Good saw but there's a lot of models now that have duplicated what made this saw unique. Had it, sold it, nearly bought it again last time it was on sale, decided I didn't need the rolling Dewalt stand (not really convenient for moving it unless you're already storing it vertical which isn't very space saving) and got the Skil clone this week instead. $280 at Menards through 10/8 if you're in the midwest and don't need the rolling stand or to be yellow.

Is that the Skil with the integrated fold-out legs? I looked pretty closely at that, and thought the it looked really good, particularly the mechanisms for aligning the fence and blade, which put it above other table saws I've had at that price point. I decided on this Dewalt with the higher table height and very large fence capacity, since I'm fairly tall and mostly will be ripping down full boards.
I also was considering the $900 Sawstop, but decided a wide base and wide fence were more to my advantage safety-wise than a narrower table with the brake technology. (Yes, I know Sawstop has a $1700 option with rolling stand that is more comparable to this saw, but I'm not willing to spend an additional $1400, inclusive of tax and extra brake cartridge, for that insurance policy-- my plan is to use this for a few projects before upgrading to a cabinet saw next year when I move to a different space.
Currently, I'll have to roll this out of a storage room every time I use it, so glad to have that feature.
I just got one. I think this is the close to if not the best price it's been. Especially with free shipping. I've seen it at this price before but shipping usually kills it.

That's the one. Looking at the reviews it looked like nearly a 1:1 clone of the Dewalt saw (including some of the areas that need to be updated or lack adjustment) but I did like the areas Skil did add some updates to. Only got it out of the box yesterday (the joys of having to store home improvement trash in the garage until you're ready for a dumpster and working around it) so time will tell if it winds up as reliable as the Dewalt. I don't see myself using i the same way I would have a couple years ago when I had the Dewalt (or to need to break down sheet goods beyond a quick circular saw pass). Figured I would save the $200 and try the new option (been real happy with their miter saw) and throw that towards a basic cabinet saw or something down the road, if it turns out I'm using it beyond one of these capabilities after all. Anyone who goes with the yellow one should be plenty happy with it though.

Nearly everyone one of you would be much better served by a track saw
If all you're going to be doing is breaking down sheet goods then I would 100% agree that a $100 guide system and your track saw will be a much better option. You're going to be in a lot more difficult or dangerous situation if you want to be cutting consistent dados or laps, french cleats, thin cuts, cross cuts, splines, etc. They can be done with other tools but there are things where doing it on the table saw is both the safest and fastest option. Also a good, dedicated track saw is going to run as much as a good table saw so that's not really an option for many hobbyists.

In a previous thread someone posted this link. I think this is the Skill one people are talking about.
That said, I'm still using an old Harbor Freight one and don't use it enough to justify upgrading as much as I want to right now. But that Skill looks like a better fit for me and my budget.
I checked again when you said that and the price showed up as $474, but when I went to buy now, the price was not the discounted price but the $549 price. I'm getting screwed.
Been checking daily and it's back but only because there's a note under the discounted price that it "Ships Locally." Without that, I'm sure this deal wouldn't be on.

Old post so you may not see this. But can the legs be removed from the Skil one?
I have a table saw workbench and don't need the legs.

That's a very good question, I'm honestly not sure since it comes entirely assembled. The frame goes into the joints for the legs and screws go through both so my instinct is probably not.

Can you use it with the legs folded? Is it stable that way?
