I have that one too. I never trust the angle readings. Always use a combination square or a known previous square cut to set up the blade. Or for random angles (15, 30 etc), just make sure I cut all the angles cuts in one go. Cutting some angles, then going back to 90 and then trying to get that exact same angle again is nigh on impossible. But like you said, not fussed due to the cost.

I bought an Evolution mitre saw for a decking project, cutting loads of ipe to length. Made easy work of it. You can’t trust the fence to be set up square out of the factory but at that price you really cannot complain. The only issue for me was buying one that was far too big for my realistic needs because it was so cheap. They don’t fit easily in cupboards and I don’t have a garage.
