Default 18v circular saws - any good?

I saw that Challenge - quite an appealing price bundled with a drill I
don't need ;-) . I was told that a cheap mitre wouldn't be any good for
flooring unless it had extension arms, which pushes the price up? Any
suggestions as where to get a cheap one?


B&Q have got one for 35 quid, but it may have been an end of range. As
regards the extension arms you only need to support the workpiece, so
suitable sized offcuts of wood are fine.

I've not laid laminate flooring, so you'd have to check the saw will cope
with the width. They do sliding ones which definitely would, but they're
over 100 quid.
