WEN 7.25-Inch Track Saw, Variable Speed (CT1274), Corded Electric

Used it for the first time last weekend to rip some sheets of 3/4 inch plywood. Even using the Wen blade it came with there was almost no blowout. Cut perfectly straight using the Wen tracks. Dust collection wasn’t perfect but worked fairly well with a shop vac attached. Time will tell how it holds up but this thing performed well beyond expectations. I’m not sure how other brands justify charging so much more.

Absolutely blown away! Using it with the Wen tracks. Saw works beautifully for 3/4 plywood. I am in actual disbelief as to how perfect the cuts come out. This is with the blade that came with it yet! Love it!

This was my first experience using a track saw so I watched a lot of "how to" videos about them and a lot of review videos on this Wen. It really helped me succeed making our new fireplace mantel that is part or our family room re-model. I can't match the quality and depth of the reviews on YouTube but I will say this: The cuts had to be straight and square in order for the result to look good - but the saw also had to make the cuts without too much struggle. My pine door was held together with mortise and tenons and half laps that would have just vibrated apart if the saw was not strong and smooth enough. You can see the mantel in the photos. I also agree with many reviewers that a better blade is a good investment if you want perfectly smooth and square cuts with greater ease. I did not upgrade the blade for my mantel but I will for my next project where I need perfect cuts on some bleached oak laminate.Speaking of power: I accidentally ordered the "corded" version instead of the battery version and now I'm glad I did. I'm not sure I could have cut my door successfully without that extra amp power.I haven't tried and angle cut with it yet so no comment on that.The 100" track is also square and true but I did NOT find I could cut reliably without clamping it. I also found it helped to wipe the under side grip of the track with a damp cloth before positioning it for each cut.There is one thing I don't like and why I give this Wen 4 stars instead of 5: between two full size and one mini shop vacs I have I could not find a combination of fittings for the sawdust port. It's amazing how much fine sawdust a tracksaw produces and not being able to draw it away from the cut and work area was a pain.

I recently purchased the **WEN 10-Inch Bandsaw** and couldn't be happier with its performance! This saw does everything the more expensive brands do, but at a fraction of the price. **Don't waste your money on a high-end brand when WEN delivers the same quality and functionality.**Assembly was straightforward, and the saw cuts smoothly and accurately right out of the box. The adjustable fence and miter gauge provide great precision, and the motor has plenty of power to handle a variety of materials. The dust port also helps keep my workspace cleaner than expected.For anyone looking for a **reliable, well-built, and affordable bandsaw**, this is the way to go. Highly recommended!

Using this saw to cut long shims from 2x4 lumber to level 100 year old joists/floor. So far, the saw is working great. Easy to line up the track and make precise cuts after adjusting for the blade width. Track stays in place when pushing the saw and the saw easily locks into track. Having done this same process in another room with a circular saw and wooden jig, I can say this is a great purchase.

I bought this track saw after seeing some youtube reviews saying it was a decent saw for the price and not wanting to spend several hundred or into the low thousands for a hobbyist woodworker. I wanted a track saw to break down larger sheet goods so I could get them onto the table saw for final dimensions and my existing circular saw simply wasn't capable of making accurate, square cuts. At the price, I did not have high expectations but was pleasantly surprised at how well this saw functioned and the quality of cuts it produced when making a cabinet-style frame for a closet organizer. I quickly was able to trust the accuracy and squareness of the saw for making final cuts on some of the side panels and the end-results was just as good as my cast-iron top table saw. I cut the panels on 1-1/2" foamboard, and had no tear out when cutting with or against the blade using the included stock blade. I have not tried to do any beveled cuts or use this on hardwoods. If you are like me and want an easy and accurate way to cut down large sheet goods, I would highly recommend this saw. I also recommend getting a dust collection hose that has some flexibility in sizing as my shop vac and other attachments did not quite fit the dust hose on the saw.
