Overview
Running at 2500 RPM off a 336 watt AC motor, the WEN BA3959 weighs 40 pounds and takes a 59.5 inch blade, a figure that matches WEN's benchtop band saw line.
A 59.5 inch blade capacity is a specific figure that points to a band saw rather than a circular or table saw, and the high speed steel material listed likely describes the blade rather than the housing. Beyond speed, wattage, and blade length, the listing does not give a stated cutting depth or throat width, so check those against your material before buying.

Who it's for
Home shops and hobbyists needing a benchtop band saw that takes a 59.5 inch blade fit this saw well. Buyers wanting a portable or handheld saw should pass, given its 40 pound weight.
Pros and cons
- 336 watt motor for consistent power
- Takes a 59.5 inch blade
- Stable 40 pound benchtop weight
- Cutting depth not specified
- Throat width not listed
- Not portable given its weight
Performance notes
The 336 watt motor spinning at 2500 RPM drives the blade wheel, with actual cutting speed depending on the blade fitted rather than motor RPM alone. At 40 pounds, the saw is heavy enough to sit stable on a bench during use but is not built to be carried between job sites.
