I recently used a handheld circular saw and found it much easier to use

I'll probably get a mains one, especially since I always find that my
rechargable tools have run down when I want to use them. Can anyone
recommend one? I'll be using it for general d-i-y, including cutting
laminate flooring (presumably I need a fine-toothed blade for that).

Yes indeed, if they are still as bad as the one I got about 5 years ago,
then not at all nice, downright nasty and dangerous in fact.

The Argos Challenge one I got in a set with a diabolically poor pendulum
jigsaw for £25 is fine though.

Nasty and dangerous? Why? Maybe I've missed something on mine

The safety guard catches and won't retract easily.
