I've never used a spiral cut saw and was skeptical when I first saw an infomercial on TV. However, I was surprised that one of the big names (I can't remember who) in TV home or how-to shows admitted being impressed by the tool. I have used a trim router for more than just trimming laminates and would highly recommend one as an addition to any shop.

Be aware that the Rotozip is a router and as such will cut a relatively wide kerf. As I have no experience with S&G I don't know how this would limit its usefulness. If you buy one, please tell how it works out. Tom
