Great Saw overall
Rating: 5
I was impressed with how smooth the saw operated and the quality of the hardware gives this saw a very solid feel. The dust collection, paired with an adequate dust collector is quite impressive.

Needs work, but a decent product worth a look.

While it seems the overall quality and attention to detail has diminished quite a bit in this brand (formerly known as Hitachi), this saw does not disappoint in power and features. There are several accuracy issues as well as play in the stop locks for the bevel that definitely need to be addressed as well as some incredibly sloppy welds/joins in the saw that I wish they would have cared to cleaned up, however, as companies race to compete with each other and their own bottom line due to rampant greed and not giving any actual care about the end user/consumer, I sincerely doubt those issues will ever be addressed by any company, let alone Matabo HPT. So, for the price tag, it could and should be of a be MUCH better build with MUCH better accuracy and less play in the stop points with MUCH better attention to overall detail and design. That said, when compared to similarly priced items touting the same 'bells and whistles'', it's more than a decent choice, it's about the best choice out there. Only time and use will tell if this will hold up to the sands (saw dusts?) of time like my 1951 Craftsman 10" table saw has, but what can you expect nowadays as companies give more cares about their bottom line over creating a truly lasting, quality product.

Great saw
Rating: 4
1. The motor is strong. 2. The blade is sharp and has cut through the pine I've been using like butter. 3. The laser is bright and alignment is easily adjusted. 4. The slide is easy to maneuver and use. The operation is not as smooth as another saw I evaluated. 5. For the price an excellent value. I would buy again.

Outstanding saw!
Rating: 4
This saw is very well designed and the build quality is excellent. It is a pro tool at a DIY price. True cuts, detents are great, angle locking systems are superb! Laser is accurate and easy to adjust. No complaints so far!

10 inch sliding miter saw
Rating: 4
Went with the 10 inch instead of the 12 because it fits better in my shop. True out of the box, just doesn't have the feel of my 15 year old Delta that it replaced. Getting the job done after I upgraded the blade.

Input/Thoughts on Purchase
Rating: 3
A few things related to the saw. The saw has nice features but I found that the sliding bars are rusting quite rapidly which only means that over time the glide bushings will wear and the saw will become very hard to adjust properly. Secondly the scale that is on the front of the saw is off on one side by at least 1.5 to 2 degrees (one used for angle cuts). The machined detents seem to be better at holding the angle. Third, the bevels are difficult to adjust accurately. I tried setting up +/- 45 degrees and it's difficult to get it within 1-2 degrees repeatably.

I really wanted to Love this saw, but .....
Rating: 2
I really wanted to love this saw. It was awesome until I realized the miter fence was not straight. I mean, this thing was bad! The left side fence did not align with the right side fence. The fence is a one piece casting and there's no way to fix it. Where's the Quality Control at Metabo - or whomever makes this product for them? They must have been asleep the day my saw was assembled. I'm a Product Manager for Fortune 500 manufacturing company and one thing I know is that Quality Control is paramount to having a successful product which leads to product sales growth. When I contacted Metabo Customer Service, they just told me to return the saw to the retailer. So, that's what I did and I did NOT purchase another Metabo saw. I paid the extra $100 and bought a 12" Dewalt.
