Got a "Dualsaw"? What's your opinion?

[djjsr]

I'm looking for opinions on the various brands of "dualsaws". I've wanted one of these things for a while and now that there's several clones on the market, I'm ready to buy one but want to find the best value and avoid the brands that are problems.

If you have one, what brand is it? Does it work well? Would you buy the same brand again?

For me, this will be an occasional use tool.


Thanks.

Don

I had a Craftsman. I found that I used it very little. It did cut through steel like butter with no kickback but it was insanely loud. Also, the motor would get hot on a longer cut. I tried it on wood and it was worthless. It probably wasn't designed for that though. For a quick cut through metal it's great but so is a sawzall or a cutoff wheel. I sold it for $50 because I didn't foresee using it much.
