Review on πŸ”§ DEWALT DW890 Swivel Gauge Shear by James Wiley

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Blades not sharpened properly

The tool was a bit difficult to install on a flat piece of 22 gauge mild steel. When I positioned it correctly, it cut very well. Upon inspection, I found that one of the blades was not properly sharpened, causing the tool not to sit flat. I called DeWalt support and they confirmed that the blade wasn't sharpened properly. I'm returning the tool and Revain is replacing it, the only problem is the 3 week lead time, hopefully things will get better and I'll give maybe 4 or 5 stars for an update next time.

Pros
  • Powerful 5.0 amp motor, all ball bearings for long life
Cons
  • Long delivery time
