I was impressed by;
1) The way the way the saw and its parts were packaged for shipping.
2) The overall quality of the saw and its parts.
I was not impressed by;
1) The instruction manual was weak to say the least.
2) The polycarbonate center section is warped and rises above the cast iron table top.
I have not yet used the saw, but will know more once I do. Iām looking forward to a pleasant experience.
Fantastic
My experience with the saw has been all positive so far. It was shipped and packaged in great condition. The assembly was straightforward. The machine appears to be very well-made, and I anticipate it lasting for many many years. The customer service is also wonderful.
Great price great value awesome saw
Iāve only been using this saw for a couple weeks, Iām super impressed with the overall accuracy and power. Been ripping 8 quarter hard maple and it cuts like butter with absolutely zero slow down and acts like you are feeding balsa wood. Square out of the box and minimal time to set up and dial in. I made the right choice for sure. Spent months researching prior to pulling the trigger and could not be happier!
What an absolutely beautiful beast of a machine! From my first cut to my 1000 cut, it has performed flawlessly! I couldnāt be happier with my Harvey 110Alpha!
My old saw was a 50 year old Delta/Rockwell contractor saw so this is quite an upgrade for me. Love the finish, weight, cabinet, dust extraction, fence, and miter gauge. It would be better if the table insert fit better. I added several layers of tape to the edges to get it where it didn't slide from side to side. I'm also disappointed that it is not a zero clearance insert and that the zero clearance insert that Harvey sells extra does not have a feature to replace the actual cut zone of the insert. Other than the insert I am completely happy with this saw and highly recommend it.
I careful read all the reviews a couple of times and was surprised that a couple got rid of their powermatic and unisaw. The 2 considered the 4hp as at least a equal or better. I've not had those other 2 brands and can't comment on them.
Ive been a cabinet maker for 30 to 40 years and bought a 2hp and a 5hp Grizzly table saw 30 years ago. The 2hp has held up fine with no issues. The 5hp the bearing have gone out once and are going out again. My one issue is I can not get the 5hp to cut a perfect zero. So I'd have to say...both were good machines to last this long. The 5hp G will be my back up saw.
I'm actually retired but got a job restoring 36 Windows and doors in a house built in 1899. I had a portable saw that I'd use from time to time when I had my other two saws set up for particular cuts....it went out and I was looking for another saw for back up. Being the fact that I'm use to having more powerful saws...i just could not find anything for 1,000.00 that I could get excited about. I was highly considering buying another grizzly when I stumbled across Harvey. I went back and forth trying to decide which one to buy...much like you're doing right now;) I went back and forth looking at their 2hp, 3hp, and the 4hp. I noticed that the 4hp was larger and weighted more. I could not figure out why one more up cost 300.00 more so...i called Harvey and asked. I then realized it was a better machine. The money was about the same between the 4hp Harvey and the 5hp Grizzly and reading the reviews I felt Harvey was a better machine. I've now had it for a week and I am pleased I decided to go with the 4hp Harvey. It's certainly bigger, heavier, and controls are smoother than the G! I never had a blade guard with a vacuum and don't really like the guard but do like the vacuum. Sometimes I need to be able to set the fence off of my mark on the wood. I see that the shark guard is a improvement and what I think would be best for me. I wish I could have swapped this out when i bought. Not excited about spending another 800.00 right now but probably will.
The fence is rock solid but moves a little when you clamp it down. I've actually not applied the tape on the saw and it'll probably take care of that. Again...id like to have the better fence but it was not available when I bought. Not sure I'll spend another 1,000.00 on it. Maybe some day both of those improvements will be standard.
I'm considering the sliding side table. I did have this on my 2hp saw I just used for a cut off saw. I think the Harvey is much better and will most likely up grade from the old Grizzly I have.
Bottom line is...high quality is there on my new 4hp saw and happy i bought it. all their products look good and will buy more as I can afford it.
The saw is very impressive, the dust collection is great, and the fence is assume. The only issue I have is that the table inserts are not really snug in the table.
This saw is basicity everything I would hope for. The quality is top notch.
The only con I have found in the few weeks I have been using it is that the fence does not have a fine adjustment.

@riddickulous_woodworks
Got these two monsters delivered today from @harveywoodworking . Only had time to unbox and move into the corner, but I can't wait till I start putting everything together and get to making some sawdust.
@riddickulous_woodworks
The @harveywoodworking Alpha HW110S-36P table saw is ready to go. Just waiting on an extension cord delivery from Amazon and we can start making some sawdust. Super excited to finally have the machines and electrical all set up.
@johnson_woodwork
Thank you @harveywoodworking for correcting my order and sending me the missing miter gauge. In all transparency to those that have been following, it was difficult getting a response from you, but once I did, I had great service from Rayson. Thanks for going above and beyond to make things right. This saw was easy to assemble, well packaged, and Iām finally to the point where I can start putting some miles on it. Due to a lack of time on my part, I havenāt had a chance to run any stock through, but if it operates like it looks to be built, than it should be a solid machine well worth the money.
@Retired Firefighter (Rich)
After a lot of research and comparing table saws I decided to purchase a from Harvey in the fall of 2020. With all of the pandemic issues it took awhile to ship cross country to my home by Harveyās customer service was there all along keeping me updated. Flash forward to a week ago. My saw would not run. A call to Harvey and I was talking with Danny after only a couple rings of the phone. I describe what was happening and he confirmed my suspicion that the switch had gone bad. This was late on a Friday afternoon west coast time and Danny said they would get a new switch out to me right away. Monday rolled around and I got a call from customer service letting me know the switch shipped. That call was followed up by emails and a text message. The switch arrived a day ahead of schedule and I installed it a couple days later due to other time commitments. It fixed the problem. In my opinion, customer service is top notch at Harvey.
@Tr Stull
Have finally gotten the saw set up and running! Everything suggests I made a great choice. Greatly appreciated the quick response to questions and for replacement parts that were thought to have been lost in shipment. Got the second set of fence rails about the time the original ones showed up! Thank you for the great service!
@Thomas Dugar
First and foremost, Samantha was awesome to work with. She actually answered the phone when i called! Product knowledgeable and professional all the way. She even helped me with an upgrade on the saw i ordered and it was shipped right away. Very satisfied with my experience and plan on posting an unboxing and assembly video to make others aware of how high the quality is of Harvey tools.
@Samuel Hall
Harvey is top notch! They will call you back and send a follow up email to verify! I got my saw at an amazing price for what I got! Harvey is worth the money and they are definitely going to be seeing more mineš dont worry if you are thinking about buying, do it and be patient! More than likely they already made a piece of equipment you already own in your shop now!
@Mark Ratliff
Called because I thought my table saw was missing some bolts. Customer Service answered on first ring (by a human), and was extremely helpful. Never questioned that I didn't receive parts, just verified what I was missing, walked through everything to insure I had everything else needed to assemble the saw and said the missing parts would be shipped first thing in the morning. EXCELLENT SERVICE! Had to call back when I found said parts and we had a good laugh. Outstanding! I believe the service persons name was Hung Nguyen. He was Great and I will do more business with Harvey Industries because of this level of service, and the tool is great as well.
@shawn stockford
I am so glad that I stumbled across Harvey Woodworking in my search for a cabinet table saw. I love the saw and the price/value. Amazing people to work with, however, be patient as they are building the business and growing faster than imagined. They will call you back, answer your email, and be able to answer all of your questions.
@Thomas dugar
If the saw performance is as good as the support staff, I will be very happy š. I have heard all good things about this company so I am eager to receive and start using this equipment!
@Andy Head
Bought a 4HP Alpha Table Saw from Harvey back in November. Very happy thus far. I had a few technical questions before buying, and a gentleman (first name Hung) gave me a call back with the answers. Mr. Rayson assisted me with the order. Both were quite helpful. Overall customer service was fantastic. If I'm in the market again for an item they manufacture, I will definitely be giving Harvey Industries my consideration.

Bought a new Table Saw from Harvey:
@Thomas dugar
Excellent Customer Service and REALLY, REALLY, impressive products!!! I was recently in the market for a new table saw and discovered the company via an instagram post from an influential and very seasoned woodworker. I wasn't familiar with the company, but after a little research, I discovered that they've been around since 1999 and only recently started selling their saws directly in North America (Important note: For the past 15 years they've been the supplier of saws and machinery for many of the big name US Brands, so this isn't their first Rodeo so to speak). I had a question about one of their saws so I decided to send them an email, and they responded extremely promptly. I had a barrage of additional questions which were all answered courteously and in great detail. This type of service and attention is severely lacking from many of the other brands...Trust me, I reached out to several other manufactures trying to find out more about the table saws they sell for comparison, and in several cases, after a weeks' time, I'm still awaiting a response. With this formula of quality products, priced to deliver incredible value, and a customer service/product support team which actually listens and cares about existing and potential consumers of their products, they have no choice but to be an absolute success! Thank you Harvey Woodworking!!!
