Yes, mine is very good. I bought it last Septemberish and have
used it a fair bit (carpentry season doesn't start until Saturday
here ;). It's certainly not a Hitachi but well worth the money.
Note that I may have gotten a good one and there may be variation.
Two cow-orkers bought them, one likes his and the other complains
that the slider bearings are too tight or binding. Mine is quite
smooth though.
For $90 it's a steal (I paid $99.95 ;).
