for it to be so much cheaper than other saws with the same cut capacity i was alittle worried what i would end up with but after getting it an using it to cut a few old hitches i had, 1.25" square it cut through in less than a might an i tried to use it to cut through a head off a 2.2liter gm motor so it was aluminum but it was able to get half way through on both sides leaving about an inch in the middle for me to finish getting through with the hack saw so its able to cut more than i expected so im very happy with it. i read alot of comments in the reviews saying the blade that it comes with isn't the best but with the little use i have on it now it doesnt look to have any wear or show signs of dulling so keep that in mind if u do pick this up, u might want to invest into blades from a different brands but as of right now im extremely happy even if the blade it came with is crap in the long run, its going to save me so much energy an time its well worth the money, only wish i could buy a base that would let me use it like a miter saw. oh an it is alittle heavy but thats not really a bad thing in my opinion but others did complain about it so if u work with it daily an make a living doing so then theres probably better options, this is the only tool like this ive ever owned or gotten to use so i dont know what the standards are to make it something that u would want to use while making a living so a few things i notices that would probably be expect for one that u would want to use daily but it does have a speed control 1 to 6 each number having a click as u come to it and theres also a light that can be turned on an off by a switch which i didnt notice at first an was glad to see once i found it but was surprised it wasn't just tied into the trigger but again i dont use something like this daily so that might be nice to have when working with alot but the down side to what i seen was very minimum adjustments for the belt or at least where i expected it to be, but if something happens an the blade doesnt run straight an true causing it to walk off the wheels i dont see any way of being able to adjust that, that might not be something they come with an the geometry of the tool might be all thats required to keep the blade running straight but i assumed there would be something that would let u adjust that if it was an issue. i had no issue with getting the blade on an tightened an it ran straight without issue so that may be something i was expecting when its not really a thing but that is the only down side i could find in the short time ive used it that might cause someone to not to want to buy this but if your someone who is just buying one to use around the house or for a hobby its perfect especially for the price its hard to beat. over time if anything drastic happens with it, i'll come back and update the review an hopefully i'll have some pictures to show but as of now, its one of my new favorite tools. working on a miter base for it now an if i cna manage to make something that works an is easy to recreate i'll try to share that as well cause that is one thing i wish i could find for it is a miter base but so far what ive found is more expensive than the next one up from this one that comes with a base so id just buy that an have 2 saws and a base for less than buying one of the bases i have seen for sell so hopefully i can pull off something that others can manage too.

Best way to cut metal I've found. Cuts fast and clean. 5 inch opening a huge plus. Great price.

Si bien se siente como una herramienta ligera, la realidad es que no deja nada que desear, cuenta con torque suficiente para cualquier tarea, ya la utilice en madera, tubos de acero calibres 18 y 14, barras de acero 1018 y 4140 y en todos corto como mantequilla, la recomiendo.

Me encantó, algo pesada pero buenísima para los cortes en acero maciso y en tubulares sueves, muy precisa y no calienta los materiales al corte, sería bueno que vendieran un adaptador para mesa y estaría excelente, hasta ahora muy feliz y satisfecho por la compra.

Trabaja muy bien no hay fierro que aguante su corte y lo mejor le quedan perfecto las sierras de Milwaukee

I like the saw, it seems to be pretty rugged. Have to see if it will last long term. For hobby use I think it's a good choice. Get a good blade for it, the one that comes with tha saw is not meant the cut straight. I like the led light feature, really helps to see cut lines. The saw has the holes to mount on a stand, so it can be converted into a stationary saw. I think it ok for hobby and medium duty projects.

muy buena!! corta muy bien, el peso; no es muy ligera pero es cómoda y es lo suficientemente manejable y tiene una construcción solida en sus plásticos y partes metálicas. lo único que creo que seria mejorable o un plus, que tuviera la opción de compra con base. ahora estoy en el proceso de hacerle una.

Excelente calidad. Muy robusto. Yo creo la misma compañia que manufactura otras marcas mas caras hacen estos tambien y se nota porque muchos componentes son iguales.
