Quality for a very reasonable price. Accuracy was very good. I added the wen stand and fabbed a cart for it so I could move it around my shop. Also add a extension on the fence.

Great Saw For The Price
Rating: 5
I have been in the market for a metal band saw for quite some time but any saw that I thought would fit my needs was way over priced for hobby needs, a few cuts a month at the most unless I was working on a big project it would be sitting under a table for the most part. While googling metal band saws I came across this! I started to research metal band saws and this one seemed the best fit as it has the largest mouth in it's class and the most features of them all, also made entirely of metal except the motor housing it is sturdy plastic but mounting base all metal very solid! Also cuts like a champ on solid 3" cold rolled steel eats it up like nothing, as good as My DoAll at work( I am a Professional Machinist I have my own machines at home I build things my in spare time) Not allowed to use company saws for personal use..... Bottom line if you are in the market for a portable Metal Band Saw look no further!!! This saw also has a very nice feature, soft start saves the motor and variable speed . Just a nice saw for the price and if you have ship to store pick-up you save even more on the price.$$$

Way better than expected!
Rating: 5
Didn't think the saw would perform as excellently as it did right out of the box. Set up was only about 20 mins. Cut through 1.5 x 2 inch aluminum blocks with no trouble at all . Brass round stock just as easy. As recommended in the manual, did NOT use cutting fluid or oil to cool, and fed the blade through the work pieces with only light hand pressure, not trying to rush it. Cuts straight and clean, and is quiet (unlike my chop saw ;-). The machine is well-built and hefty, yet manageable to move around the garage. The only issue I have with it is that the "run" trigger cannot be locked on and requires a little bit of finger force to hold 'er down through the entire duration of the cut (up to several minutes).

Well built band saw
Rating: 5
So far very pleased with the WEN 3975. The high quality variable speed motor with metal gears are the same setup found on saws costing twice as much or more but only time will tell for the rest of the saw.

Verticle skew
Rating: 2
I could not get the saw to cut straight down. No matter what the blade tension was used, the verticle cut woold driift outward yielding in an angled cut.
