The cutting depth is easy to adjust, the power is kicks out is more than enough to get some great results and in all - it did an awesome job. The D handle gives a good, steady grip, it's compact and fairly lightweight - remember hand and power tools always seem to feel heavier the lower to the ground you're working - and the carry case is rugged and good quality. I'd put this one up to industry standard - great for professionals in the flooring trade.
