It's not much heavier than a fully loaded suitcase and has a sturdy handle, so you aren't breaking your back to move a "portable" saw.
My only gripe is that the throat plate flexes on narrow stock and the inserts available are either aftermarket (expensive-ish) coated MDF or OEM plates made of the same flexing plastic as the included one. It's a fairly shallow mount so making a sturdy and moisture stable zero clearance insert isn't as easy as cutting a piece of 3/4" plywood and dropping it in place.

I have since done a slight upgrade to the sawstop cts, but I still have the skil for dado cuts.
It is super loud though. Those universal motors really scream. I'm saving up for a cabinet saw next.
I also reccomend making a parallel jig to fix the blade and fence. Mine were both slightly off from factory, but great when fixed.

But yeah, this thing is currently pretty much the top pick for a budget table saw. Just watch a YouTube video on setting up/calibrating a table saw if you've never done it before (stuff that should be checked with any new saw, just to make sure the angles and such are dead on).
I suppose you could take the legs off if you REALLY needed to by unscrewing a whole bunch of Allen heads that hold them on, but it's definitely not necessary.
