I bought one of these last year…the fence-part of it does get in the way on the right side…but it is easily removable with one knob and does not affect use. It's a bad ass saw. Got it as a package deal from HD with the collapsible wheeled cart. Very nice set up.
$100 less & 2"s bigger
If you don't need the bigger saw, you'll easily make up that price difference in cheaper 10" blades over the life of the saw

also rigid has led shadow, bosch has the glide mechanism that save space and better electric brake.
The Harbor freight Hercule one has a user rating of 4.9 vs 4.4 for the Ridgid one, with each over 2k reviews. I get that the Ridgid is nice but that's a bold statement to say it is much better quality. Also the cheapest sliding hf miter saw is half the price of the Ridgid one. There i believe you that it is not quite as good but as with most things there are diminishing returns and the 150 dollars one will fit more people's need than a 300 dollars, most likely. Long story short, I would not dismiss hf so quickly. Thanks for the info though, not trying to flame, just trying to stay objective.
I would also posit that the people leaving reviews on the HD website have substantially higher expectations for a tool than someone shopping at HF. I do both and I always accept what I am getting into at HF and do not have high expectations. If it doesn't break by the second time I use it I am pleasantly surprised. I am not trying to flame either, I am just saying that I think Ridgid will give you more value if you plan to use this tool somewhat regularly. And if it is an infrequent use then sure why tie up too much money on it. I spent like $600 over 20years ago on my Dewalt 12" slider and it still works well. It is great to now have two nice tools so I can set them up for two different cuts so I don't have to make as many cut changes during a project. A plus on the HF is that the risk of theft is somewhat lower! Good luck on the decision making process.
