First of all it does everything. Its a monster, which brings me to my only complaint is its huge. Its hard to move around and harder to store. But this thing will cut anything.

Bought this as a present. He loves it !!! Great saw that can handle everything from cutting base boards to be installed – to installing a deck. That being said – make sure you use the right blade for the right job.

It was a birthday gift for my son and he was thrilled beyond belief.

After almost 20 years of casual to hard use, I finally wore out my Ryobi Miter Saw. I have not thoroughly tested this one yet, but I really like the XPS light and the power of the motor. So far, I am very pleased with this unit and it meets my needs well.

Perfect for my needs

Saw is as expected and works great. DeWalt blade is mediocure. Upgraded the blade to a Diablo and this saw is a beast. Saw is heavier than expected but still manageable as a portable miter.

Very satisfied with this saw. The light is better than I imagined . One adjustment to square it and off and running

Love everything about this unit, except the cheap dust catcher. Small complaint for an awesome piece of machinery

Purchased this new miter saw to replace my old Craftsman when the motor on it went out to lunch. Love the APS light system and the 12 inch capacity. Thus far, a very nice saw to use.

Cut 3/4 inch Oak flooring using and it was perfect. The XPS Light system is bettrr than a laser. Got the saw for less on line, it arrived on time.

I have used this saw to make multiple decks/sheds/awnings etc. Still runs like brand new. I like the 12″ blade since it is big enough to get through the angle cuts on 2×6 and 4×6 (mainly what I use for these). Goes right through without losing power.

Saw is still brand new, and I haven’t done much cutting with it yet. But, it does come very well recommended by people I know that install windows and doors every day for a living. Now, sitting on my bench, the saw seems very well built. I now look forward to starting some new projects!

Very little adjustment needed right out of the box. XPS light is well worth it. Best saw on the market

Wasn’t square from factory. The dust collection is non existent. Even with a shop vac attached it isn’t much better. Didnt think it was going to be a big deal. I knew it was lacking when I bought it but wow it’s bad. The light is great and the saw seems to do a great job with what I’ve used it for.

Purchased this to replace a 10″ Delta miter saw in which the blade guard shattered on me. Unable to get a replacement and for cutting 4 & 6 treated landscape logs, this works much better. I am getting a little more creative with my retaining wall/border cuts. Previously used a Stihl chainsaw but this makes much smoother cuts. It is heavy but it is very sturdy. Carrying it by the handle is awkward but at least it has a handle. I don’t know where else they could have mounted a handle after thinking about it. I really wanted a miter saw that could do wider boards but those are heavier yet. I would have if my set-up was stationary, but I haul this up and down basement steps when I use it outside. I have a lot of rotted boards that need to be replaced. Had to order this for store pickup as Home Depot does not stock these in the stores. I give Home Depot a 3 for that policy. I own a lot of Bosch and some Milwaukee power tools and this is my only DeWalt. I am satisfied though I am going to have to lift more weights so I can carry this easier. It is awkward more than anything.
