Surprisingly good value
Rating: 5
I was buying it for a backup due to its extremely low cost and my Pryor good experience with Hitachi. I was pleasantly surprised and now use it as my primary trim miter saw.

Great Miter Saw
Rating: 5
Always loved Metabo products, so this miter saw I purchased did not disappoint!! The ergonomics and ease of use is second to none. Very little assembly was required and it was cutting in no time. Can’t wait to purchase more Metabo tools to add to my wood shop. Highly recommend this product!!! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Quality miter saw at a good price
Rating: 5
I have used the saw 7-8 times within the first month of taking it out of the box. So far I am completely satisfied. Sure, it could have a few more bells and whistles, but as I paid for no other bells or whistles, I have no complaint. Quality miter saw at a good price.

10" Mitre Review
Rating: 4
Mitre saw works very well for the tasks I have used on it. I have also used it for aluminum cutting and it did a great job. Of course I purchased a metal blade. A couple minor improvements would make it even better: The discharge plate for debris it a little to small. Debris can scatter around the work station instead of going into the dust catcher bag. Not a big deal is you are used to cleaning up after every job. Second the blade screw could have a better head for easier removal and installation. That is it. Overall this saw is an excellent value.

Great tool, instructions need improvement

The instructions were somewhat confusing, felt like I had to figure several things out on my own. Overall it's a very good tool, I'm very happy with it's performance for my DIY projects around the house

10" Compound Miter Saw C10FCG(S) | Metabo HPT
Rating: 4
Good for homeowners, I couldn't pass it up for the price. I will use it mostly for trim work but it will cut deck boards. Pretty powerful. I was using a hand miter saw and this is a dream compared to that. Miters are pretty close out of the box and I have made adjustments to get them closer. A wider range on the miters would have been nice as would a hex bolt in lieu of a hex socket to attach the blade. It's light weight is good for portability, I made a platform to clamp to sawhorses until I get a saw stand.

Not bad for the price
Rating: 4
Cuts straight at 0*, but when cutting 45* from both sides there is about 1/2* gap. When you cut a small piece at 0*, then rotate 90* and give another cut, there is that 1/2* error in being exactly a 90* angle. Tried two different speed squares and one combination square and none would show exactly 90*. Just need to have a Metabo tech tell or show me how to adjust the blade to be 45* & 90* exactly.

My First Miter Saw
Rating: 4
Overall a good saw. It has been able to do everything that ive asked out of it. The only issues that im currently having with it are that sometimes when i let go of the trigger, it takes a while for it to slow down. Other times it cuts off pretty fast. The only other issue that ive come across is that more saw dust ends up on the floor rather than in the bag. Not quite sure why, but not a big issue for the price.

Bought this saw to replace the non sliding model. nothing wrong with it, just wanted the slider.Great saw. Works just as described. Laser is dead on, out of the box!

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.

We have a few mitre saws in the shop. Now that we have the Hitachi, it's the go to saw. Literally leaves the other in the saw dust!

This saw is REAL! Power, accuracy right out of the box!
Rating: 5
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
Rating: 4
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!
by rlysaw on 2018-10-02T17:00:00

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.
