I totally agree, and sometimes wondered if the design was so inherently heavy to help reduce the chance of a runaway saw arm chopping accident.Alot of DIY'ers got hurt using these saws and so companies like Craftsman quit making them. At one point
they even offered $100.00 for the motor off of them so they would be out of service! Liability insurance.
If you find a good one, grab it! Most are now only commercial models that are way more expensive.
