Best Saw!!!
Rating: 5
This saw is the best battery operated in the market. Light is a big plus. Very good access to take any where to make cuts and u can't tell the difference from a battery or extension and u still have that option. Very good saw the best only difference I Felt Was I put in the extension adapter to the saw It make a wired sound. I do recommend get the 9 Hours battery's. I do finish carpentry So the 9Hours are just enough to end your day.

Excellent saw!
Rating: 5
I purchased this saw 2 years ago and it was a great decision. As a trim carpenter, a miter saw is an essential part of my tool arsonal. It has great run time on the batteries, is very accurate, and has a low learning curve. I highly recommended! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Connecting the DHS790 exhaust port to Rigid vacuum
Rating: 5
Purchased a RIGID 6.5 gallon wet dry vacuum to connect to the 1 1/2 inch exhaust port on my DeWalt DHS790. However, the three piece DeWalt vacuum accesory adapter kit had NOTHING to connect my RIGID 1 1/2 inch hose end to the DHS790. FIX was at Home Depot, a "Fernco" 1 1/4 inch x 1 1/4 inch Flexible PVC Coupling with metal screw couplers at each end of the rubber coupler. Remove one metal coupler and discard, lossen the other metal coupler and slide that end fully onto the exhaust port then tighten the metal coupler. Half of the rubber coupling accepts the 1 1/2 inch end of the hose from the RIGID Vacuum. In addition, the rubber coupling also accepts the accesory kit adapter from 1 1/2 inch to 2 inch vacuum horses.

The best saw is now corded and cordless!
Rating: 5
There is nothing this saw can't do. The sight line speeds up cuts, I don't even mark my boards any more. Just drop the tape measure on it, line the shadow of the blade up and cut. I love this saw. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Great Saw, Improve Dust Collection!
Rating: 4
Amazing saw, does everything you want with ease on the jobsite. I especially appreciate the corded option. Can't give it 5 stars since it can't be set up to even a simple shop vac for dust collection. The suction causes the dust port to collapse when you do so. Other than that, great!
