No sliding? No
Sliding gives you more capacity, but at a cost. Not just in dollars, but in increased size, weight, complexity, and slop.

You could build and trim out a typical house without maxing out the capacity of this saw. What is it that you really need to put a miter on that is larger than a fixed saw like this can handle? If you have an honest answer to that, then by all means get the big slider. If not, a fixed saw like this is much more desirable.

I agree, the sliding saw is heavy and awkward making it a PITA if you need to haul it around. With that being said, I do use the slider quite a bit for cutting shelf boards around the house.

I have this saw, it replaced a Rigid that I had for many years. Honestly, I was surprised how much more powerful this saw is than my previous one. Can't speak for professionals, but for DIY, I recommend it.

Would a sliding 7 1/4" or 10" be better than a non sliding 12"? I have a non-sliding 7 1/4" right now and it's done everything I've needed it for, but just curious to see if a sliding one in a smaller size would be better. I'd mostly be using it for wood working with maybe base board repairs as secondary usage.

Not with 90 degree 2x6. I have to finish it up with a manual saw

From the specs:
"2-inch x 8-inch dimensional lumber cross cut capacity at 90 degree and 2-inch x 6-inch dimensional lumber at 45 degree"

The answer is... It depends on what your needs are.

If one was better than the other there would not be so many options.

You have find the balance that works for you between portability and small size or accuracy, power and robustness. There is more to it, but those are the main tradeoffs

I got this saw and the stand for 199$ a few months back. The stand was the "free gift". I am very happy with both. Much more power than my older sliding ryobi.

I bought this one because I needed to cut crown moulding. To do that accurately, you need a tall fence and stops, which can be purchased as an accessory. My 10" could not do that so I got this one. Its heavy and precise. Everything else I use my sliding 10". I found that the construction quality of a sliding 7 1/4" saw simply wasnt at the same level as the 10 or 12" one.
