Thank you for your review. I will be wanting to occasionally cut 100mm and 50mm square box section mild steel, and whilst it will do the 50mm I will probably use a 1mm metal cutting blade on an angle grinder for the 100mm (or a plasma cutter). For everything else I would want to work with, this machine will do it with ease, and the compact size is excellent! I think investing in blades specific for wood and metal will give cleaner cuts and extend blade life. I can't think of a more capable, compact machine with a 3 year warranty that can be had for £109. Update, I just bought it from FFX for £109 with free delivery. For the £20 extra for the Plus version, its a really good deal.

Es una sierra para recomendar 10/10. Suave para cortar Suerna pero tan duro motor agradable La sierra entra facil en la madera Corte fino Corte preciso Y la bolsa como todas las sierras son obsoletas. Buenos materiales Muy liviana fácil de cargar y ligera.

A new blade will normally give a clean cut. A quality blade will last longer. The blade on mine was blunt after laying a machined floor.

i had the r210. was ok but couldnt set it up for 45 cuts. i then bought the r210SMS (r210 with a reach). was nice but sadly after 10 cuts the brakes went on me . had to take it back. could NOT find the R210SMS anyyyywhere at all. EVO had a 2months waiting list to deliver to branches who sell it. So i bought this R185SMS+. ive made 2 picture frames with shabby pallete wood so far and only one cut was a bit off, however i think this is becuase the back edges wernt fully plum or i nudged it slightly. but as for noise, its not too loud. i attatched the bag but hardly any gets collected if im honest so i might hook the hoover pipe up and see how that goes. I PAID 120 for this model and happy so far. tried to do a 45 compound cut on a piece of 5 by 2 wood and the left side body moulding gets in the way sadly.
