Great tool for a do-it-yourselfer. Produces little, to no dust. Highly recommend it. Well worth every penny.

I bought one of these to help me re-side the house. First, I am sold on using the shears vs the circular saw because of the dust. However, I have had three breakdowns on this shear, so I'm going to try another brand (maybe Pacific?, but $$, but it has high ratings). The bolts that held the head together broke several times and I was able to find bolts that fit at my local hardware store. But now part of the head called the 'eccentric' broke. On line the price is $68-$79 for this small piece. I assume this must break often, because it is way out of line with all of the other parts, so I feel like I would be getting gouged for the $. I'd rather pay extra for another one than keep going down this road. By the way, I am only about 1/2 around the house at this point, so the 'heavy duty' name for this tool leaves me questioning. I have been a faithful DeWalt user, but this tool's performance had really disappointed me.

For now, using a dusty saw in hot Florida....

shear worked well on the first 10 cuts, then the shear blade broke inside the head. Looked for a replacement part - cast iron blade the size of a pocket knife - cost $100. since it broke in the first 30 days, I returned it to Amazon and got a full refund. I need a cement shear so will try the porter cable or another brand.

This tool worked great during our siding effort. It cut through the hardiplank siding with little effort and no dust! Highly recommended if you plan on siding your house with Hardiplank.
