Shop Fox W1837

[Martin Winkelbauer]

Hello, I'm interested in the Shop Fox W1837, but it seems, that there are no reviews available right now. Does anybody here own this saw and is willing to post his honest opinion? Any other suggestions?

I'm a novice woodworker and am thankful for any advice.

Thanks in advance!

You might want to look for the "green" Grizzly equivalent and see if there are any reviews.... ;)

You can call Grizzly industrial and ask them. They know which models are the same. 800 523 4777

According to Grizzly Tech Support, equivalents are G0771 and G0715P.

According to Grizzly Tech Support, equivalents are G0771 and G0715P.

The G0771 and the G0715P have different internals, so I am not sure how they can both be equivalents... That said, I just looked at the W1837 and it is a rebranded G0771, with stamped wings instead of cast iron, and obviously a different lower cabinet design. I have the G0771 and have had no issues, the fence is a little wonky, but other than that, great saw. I would get the G0771 over the shop fox version for the cast iron extension wings alone.
