Craftsman 10 in. Bench Table Saw 24888

Pros: light weight, easy to use, and plenty of power
Cons: blade slot is set below the table and the wood catches on the table.

I have had this saw for about 8 months. I gave $179.99 for the saw and that was on sale from $199.99. I thought that was a pretty good buy.

Assembly of the saw was easy. About all you need is a screw driver and some wrenches. The directions...

Pros: Capacity, performance, build quality, size, price.

Still going strong after six years
Cons: None that I can see.

I spent a great deal of time comparing table saws before I purchased this one and it really paid off. Let me start off by clarifying what this saw is not. It is not a professional/contractor grade saw nor at less than $200 should one expect it to be. If ...

Pros: Price,Durability,Adjustabililty,Moving it around
Cons: Unsturdy,Worthless blade safety piece,Some cheap plastic parts

I bought this saw December of 2002. Took it home and had to accessible it, and it seemed like allot of accessibly for such a simple saw, but at the time I really wanted to use it, since it was my first table saw. Here are some specs that I got from ...

Pros: Price, ease of assembly, removable key for safety
Cons: Non-standard miter gauge slot, flimsy fence, too lightweight

I bought this saw last December. "A 10" tablesaw for $200? Yippee!" Ugh... What a mistake. The whole thing is made of aluminum and plastic and made in Taiwan.

No matter what I did to the fence, it wouldn't align squarely. The miter gauge is a...

Pros: Outfeed extension
Cons: Extremely unsafe saw. This is an avoidable kickback waiting to happen.

I was given this saw as a gift. It was a thoughtful gift and I appreciated the sentiment....however... Saw Specs from Sears: 15-amp direct drive ball bearing motor produces 5000 rpm Extension allows for 24" right and left rip capacity Diecast ...

Pros: Dirt Cheap, 90Day return policy, can brag about owning a table saw
Cons: May be better off with a $15 handsaw.

Have you noticed that the $200 Sears saw comes in about 1000 different models but all look about the same? Either this is some case of kaizen in action or a company selling a bad saw and renaming it to kill a trail of negative reviews. The model I ...

Pros: inexpensive, has a wide ripping capacity
Cons: unstable, supports sag under slightest pressure.

I bought this saw on sale for 179.99. What initially sold me was the fact that it had a very wide ripping capacity. It also came with a stand witch was a plus. I feel that this saw is great for the homeowner or do-it- yourself-or. It can rip to widths...

Pros: Inexpensive, wide ripping capacity, portability
Cons: Not a shop saw

Too many reviewers have unreasonable expectations for this saw. It is a bench saw, not a true shop t ...

Pros: Reasonable Price, Seemingly unique features
Cons: Poor accuracy, Inconvenient

When this saw was purchased I was purely a novice so my impression of this tool is different now from when it was purchased. Setup of the saw was time consuming but not difficult at all. The parts are primarily plastic so be careful. As with most...

Pros: Many features for the money
Cons: Blade clearance Sloppy non-standard Miter Plastic mounts

I bought this saw knowing it was not a shop-quality saw, but I figured it would be good enough for my occasional use. This saw has many clever features for a saw in this price range. 24" cuts on both sides, outfeed support, on-board storage. It is ...

Pros: Inexpensive
Cons: Cheaply built (see pro, above), non-standard miter, inaccurate fence, useless dust control

This is my first table saw. I needed it in a hurry, it was on sale at Sears Canada, and it appeared to be better than other saws in its price class. Appearances, unfortunately, are deceiving. The saw goes together easily, but the result is a disappoint ...

Pros: Cuts wood, as long as straightness and repeatability aren't important.
Cons: Loud Poor dust collection unsafe doesn't cut consistently.

I purchased this saw about two years ago, trying to build some basic stuff like small cabinets and bookshelves. This was my first table saw, so I had no previous experience with which to compare. In building things like bookshelves, it was very ...

Pros: Price; Storage
Cons: Plastic; No blade height lock

I received the 24885 table saw as gift to replace an old table saw that just was not safe to operate. I was very enthusiastic until I started putting it together and was further deflated after one use. Pros: 1. Good storage compartment. Lot's of ...

Pros: Easy to put together.
Cons: No power.

I have wanted a table saw for a long time. I am working on a large remodel project right now and this is the one I bought. I have regretted it ever since. I should have saved up and purchased a better one. The company is great and for fly by night ...

Pros: A lot of little of dohickies at a cheap price.
Cons: Poorly made. Can't handle big cuts. Has no accuracy.

Bought this table saw on sale at Sears. It was mismarked and I got it for over $70 less than the original price. What a deal. I mean I can't go wrong for that price, right? Wrong. Honestly, I must take some blame myself. I didn't study enough ...
