All I can say is I had always bought Aldi's own brands like Tevion and
Medion until the quality recently started to nosedive. I must admit to
having 2nd thoughts (and 3rd and 4th) before buying now after taking back
three quarters of the stuff I have bought there in the past 18 months. Their
discs cdr and dvd+rw are not good now. I think they must have a different
supplier with lower quality.

Which cheap circular saw? Going to need it about 6 times over next 2
weeks, then probably twice a year max after that.

W/C 22nd Sept, Aldi are doing a Power Craft circular saw with laser guide
for £24.99
http://www.aldi.co.uk/special_buys/product_381.html

Or there's this "re-engineered" one from Langwells for £15.99:

The cheapest "proper" one I can find is £22.33+P&P from Hunter Tools
http://www.huntertools.co.uk/index.p... ucts_id=2226

Or a cordless one for £19.97 from Maplin
http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?...5734&T=368 89

The Aldi one has a 3 year guarantee, which is what caught my attention.
I mean, the amusingly named B&Q "Performance" saw is £19.97 with one year
warranty, and in my experience, performance stuff seems to last until they
come across anything tougher than damp kitchen paper.

So, anything against the Aldi one?
