Craftsman 21807

1. ICanFixUpMyHome.com

This detailed review, based on actual use, rates the Craftsman 21807 a 9 on a 10-point scale, noting that the built-in extensions make it simple to cut a sheet of plywood, and that the wheels on the base are a big plus for a small workshop. Other features also earn praise here, with the main drawbacks the non-standard miter slot and poorly written instructions.

This single-product review by an experienced remodeler recommends the Craftsman 21807 table saw for basic homeowner use and construction projects, but notes that the miter slot has too much play in it to make the saw good for furniture-making. The slot is also non-standard, so it doesn't accept aftermarket accessories. The dust bag still gets dust all over, but does eliminate the need for adding the noise of a shop vac.

Over 70 owners review the Craftsman 21807 contractor saw here, giving it mostly positive comments as a good value; over 80 percent say they'd recommend it to a friend. One owner provides detailed suggestions for adjusting the saw for accurate cuts, while another says his saw is just too far off. The main drawbacks are the non-standard miter slot, mediocre dust collection and maximum half-inch dado size.

This brief discussion points out that the arbor on the Craftsman 21807 limits the dado stack (which cuts a groove across a board) to half an inch, too small for many projects.
