I used washers under the bolts which hold the gauge plate in position and that helped greatly reduce how often I had to make that adjustment. The head tilt is a bigger pita to adjust, but once you get it positioned make certain it’s good and tight.

Bumbling forward into the unknown.
I don’t necessarily think they’re fake. I do think the people writing them have low expectations and just aren’t as discerning as the SMC crowd.
That’s not a dig, just an observation.
I've been looking for myself and have pretty much settled on this model. It's currently on sale for $329 at Lowes and features the front slide rails similar to the Festool Kapex for reduced space requirements. My old saw was a 12" which is also going into my decision as I have two Forrest Chopmaster blades. If I was starting out I'd probably go with a 10" dependent on what he's needing to cut but right now the 12" is quite a bit cheaper than the 10" Metabo.
