Model overview based on user reviews  
The Makita LH1040 combined saw has received mixed feedback from users. While it boasts a powerful 1650 W motor and features like soft start and motor brake, some users have expressed dissatisfaction with the product's quality, particularly those manufactured in China. A significant concern highlighted is the blade play of up to 3 mm, which has been reported by multiple users, leading to frustration. Despite positive reviews about its performance, some users experienced issues with dust removal, lighting, and angle adjustments during use. Additionally, there have been complaints about the durability of components, with parts like casings and handles reportedly becoming loose or breaking. Overall, while the saw has potential, the quality inconsistencies have left some users disappointed.
Cons

all the saws I looked at and bought from China with the Makita brand, they all don’t work,
6 October 2019 
i read good reviews about 1040 and decided to buy it! since my devolt began to play 0.5 mm, I ordered it on the Makita website, they delivered it right behind the disk and there was a play of up to 3 mm. I was upset, I was returning the product, I read it again and decided that I ordered the wrong one, I should order 1040F. I ordered it on the Goods website, they delivered it, I thought, well, that’s it, it’s my new saw)) I take hold of the blade again, the same play, I don’t know how to explain my feelings, but I was very upset!!!! I started reading reviews, everyone praised and sang praises, well, I think that maybe it should be for 28,000 rubles and not for 23,000 rubles, I ordered again on the Makita website, they brought it - AGAIN this damn backlash, well, I think I should take it in work to check, but my inner instinct says no take it!! but I give the money and pick it up and the courier leaves!! during work, problems began with the corners with dust removal, lighting, what is there and what is not, they installed 3 doors and the Makita began to crumble, casings, handles, lighting were flying off, the angle was off - tired of adjusting, washed it, cleaned it, took it back to the store, they didn’t accept it, they said it was through the workshop, in the workshop they threw up their hands and showed 6 more pieces of these makitas and said that the gaps are not a defect!! not a defect!! not a marriage!! that's how I bought a bunch of scrap metal for 27,000 rubles
there is not!!! There is not!! While they are releasing in China!!!
i saw myself and there is a big drawback, everything made in China is a toy and not a professional tool, and my colleagues who have such saws have no play!! and they are made in Japan, and all before 2010
