    am i missing something but its the same? just 200 less Watt? https://www.bunnings.com.au/ozito-1800w-210mm-8-1-4-double-b…

      Very similar I guess however that only has a 3 year warranty & smaller cutting width as mentioned below by leeroys_dad.

      • yellowfever on 15/02/2024 - 09:20

        I would buy the Bunnings Ozito one over buying a power tool at Aldi. Warranty/replacement/exchange/refund at Bunnings is far easier than Aldi.

          I had a thermomix knock off from aldi that died after about a year. Took it in without a receipt and got a refund (showing the amount from bank transaction).
          One of their 20v batteries died, took it in and got a replacement delivered to store in 4 days.
          I think their refund/replacement is top tier.

          • Fudgie the whale on 16/02/2024 - 11:16

            @Pud3000: You can get the money back no worries, the issue with tools is, it's implied you'll still want the tool if it breaks, and they won't be able to replace it, only refund it.

        • Salmando on 03/03/2024 - 14:28

          The ozito brand has been absolutely terrible for me. I'd take a gamble on any other brand over ozito.

    • RichardL on 14/02/2024 - 13:11

      Bunnings most likely price-matched with their equivalent brand.

      EDIT: Normally $199 as per Price Hipster

    5 year warranty for $149 - hard to say no

    • dufflover on 14/02/2024 - 14:04

      In my experience though there's a risk they won't do a warranty replacement/repair and instead force you take it back for a refund. And sometimes needing a working saw is more important than the refund.

      • Jimothy Wongingtons on 14/02/2024 - 14:06

        maybe the ozito might be the go then in the other deal with the bunnings offering

          I love Aldi stuff and the competition they bring for things like the Bunnings equiv ptice matches but for some things, like key power tools, I'd rather get Bunnings. Been burnt on two occassions. Aldi are fine, the Action Spares support not so much…

          Or, it has to be at a heavy clearance price that some Aldi's are good for.

          Ironically in the context of this deal, I say this as someone who uses the Workzone cordless version of this saw lol

        Same experience. But I’ve since worked out: return for a refund when it breaks, then get Ozito from Bunnings. The price of the Ozito isn’t gonna be matching the refund, but it’s like you paid rent for a tool that was exclusive for your own use. Of course this only works if you have a Bunnings close by.

        instead force you take it back for a refund.

        i always saw that as an advantage. better than being stuck with a POS saw

  • MrSaladSpinner on 14/02/2024 - 13:27

    Would this be ok to cut aluminium with?
    I have a deck on order and will need to trim some of the aluminium subframe before putting it screwing it together.

    • Calvinlsyd on 14/02/2024 - 13:33

      you just need the right blade installed. the one comes with it could be basic and wood only

    • Jimothy Wongingtons on 14/02/2024 - 13:39
      +1

      i dont see why not with the right blade, i used to cut ally extrusions of 17x15mm (hollow) with a crappier no name mitre saw.

    • c64 on 14/02/2024 - 13:43

      depends on how thick. i've used to a regular table saw to cut an aluminium sheet

    • billadm on 14/02/2024 - 15:50

      Would this be ok to cut aluminium with?

      I never tried but I assume the mitre saw head would have more vibrations.
      You could try (it's risky) by adding extra clamps and replace the cutting disc with one specific for aluminium that has as many as possible teeth for a smooth operation.

    • DarwinBoy on 14/02/2024 - 16:02

      Metal builds up more within the guards then wood. All those sparks build up and form a rock hard slag that builds up quickly.
      So Id be pedantic with cleaning if cutting metal with this.

    • apsilon on 14/02/2024 - 16:35

      It's generally fine to cut aluminium with wood working tools. It'll obviously blunt the blade quicker but the bigger issue, all these low end saws come with low tooth count blades and are designed for rip cuts, something a mitre saw is never used for or can be used for, but I'd be surprised if it doesn't come with a rip cut blade anyway (unfortunately the ad provides no information). Point is, you may need to invest in a higher tooth count cross cut blade. Blade will cost around the $60 mark give or take depending on brand/quality.

    • marko62 on 15/02/2024 - 05:58

      As others have said with an aluminium blade. I used a 10" Ozito saw to cut 70 x 22 fly door to make about 20 shade cloth panels for the shaded area along the side of the house.

    • c64 on 15/02/2024 - 20:48

      Would this be ok to cut aluminium with?

      this guy in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uEwC0QtZIMs had no problems cutting through his top guard rail after he forgot to take it off before a bevel cut

  • c64 on 14/02/2024 - 13:47

    does it do bevel cuts? it is not clear

    pity they don't sell a bigger 10" one (i think they used to at one stage)

    • mauricem on 14/02/2024 - 14:30

      Be very surprised if it didn't. It's a standard feature in all mitre saws I've ever seen.

      • c64 on 15/02/2024 - 08:59

        i can see the guard rail is sloped on either side near the centre so i'm guessing it does double bevel, but they should state stuff like that in the description

        • mauricem on 15/02/2024 - 09:52

          They should but a cursory search of the model number shows

          "Specification:
          45° cutting capacity: 240x65 mm
          90° cutting capacity: 340x65 mm"

          Not sure about double bevel but I'd try and track down the user manual to be sure of the specs. Either that or just buy it and return if not suited.

  • TheOtherLeft on 14/02/2024 - 14:40

    What is the difference between this and metal drop saw? Is it only the blade type or power of the motor?

    I want to be able to cut metal tubes, small diameter pipes etc, nothing crazy.

    • billadm on 14/02/2024 - 15:53

      You need the right clamps that hold still the material and minimise the vibrations.
      The sliding mitre saw's head also has more vibrations compared to a traditional cutting saw.

    • Duff5000 on 14/02/2024 - 16:01

      One of these is made for that sort of work:

      https://www.bunnings.com.au/ozito-2300w-356mm-corded-metal-c…

      If its just the occasional thing personally i just use a reciprocating saw with a metal cutting blade. Depends on how accurate you need to be.

      • DarwinBoy on 14/02/2024 - 16:04

        I picked one of these up for $20 off market place and it has been amazing value for me.
        Only used it a few times but it does the job.
        Even scored another 2 blades for $5 each the other day so good for a few more projects.

    I got one of these last time. It's still a budget offering yeah, doesn't seem super precise with angles and stuff, light construction but it's solid enough. Useful for basic tasks. Seems better than the Bunnings offering when I looked at that one in store.

      • c64 on 17/02/2024 - 17:18

        first thing i want to do, while i still return it, is to try to loosen the blade nut. apparently they are on pretty tight out of the factory

    Does anyone know how wide the saw stand is on full extension ? Of course they dont put that in the detail.

  • mickeyjuiceman on 19/02/2024 - 09:35

    Anyone in Ballarat looking for these, the one in town has both, and Sebas has the saw.

    Thanks OP, bought one. Tested it this morning. Stock saw blade is crap. I put on a higher quality Dewalt 60t carbide blade (took it off my circular saw). Cuts much better now. Motor is powerful doesn't bog down with hardwoods and it cuts pine boards like butter. Accuracy is ok, but not as accurate as a high quality saw. I bought it assuming it would be used more for rough cuts anyway, and it more than meets that expectation. Its lightweight, but doesn't feel overly cheap. Perfect for DIYers. I'm content so far with my purchase.

    • c64 on 19/02/2024 - 10:45

      how hard was it to undo the blade bolt? apparently they are on tight. i believe it is also (reverse) LH thread

      • jaybees on 19/02/2024 - 15:39

        This video was helpful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nIaY4NeGoPE. The guy had to use a hammer to loosen his bolt. I used a t-handle hex wrench with much grunt (but I did allow the WD40 a few minutes to soak in). Hope this helps.

        • c64 on 23/02/2024 - 12:36

          thanks. it turned out to be much easier than i was expecting. i loosened the screw and bolt as per the video to get access to the blade bolt. i decided to give it a trial using a bicycle allen key tool thingy and the blade bolt loosen without much effort.
