Update after lots of use:
I love this saw. Been doing great with max depth cuts on walnut even. Go slow and treat it like a smaller saw. The first blade change took a minute to sort out the balance between tension and tracking, but its easy now. Once you get the hang of it, it shouldn't be a problem. The fence has been working well too, have not had any issues with stability or slipping. Very happy I picked this up.
Edit: tried again today after I cooled down. What do you know!? The tension knob broke off! Returning it today

I mostly make a variety of small projects that require precision, but not horsepower (mostly hand planes, tools, and boxes). A small kerf blade power tool is very useful for me, but I'm not a heavy-duty user. I figured this saw could definitely handle the light duty projects I usually need such a tool for.
From the very beginning the blade turned in toward the fence. Bought two new quality blades, one for curves (Olsen 10tpi), one specifically for resawing (Timberwolf 4tpi). Changing blades is a nightmare--there is no indication of correct tension, and the guide bearings are nearly impossible to adjust without being a contortionist or taking the table off the saw.
Turned to the internet for advice and learned how to adjust all of the tension knobs and guide bearings and tracking effectively on a band saw. (Meanwhile the window for returns firmly closed.) Figured I was golden now. WRONG.
Each new blade performed flawlessly for about 2-4 cuts, then began to dive toward the fence again. Every. Time. It's like there are gremlins that mess up all the settings after every use. This machine simply will not stay calibrated.
So now I'm $350 short with a big piece of useless junk cluttering up my shop and reminding me both of my ruined projects and the old axiom, "Buy nice or buy twice."
Learn from the mistakes others like me have made by being lured in with a shiny low-cost price tag and good reviews from folks who may not have owned or used it enough to have encountered problems yet. Save your pennies for a quality machine that will work every time you use it!
This is NOT that machine.

Installed onto the workbench and it's now perfect.
The saw blade out of the box was a surprise bonus but it's not great
I had purchased a better but will continue to run tests on the bandsaw performance
Great hobby tool for the price and loads of fun !!!!
Actualización: es de agradecerse el hecho de incluir iluminación para el área de trabajo, pero la posición en la cual la colocaron y la longitud en la que puede extenderse la lámpara genera sombras en las líneas marcadas a cortar, para poder colocarla en la posición ideal se forza demasiado la funda del cable además que la luz es sumamente brillante y se refleja en la superficie de la mesa generando que cuando estás un rato cortando termines "lampareado", en mi caso tengo que colocar una lámpara por la parte frontal para evitar sombras y no lastimarme la vista y no utilizo la que viene en la sierra

I purchased it to resaw softwood and hardwood lumber.
I have resawn 6" hardwoods with the supplied blade (3/8" x 4TPI?)
I was using the low speed, you can't jam it through, but it does a nice cut!
I will switch to a 1/2" x 3TPI soon.
It cuts accurately with the 3/8" blade.
The light is handy as well as the dust collection system.
The price is awesome! I bought this saw because of the price, but also because it is well reviewed online.
I am happy with it so far, would certainly recommend it if you're on a budget like me.
For my use, which is mostly cutting blanks into circles for wood turning, this works well. I have a couple of different blades, and it is a good idea to change off the stock blade for something a little better. It is a bit slow, but far faster than my CT entry level saw.
For resawing, this lacks the power you will find in a larger machine. If you intend on resawing, I would suggest going to a 1 HP+ machine, and best to get that at a physical store, in case there are any issues.
