Price wise, it blows them out of the water. You won't find a better brand new saw under $250 anywhere, and for a DIYer, this saw hits all the necessary notes. The only "con" that Popular Mechanics could come up with, after voting it Best Value right behind a $650 DeWalt, is that it doesn't have quite as much cut capacity as a 12" sliding saw, but, well, duh… it's a 10" saw. As with any miter saw, the dust collection leaves a lot to be desired, but it's functional. There also aren't positive bevel stops, so you have to hold the angle with one hand and tighten with the other—nothing an electronic angle finder can't help with though.

Having owned a 12" DeWalt that didn't slide, 10" blades are cheaper, easier to find, and have more variety of manufacturers, tooth counts, etc. available off-the-shelf.

Planning on replacing baseboards and door trim on whole house and needed a miter saw. Good timing!

Quote from FoxerBoxer :
i bought one of these recently as first miter saw. built some outdoor chairs with it. Its fantastic as a starter DIY, everything out of the box is 90 degree squared up. nice and snug packaging. Tip. to get deeper depth stop, just flip the thread upside down and you can get clean deep cuts for dados and rabbet joinery.

only downside is even with a workshop vac, i still get about 5% sawdust to clean up. tbf, maybe its my 45$ home depot shop vac
How wide is this saw/base? I have a rotating worktop and want to make sure it will fit.
