I have a table saw and never realized what I was missing in saw work until I purchased the sliding dual saw. The things I can do now is 100% more wood cutting.

I'm impressed it came with a laser sighting option the only disappointment I have with the tool is that the laser sighting have to be turned on manually and multiple cuts it's fantastic I use it I don't use the laser quick cuts because accuracy is so good in the stand that I bought is a Hitachi also and that is fantastic I highly recommend stand and the product I've been cutting everything from six by sixes which from the product standard says it can't be cut !This tool exceeds in quality and Value! $

It's a great saw for the price. In my opinion I think its better then the yellow one. Right to roll right out of the box. Setup was a breeze.

Great Saw

Opened the box, followed the set-up instructions, and started making accurate cuts and miters. I used the saw to make cuts in hardwood flooring and miter cuts in trim work in my new house. The only issue I have had is the guard sometimes does not retract all the way on mitered cuts. Great Saw!

Great for work around house
Rating: 4
The saw was well packaged and all cut angles were correct, right out of the box. The use of the saw is easy and intuitive, allows the DIY'er to start using it almost immediately. Laser is a nice addition. Only criticism that I can offer is that the sawdust bag seems relatively useless, so could use some redesign.

Good value
Rating: 4
The saw is powerful and accurate. The stops are dead on. The laser is basically useless. It moves too much and doesn't say zeroed. This is the best sliding compound miter saw for the price. I give it 4 1/2 stars.
