I know there are a lot of Ozito knockers but at just over $400 with a three year warranty it is pretty hard to go past. If it carks it after three years it has only cost you about $150 per year. About the price of a cup of coffee per week.

The beauty of this is that the back legs fold away and the front legs fold forward and you can then wheel it around like a wheel barrow because it has two wheels on it.

I couldn't find it on their website but a visit to Bunnings should give you a good idea of what it is like.
The warrantee is for replacement. I don't know what you can do if you decide, "These Ozito saws are rubbish." At this price you can expect it will cut, but I doubt that you can expect the accuracy or long life from more expensive brands such as Makita, Metabo and Hitachi, all of whom have fairly lightweight tablesaws.

I recently bought an Ozito reciprocating saw. I bought it for one task - to cut some shrubs that have grown around wire netting, and it did that fine. However, the blade holder slops all around the place, it vibrates seriously. How it differs from more expensive machines I don't know, but this one doesn't fill me with much confidence

The disk holder on an Ozito angle grinder I bought some years ago, again basically for one task, has since filled with rust.

I don't regret either purchase, but generally I prefer to buy more expensive brands of tools such as Makita (or their cheaper line, Maktec).
