As for exchanging it, there are no more in stock. And it doesn't sound like they will be getting any more (at least according to the Amazon rep). I'm just guessing the real manufacturer of this saw also sells some tools under the Icon brand name and the manual ended up in there. Oddly enough I just checked the Icon manual and it doesn't even have any contact info in it! The packaging looked fine and factory sealed to me. As for exchanging it, there are no more in stock.

If there was the wrong manual in there, it may suggest that it's a saw that someone else returned. Know what I mean? How did the packaging look?

I tried calling the phone number you gave a couple of times but it never went through. I did go check the website and called one of the phone numbers listed but they said they do not make Denali saws. Does anyone else have some contact info?

I checked www.greatnecksaw.com and they don't list Denali as one of their brands, so there's a chance that Great Neck made the screwdrive but someoe else makes their miter saw. Worth checking though!

The manual included with the saw was NOT the manual for the saw! The manual included in the box was for a different model sliding saw made by Icon (not even Denali). So, does anyone have contact information for Denali who manufacturers the saw? I'd like to get a copy of the manual so I can set it up and start using it. Thanks in advance.

It's still showing that price this morning. I just got it for $40.97 w/ FS (cheapest yet) on Amazon yesterday. It’s still showing that price this morning.

It is all metal housing but it is fairly cheap metal. The motor is quite loud but it seems to cut fairly accurately. I have used it to cut some laminate flooring, 2x4 studs, and PT lumber and it does alright, if you put in the right blade. The 60T blade that came with it worked pretty well on the laminate, just turn the flooring so that it doesn't chip. Like most of the cheap tools, not something I would want to try and make a living using, but for DIY stuff, church outreach/mission projects and the like it is pretty good. I have this saw.

It almost looks like a dense plastic base with an aluminum table. I checked Amazon and it doesn't say what the base is made out of.
