Well, I didn't like the TS360. The fence was a hassle to get to lock down parallel and the stand is thinner and not constructed as nicely as conractor saws from Jet for example.
If you're locked into HD then I guess it'll have to be Ridgid, but my Panasonic drill and impact driver were made in Japan and it shows in their finish and quality. I dropped the impact driver from head height and there wasn't even a scratch.
Really, if I had an HD coupon I wouldn't use it on tools. I don't think they even carry the Forrester TS blades. They might carry Freud and that would be almost as good. Personally, I'd use it for some attic insulation or some tile or something. I'm sure they carry makita, but are they as cheap as Amazon when you take into account the coupon and tax?
