You definitely need to get one. This WEN is built like a tank. The Band Saw is quiet, powerful, and fast. Very impressed with the Band Saw. The WEN 3959 just an all-around great saw.

The fact is that the Skil 3386-01 Band Saw B009VJ3NNW was the Band Saws Under $250 that we rated at the top. Having said that, there were a handful of other truly premium quality Band Saws Under $250 we wanted to show you here that only just missed first place.

Next on our list is manufactured by WEN which is a very reputable tool manufacturer. WEN's Band Saws are one of their leading offerings. I was ready to try out the model 3959 and I was not let down!

This Band Saw is only $120.22. That is an exceptional deal for a quality Band Saw like the 3959 by WEN. If you unsure about our top selection, I'd consider the WEN 3959 next. It's a high quality tool at a terrific price.

In addition to the selections we already included, I would definitely evaluate the DCS371B by DEWALT and the Milwaukee Electric Tool 2429-21XC. Both these tool manufactures are regarded as two of the top suppliers of high quality Band Saws. both of these particular tools enjoy great user ratings as well. Customers gave the DCS371B an average rating of 4.7/5 stars. You can compare that to the Milwaukee Electric Tool 2429-21XC which boasts an average rating of 4.7/5 stars.

The DCS371B by DEWALT comes with a couple of features you wont experience on competing Band Saws. One example is 2-1/2" cut capacity cuts up to 2" SCH 40 pipe. The Milwaukee Electric Tool 2429-21XC by comparison, is very competitive with One-Handed Cuts: Most compact size and lightest weight of any cordless band saw; SFPM: 280 plus Powerful Motor: Cuts 3/4" EMT in 3 seconds, up to 150 cuts per charge with the XC battery; Blade Length: 27” x ½” x .020".

Both of these two selections make an outstanding option for someone whose shopping for Band Saws Under $250
