For $30 more you can get the better functioning skil saw. Has less deflection and better everything in almost every category. This Rigid doesn't have lifetime warranty. It's a rebranded delta miter saw. I was about to pull the trigger until I learned about the skil

Good catch. Looking to upgrade from my basic Ryobi.

It's $249 for the skil and available at Lowe's or Amazon (plus with Amazon prime. 5% back or cashback via Lowe's 9%). That brings the Lowe's total price to $226. So actually just 7$ more! The skil saw sliding miter actually got pretty good reviews and many reviewers find it hard to beat at its msrp price

The one downside of the SKIL is the sliding mechanism, its the same as my Ryobi. For making a miter saw station, that makes the minimum counter depth almost 32". The Rigid, and Bosch type sliding mechanism is much more compact.
Bosch or Dewalt for the win?
10" Good or will I regret later & wished bought the 12"?
Depends what you're doing, 10" sliding will handle most things. Anything longer you'd be looking at a table saw anyways. Table saws can produce a much longer straight cut. 10" saws take up less space. 12" take up more space but not by much. Majority of my use case for mitersaw is outside so space has never been a concern but weight matters more to me. The skilsaw @$249 at Lowe's weighs about 39lbs, the 10" rigid aka delta saw weighs 53 lbs or so iirc.
I'm tempted to wait for a deal on the skil, then that'd really be a slickdeal

I have an older Craftsman that I can't duplicate a cut on to save my life since it's so sloppy. Been looking to upgrade for a while.
