Just looking for some opinions. Looking at purchasing either
Metabo KGS216 M - http://www.toolstop.co.uk/metabo-kgs216m-laser-slide-compound-mitre-saw-240v-p14637
or
Evolution RAGE3 FP2552 - http://www.screwfix.com/p/evolution-rage3-fp2552-255mm-compound-mitre-saw-230v/26612
Forgetting the obvious difference in blade size between the two, I am comparing these two as they are close in price. I will be using it firstly for laying a lot of laminate flooring and for putting alot of skirting in 3 bed house. After that, future plans are to build a fence and possibly do some decking further down the line.
I was going to go with Metabo but wasn't sure about going for the KGS254. Then I saw the evo, which is 255mm blade and I am now unsure! I could get the Metabo KGS254 but it is pushing the budget alot. Is it worth it? I also noticed the Metabo comes with 40 tooth blade where as the evo is a 26 tooth blade. A precise cut is I would say important for doing skirting to get great finish, So right now I am swinging with the Metabo range.
Does anyone have experience with either models and can give some honest feedback?
Thanks!
