I had my Milwaukee 6266 saw for a year and it failed tonight. It makes a
loud griding noise. I am going to take it back to Lowes and exchange it.
Anyone else heard of problems with this saw? Should I get something else? I
like the saw a lot though.

IIRC Milwaukee had a lifetime warranty back then. They are who you should
contact.

Uhhh... Lowes is under no obligation to take back a saw that is a year
old - they didn't build it. Any repairs would be handled by Milwaukee
Warranty Service Center - IF it is still under warranty.
As for a new saw, the Porter Cable saw is good, and so is the worm
drive Skil 77 - if you've got the bucks. All other Skil Saws are to
be avoided.
