HF Cut off saw ???'s

[Buckon37s]

Anyboy here bought one of these? It is on sale for $59 so I took it home. But, it seems to "walk" and not make a straight cut. It sounds like crap too. Do they all do that or do I have a bummed model?

They are crap. Take it back and get the Industrial model ($99 on sale) it works much better and cuts way faster.

I have the industrial one and it works good.. this is my only hf tool.. I really dislike hf tools. but for the price on this it was worth it.. I picked it up for 60 bucks a while ago while it was on sale..

I bought the 14". Is the Industrial different? Cuts fairly fast, just not straight.

I bought the cheap on on sale ~$40-50, I used it a few times, but it sucks, won't cut square. I got the bandsaw and am much happier, it cut square, is quiet, and cuts while I'm doing something else.

The Industrial (Just looked but didn't see it on the site) one was black, the cheap one was orange/grey. The industrial one was built much stronger with a larger motor and heavy arm with a much larger spring. It also cuts strait. I don't know why they don't have it on the HF website now but they had it in the store the last time I was at one.
