It's a great tool on a framing jobsite. It makes cutting 3X(1 cut)  and 6X(2 cuts) very easy.  The depth adjustment is a big plus as well.  You can easily adjust for special notches and material thicknesses.  The two drawbacks so far have been the lack of a ladder hook and the blade guard.  The guard is shaped in such a way that it can sometimes get stuck on the material being cut.  Overall I like picking up this saw to cut 6X material over the much heavier BigFoot.
