Parkside Circular Saw at Lidl

Post by Argyll »

I saw this today at my local Lidl and wondered if any of you have one already and what you think about it? It's a really handy size and really light:

I couldn't believe how light it was Stevie. I have an old Dewalt one and it weighs a ton.

You'll probably be plesantly surprised. Whilst LiDL stuff is hardly trade quality, everything I've had from them to date has proven to be exceptional value for money and reasonably durable

I particularly like the depth gauges of these saws. I had to make some half lap joints on the hoof and it was done in no time.
