Clamp Miter Box - 20-800  Product Reviews

"I needed something just a bit more useful than my old wooden miter box, so I got this at my hardware store. I am a single woman with an old house and just the occasional project. I'm moderately handy, but this tacky tool just frustrated me to tears. 1) I don't know for whom it is "ergonomically" designed, but its handle is cocked at an awkward angle and made my hand ache almost immediately. Trying to create eight cuts for a picture frame is a terrible struggle. 2) I have used it for three (very small!) projects with soft wood moldings and the blade is already dull. I cannot replace it anywhere -- there just simply aren't spare blades. 3. It is almost impossible to adjust off a simple 45 degree angle-- the cheap plastic base won't hold true. I ruined a picture frame trying to hack through it with this dull awkward tool. I'm saving my pennies now for a powered miter saw."

"I found the fence too low and had to do some improvising. Otherwise, nice tool for the price."

"Although Amazon promptly sent it off with free shipping and I was very excited to use this bad boy, it is simply not worth it. A very important piece of plastic(?)was broken right out of the box making the unit utterly useless. It simply has too many plastic pieces and is not built well enough."

"I have been using this saw primarily for cutting quarter round after installing a hardwood floor. The saw works great and the cuts are very accurate. Unfortunately, I also used it to make some cuts on some old subflooring that had floor leveling compound on it. The box said that the blade was replaceable, so I didn't think there would be a problem finding one. Now the blade is very dull and I can't find a replacement blade anywhere, so far, not even online."
