Great blades will even cut bolts
Pros...Solid with very good quality. You get 2 blades that are course and cut quick. Variable speed is very nice. Very portable

I needed long blades to simplify some demolition and make my life easier. I had a couple of boards nailed together, and these blades allowed me to do the work more easily. They had no problem ripping through nails, and I was able to get the work done. I felt the price was better than the big box stores and more convenient. I like to support my local hardware store, but it was the weekend and I liked the price.

I’m really pleased with this saw and the stand. It does its job well, was easy to set up, and so far I’d have to say it’s well built. The stand is a bit thin, except at the mounting points and the clamp points, which are the important parts anyway. The blade has worked fine for mild steel, but I’ll soon replace it with a better blade. I agree with some other reviewers that it’s weird the power cable comes out where it does in the stand, but handheld, it makes sense, so the designers had to make a choice, which I assume they leaned on the handheld use case. I’d agree, since when mounted I can easily zip-tie it out of the way, but handheld and mobile it would be harder to manage from the other end. I like it, it was inexpensive, and it’ll do the home shop work I need it to.

First and foremost, the build quality is top-notch. Every component feels robust and well-crafted, ensuring durability and longevity. The blade tensioning system is incredibly intuitive, allowing for quick adjustments and ensuring optimal cutting results every time.

I purchased this Arbor press to bleed the air out of a new water pump. It worked perfectly. I love how this tool is made. It is hurky! Incredibly well made. I would highly recommend this for anyone who works on engines.

The HHIP 2-ton Arbor Press arrived in great shape. It was well packaged, and the press did not require any machining prior to using it. I am pressing bearing into a project I am working on, and the press has made the project very easy. For me, it was a great purchase, and I am satisfied with the Arbor Press.

Every shop, workshop, or tool shed should have one of these. So many different uses for it. It's heavy and really comes in handy for setting snaps, leather stamping, cutting with inserts, and a host of other uses not related to leather working. Really happy with this purchase

I totally love my shop press, it made wheel bearing and hub replacement so much smoother. I have one little problem, and I mean it’s a little one. If you could package the nuts and bolts all in a heavy duty ziplock bag and zip tie it to one of the major parts so it could better the odds of it making it to its destination. I received my package with a hole that was taped up, and I know it’s bulky and heavy. I received everything but the nuts and bolts didn’t make it. So I improvised and went to Home Depot and got what I needed. Hopefully you can read this and make it better for you next customer.

Easy to assemble, I used it for pressing my bearings in on the axle carrier and pinion, and transmission bushings. I haven't had any dislikes about its worked for what it is designed for. I can see if you're doing big jobs that require i bigger press, then get a bigger one. This is really for small jobs, that's my opinion, but it works great for what I use it for.

Ordered the afternoon of the 16th, delivered by noon on the 19th. Box was in-tacked and all pieces were within. Put it together in about 15mins and pressed out a ball joint in 30 seconds! Could not be any more happy!!
