## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great replacement part!
*by C***R on August 7, 2025*

Very well made. This was a direct replacement for my application and was half the price. Very happy : )

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great replacement switch
*by B***. on March 26, 2024*

Have a harbor freight 8 inch compound mitre saw made by Chicago Pneumatic the switch went belly up in under a year. Call harbor freight help line “ we don’t support that saw any more “. Did a bit of digging and found this replacement switch. Installed in about 5 minutes. But had to trim one of the tabs under handle for 100% fit. No big deal. Saw working again I ordered another just in case switch.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Check Your Wiring
*by J***M on April 15, 2024*

This switch works fine, but is NOT the correct switch for an older Harbor Freight compound sliding miter saw. You need the SW38D for full function. This switch works if you do not hook up the brake wires. I’m giving it a high rating because it is built well and functions fine.
