The Makita 12 in. Dual-Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw with Laser (model LS1219L) combines capacity, accuracy and efficient dust extraction in a more compact size, with a unique 2-Steel Rail Sliding System that offers a reduced footprint for operation flush against a wall. The innovative direct-drive gearbox and guard system is engineered for increased vertical cutting capacity of baseboard (6-3/4 in.) and crown molding (8 in. nested). It will also make 15 in. crosscuts at 90°s. The saw miters 0° to 60° left and right, with positive stops at 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 31.6°, 45° and 60° (left or right). The bevel lock is located in the front of the saw for easy access and quick adjustments from 0° to 48° (left and right). The saw is powered by a 15 AMP direct drive motor with soft start, a key point of difference. Direct drive enables smoother start-ups and consistent, constant power with no belts to slip or replace. The electric brake provides added convenience. In addition, the electronic speed control maintains constant speed under load for smoother, higher-quality cutting. This Promotion also comes with a bonus AF506 2 in. Brad Nailer, 18 Gauge.

Truly exceptional saw, well designed and functable. Love dust capture system. Required minor adjustment for trueing out of box. Also … excellent instruction manual although .pdf version is better.

Overall the saw is great. High quality materials, the blade that’s included is good for fine cuts. My only complaints are that I expected the laser would illuminate exactly where the blade will cut, but that is not the case. The laser aligns just to the left or right of the blade and you’ve got to compensate your cuts accordingly; certainly not ideal. And lastly, I was expecting the dust collection system to collect more of the saw dust than it does. But overall its super high quality and a great product.
