Revainrating 4 out of 5

Ignore Table Saw Accessories

In short, they're better than the free pressure blocks that come with jointing or table saws (we all know those foam-bottomed plastic blocks that fall apart). after the first week), but I don't see any hype about it. Here are some observations: The handles that go down to hold the wood as I push it through the joint keep popping out causing me to lose my grip. An easy way to fix them would make a world of difference. It's also potentially dangerous. The padding on the bottom seems to be holding up well. Block size is convenient, easy to move 2x4 and x6 different lengths. Overall it's a good product but the "automatic heel retraction technology" is a pain as it automatically retracts midway through the incision/joint. I would have liked a detectable heel. I'm torn between 3 or 4 stars as it's such a big con.
