Lightweight
The Pros: This little saw is one hand light. It has a nice handle built in, and you can pick it and carry it anywhere. The unit has a nice little built in blade compartment located on the front of the saw; there is also a built-in mitre bar holder under the table. The components are well thought out. The blades are push-button easy to change. All blades must be T-shank jigsaw blades. Cons: The unit will cut, (cross cut) light woods like pine and poplar up to 2 X 4 dimensions. Harder woods, like oak don't get done much past 3/4 inch boards. Ripping anything is tedious and inaccurate. The chatter and wiggle as the board is pushed towards the blade requires great concentration and patience on the part of the user. This is a great little machine for small cuts in light boards. Nothing more. It is a convenience when working with pine moldings, pine or poplar shelf boards and light (1/2 inch) plywood. I bought the unit, and I'm glad I did. After some experimentation, I know what it can and cannot do. It is a light weight convenience for softer wood cross cuts, and perhaps some very short board rips.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Bummer.No Longer Variable Speed.
No longer variable speed, making it not usable for cutting soft metals, which is the main reason I purchased. A slower blade speed is necessary when cutting metals, as at FULL BLAST the blade will quickly heat, dull, and clog. Also no printed instructions are included. The blade release doesn't seem to work easily, although without instructions, I am far from being an expert. Overall build quality of the tool is good, and at the refurbished price is probably worthwhile IF you don't need blade speed control.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Good but the first model was better.
I have owned 4 of these BLADE RUNNERS. The first model was the best saw mainly because of the blade guide and tension bar over the material you are sawing. The new models do not work very well in holding the material you are cutting and have very little adjustment. It is difficult to get the blade guard up off the material if you have to in the middle of a cut. There was nothing wrong with the first model and I have no idea why Rockwell changed it. I make a lot of small wood crafts and this saw is perfect for what I do. I take the blade guard off and mount the blade guard from my first BLADE RUNNER saw.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Inexpensive portable unit could be tweaked...
They just need to put spring tension on crosscut guide and/or a place to store it during carry, even Velcro strap might do. Blade storage area should be bigger to accommodate top guide hardware when removing guide to lower profile for mobile transport. The packaging box is heavy duty, it could act as a case if it could pack down into it. Some say the roller blade guides could be closer which seems valid to say. YouTube says blade caoul be tweaked to square with table better. Ultimately it's pretty cool and just needs a little more design sensibility.

Nice little bench saw!
I was looking for a small benchtop saw just to handle 'hobby' sized projects. I have both a chop saw and large table saw but both were too big for delicate work. The Blade runner fit the bill and I've already used it for a project. Easy setup (instructions could have more text rather than just pictures!) and I was up and running n 10 mins. Saw did a great job ripping 1/4" oak and 3/8' pine. However a few downsides: unless you hold your work firmly the stock will jump and vibrate. The fence guide is a bit tough to line up perfectly square using the black on black rule guide. You simply can't see the rear guide without a lot of focused light. Ripping long stock (more than 16") into strips less than 3/4 is difficult because the distance between the splitter and the fence isn't wide enough and the stock would not fit between the splitter. I experimented with a bit of 'scrolling' and was satisfied with the results. Overall I'm very happy with my purchase and would recommend this for hobby grade work... nothing heavier!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

A handy toy for the shop
The is like a jigsaw mounted upside down on a table. It will not replace a real tablesaw. Its for small projects and it does that rather well. With the exception of cutting circles, it can cut anything your jigsaw can. The blade is stabilized by rollers on either side of the blade. The instructions used diagrams which were not printed completely clearly. Installing the blade is simple once you look at it closely and have the guide arm all the way down. I would have preferred a metal table surface rather than plastic. Get yourself a selection of "T" blades and go make some sawdust.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

jig saw with a table
Only have use this saw only once and it work pretty well for rmy project. It was a bit loud, so ear protection is recommended. the table makes it more secure then a hand held jig saw. and can do cross cut and longer rips. lots of plastic, so its light weight. Has a handy blade box to keep all your different type of blades. It uses the T shank style bladesVerified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

If You Use It As Intended... it's a Rock Star!
Ok first I was looking for an alternative to a scroll saw. I have very limited space and just needed an inexpensive machine to make small cuts. This unit is actually a jigsaw mounted upside down in a table saw like format. Second, I understand the limitations of a jig saw vs. a scroll saw. So should you before you buy this. It is NOT a table saw. It is NOT a scroll saw. It IS a jig saw. If you can get past the point that the ability to make fine cuts is all on your patience and your blade type and you aren't running 2x4's through this thing, then you'll be fine :) Make sure you go get a wide variety of blades. The more TPI (teeth per inch), the finer the cut, but also the slower you will have to work. Also, get the cross cut sled that is sold separately. It's just a lot easier to work with than the provided gear. I think that's about it. It cuts and is very easy to put on a shelf when you are done. For less than $100. Yep that works.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Great Hobby Saw, Lightweight Great Features
Very nice lttle hobby saw (uses saber saw blades). This is a light duty machine, so it's not designed for ripping 4x8 pieces of plywood or cutting 2x4's all day long. I wanted something safer to use than a circular saw. . . this fits the bill. I am getting a really good look at the different types of blades you can use, too. Very nice! Thin metal, fast cut wood, clean cut wood, . . before I used one blade for everything. duh. It's pretty light, so vibration is a problem. Precise cuts are possible if your are careful, use the right blade for the job, and hold stock steady. Much better than using a saber saw for everything.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Ok for materials 1/2" thick, but has trouble with 3/4" materials
The guard design for blade is a weakness for this tool as it limits the minimum width of cut or at least makes it difficult to cut narrow strips. Also cyclic rate is too low for efficient cutting. Third weakness is the instruction manual. Unit is made reasonably well and the rip fence works but has a tendency to move during use.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
