I was impressed enough to buy one for myself, as it is not something I will use every day and I feel The bang for the buck is pretty high.
Now I will confess that I have a number of Grizzly tools and am happy with them. I do not have any high end tools. Just so you know where I am coming from.
If you have not gotten used to using a higher quality saw I bet you will be happy with the HF miter saw, unless you are unlucky enough to get one that burns up just after the short warranty runs out!
A Kia is not a Mercedes but both will get you to the supermarket just fine...
