Review: cant ask for more especially for the price. - i had just recently gotten a mill an lathe to learn with an the fist big leason i learned was cutting steel with a hack saw is a pain in the ass so i got online an found horizontal bandsaw looked like the best option for what im working with but the prices was more than i was willing to pay then i stumbled across the wen bandsaw which was the same brand as the mill i recently gotten an from my experience i had with the mill i figured id take a chance on the saw an for it to be so much cheaper than other saws with the same cut capacity i was alittle worried what i would end up with but after getting it an using it to cut a few old hitches i had, 1.25" square it cut through in less than a might an i tried to use it to cut through a head off a 2.2liter gm motor so it was aluminum but it was able to get half way through on both sides leaving about an inch in the middle for me to finish getting through with the hack saw so its able to cut more than i expected so im very happy with it. i read alot of comments in the reviews saying the blade that it comes with isn't the best but with the little use i have on it now it doesnt look to have any wear or show signs of dulling so keep that in mind if u do pick this up, u might want to invest into blades from a different brands but as of right now im extremely happy even if the blade it came with is crap in the long run, its going to save me so much energy an time its well worth the money, only wish i could buy a base that would let me use it like a miter saw. oh an it is alittle heavy but thats not really a bad thing in my opinion but others did complain about it so if u work with it daily an make a living doing so then theres probably better options, this is the only tool like this ive ever owned or gotten to use so i dont know what the standards are to make it something that u would want to use while making a living so a few things i notices that would probably be expect for one that u would want to use daily but it does have a speed control 1 to 6 each number having a click as u come to it and theres also a light that can be turned on an off by a switch which i didnt notice at first an was glad to see once i found it but was surprised it wasn't just tied into the trigger but again i dont use something like this daily so that might be nice to have when working with alot but the down side to what i seen was very minimum adjustments for the belt or at least where i expected it to be, but if something happens an the blade doesnt run straight an true causing it to walk off the wheels i dont see any way of being able to adjust that, that might not be something they come with an the geometry of the tool might be all thats required to keep the blade running straight but i assumed there would be something that would let u adjust that if it was an issue. i had no issue with getting the blade on an tightened an it ran straight without issue so that may be something i was expecting when its not really a thing but that is the only down side i could find in the short time ive used it that might cause someone to not to want to buy this but if your someone who is just buying one to use around the house or for a hobby its perfect especially for the price its hard to beat. over time if anything drastic happens with it, i'll come back and update the review an hopefully i'll have some pictures to show but as of now, its one of my new favorite tools. working on a miter base for it now an if i cna manage to make something that works an is easy to recreate i'll try to share that as well cause that is one thing i wish i could find for it is a miter base but so far what ive found is more expensive than the next one up from this one that comes with a base so id just buy that an have 2 saws and a base for less than buying one of the bases i have seen for sell so hopefully i can pull off something that others can manage too.
Review: Makes cutting stainless steel rods a breeze! - I was in need of a band saw for cutting metal rods and didn't have the room for a large band saw in my limited space garage. I saw this on desertcart and know that Wen is a decent company. $99 was a good price and within my budget. All you have to do is take it out of box, install the blade, tighten the 2 bolts and you're good to go. Made easy cutting of the stainless steel rods. I do like that it has adjustable speeds. My only gripe is it's rather loud and I needed to wear ear plugs. But all in all great deal, quality product and ease of use. I'm a satisfied customer. Definitely recommend!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this come with a case?**
A: No; just the cardboard box.

**Q: Does this come with a case?**
A: This did not come with a case.

**Q: Where’s the power cord**
A: The power cord comes out of the handle. This is a nice saw for the money.

**Q: In the photos it shows 3 screw holes for a stand. Mine doesn't have those pre-tapped holes, I was banking on using the 3 tapped holes for a stand.**
A: so i made a table for mine as well. what i did was take off the band saw's guide plate. i think fab'ed my own up onto the table. drilled and counter sunk the screws and went to the hardware store and bought longer screws. i found that it works but it was a little heavy so i also made a base for it to sit on when i put it into the table. its not ideal but its what i did. over all im happy with the band saw it hasn't let me down yet

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great saw for the DIY. A real time saver.
*by T***R on December 17, 2025*

I was in construction for over 40 years and have used portable band saws to many times to count. Probably thousands of times. The saw is well made. A little heavy but at 73, a lot of things are heavy now. I like having two speeds. I use the slower speed for more precise cuts and the faster setting to get the job done. If you don't already know, when you are through using the saw, be sure to take the tension off the blade. Doing this will prolong the life of the blade and saw. At my age, I'll probably never need to buy another saw. Will it last on a construction site? Probably not. You probably know what I mean. But for around the house or small shop, it's a winner. I would recommend this saw to friends and family.
