I bought this because I liked my brother's DW-874.  Bad move.  This thing is a piece of junk.  The clamp is horrible, It comes loose, the screw striped out after 6 months.  If you make 45 degree cuts the back of the clamp is so far back the blade can not cut all the way through the metal, to correct this you have to put an extra piece of material behind what you are cutting to space it out far enough to cut through.  It vibrates no matter what you cut.  I've used saws with less horse power ratings that have more power.  It trips breakers all the time on circuits that don't trip when I use my 110v welder.  If I had it to do over I would buy a hack saw!
