Grizzly G0514X2 19" Extreme Bandsaw-3HP, Single Phase Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I will rate the mobile base then the saw.
I agree with other reviews about the mobile base. It is a wonderful mobile base and can provide great results if it was the right size! It is too small. Other reviews describe how only one bolt can go on one side and they are correct. I used to think that reviews like that were made up but in this case they are right on. I can't believe that this issue is not fixed by anyone. Grizzly or Amazon. The mobile base is too small and you can't open the bottom door of the saw either, maybe it is because of how I have it rotated on the base. It won't work anyway you rotate the saw. I tried everything. This is very difficult with a heavy piece of equipment. PLEASE DO NOT BUY THE MOBILE BASE THAT IS SUGGESTED.

The saw: This is a very nice saw. The table top is huge and beautiful. The table has a rack and pinnion adjustment! The 3hp motor is the real deal and provides plenty of power. I like just about everything about the saw- honestly. The saws 2 - 4 inch dust ports are great and work great with my 6inchx 4inch x 4inch connection. (peachtree woodworking)
My one real gripe about the saw is the power switch. I think it is so cheap, granted mine was damaged in shipping. The saw you get has a key to the switch. It looks like something on one of my son's toys. Extremely cheap looking. My switch plate was bent. I called the company and they would gladly send me another one. I was just calling to report it. I hammered the plate flat and you couldn't even tell it was once bent.(Note: the picture is wrong. It comes with a key and a bump stop button.) I rewired the saw to skip the key as it was defective. The wiring was simple as you just skip the key and either connect the wires or skip it, which is what I did. The saw is great! The mobile base is great, but the wrong size, and the new switch with the cheesy key it of such poor quality.I love the grizzly bear cut outs on the cast iron drive wheels.
