Time is money and saves time!

Huge time saver when cutting panels. The first project quickly pays for itself. Just make sure you buy the right size that fits your siding.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • ill thought out

Works well - Carpenter's Square

Allows for quick cutting of long sidewalls. Much easier to mark and score straight lines. Professionals with their experience may not need this, but for the do-it-yourselfer it saves a lot of time.

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • Compatibility

worked great arrived so handy

tool arrived in time for moving into our house worked great so useful i know a few people who will be ordering one. This made it easier to work with the trim when measuring the window slots, and the slots allowed a knife to cut windows, doors, light boxes, etc. into the trim to keep them in place. Otherwise a great tool.

Pros
  • great product
Cons
  • something different

it worked great, was so handy that

the tool arrived at our house on time for living, it worked great, useful enough that I know several people who will be ordering one. This made it easier to work with the trim when measuring the window slots, and the slots allowed a knife to cut windows, doors, light boxes, etc. into the trim to keep them in place. Otherwise a great tool.

Pros
  • easy to read control panel
Cons
  • not reliable

Super quality but not as useful as expected

As a siding newbie this seemed like a good idea on paper. When I tested it I was able to make perfect marks on siding and straight cuts, but it takes twenty times longer than if you just learned how to do it like a pro and didn't use tricks like this. You might like it, but I'd argue that it's largely unnecessary and a waste of money. I'm happy to sell mine if anyone wants to buy it. In terms of quality and materials, it's a pretty good quality and will definitely exceed your desire to use it.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Disappearing
