Summary: Very nice saw
Comment: I've had this saw for a couple of weeks now. I bought it to replace a Hatachi 10 inch Double Bevel miter saw that was just wore out. I used the saw to cut widow and door trim that I was replacing and to build a fireplace mantle. It cut nice striate, clean cuts.
I'm very pleased with the saw and would recommend it to anyone.

Summary: awesome cuts!
Comment: I got this saw for about $370 (free ship) +free palm sander....great deal and both tools are great. For the novice user, you can save $ by buying a "non-compound" saw since crown molding can be cut in a vertical position without compound cut. Wish someone told me, could have saved more, but it's awesome if you need the feature.

Summary: dewalt saw
Comment: Nice saw - so far so good, I hope it last as long as my single bevel chop saw...
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great saw even for a non-professional
Comment: Even though I was just using this to put a floor in my sunroom (and don't have much skill with power tools or carpentry), I thought the saw was easy to use, safe, and accurate. I found it worthwhile to buy a good quality saw, as it appears the Dewalt will continue to perform for many years to come.

Summary: I'm going to try again, will give it another chnce
Comment: After purchasing and then returning a Hitachi 12" dual bevel saw that had quality issues purchased from Lowe's (I wrote a review for that saw), I decided to purchase the DeWalt DW716 from Lowes. I really liked the DW716. Easy set up and accurate. I'm in the middle of installing crown and larger baseboards in every room in my house. After making three cuts, this saw just quit. Nothing, nada. The owners manual troubleshooting section states nothing of an overload or reset on this saw. It says to check that the power cord is plugged in (check) and check that the C.B. or fuse is not tripped (check). The 20 Amp circuit was fine (120 Volts measured). I went ahead and ate lunch, came back still nothing. Probably a bad switch or loose connection. I took the saw back and ordered a Bosch 4212L. Fast shipment from Amazon. I immediately fell in love with the Bosch saw. Short lived love affair, I discovered this saw was broken at the locking pin that holds the saw head assembly right out of the box. The pot metal had chipped in the area where the pin extends and the pin would keep slipping allowing the saw handle to move up. After talking to a Bosch factory rep. he said this is a total disassembly of the saw. This saw was probably a returned saw. One of the bags containing parts had been stapled back together. All other bags were like they were factory sealed. I am currently in the process of returning the Bosch saw back to Amazon.com for a refund. So far Amazon's return process has been excellent. Tomorrow, I will go back to Lowe's and purchase a second Dewalt DW716. I would try another Bosch from Amazon but I don't have the time to sit around and wait. The same thing could happen. I did like the features of that first DW716 and I figure it could have just been one of those things. That DeWalt has straight forward adjustments for the blade tuning. It's probably just my current situation, but I have run into many quality issues across the spectrum from many brands recently. I'm getting paranoid. I now know that Hitachi is having quality issues for sure (Made in China). The Bosch was (Made in Taiwan) the DeWalt at least is North America (Made in Mexico). Maybe we need to get some of this work back. Sorry, I'm venting.

A serious tool capable of making a wide range of cuts, the DeWalt DW716 Double-Bevel 12-Inch Compound Miter Saw makes use of a 15.0 Amp, 3,600 RPM motor to ensure the power, durability, and versatility that professional craftsmen and women need. 11 positive stops on the adjustable stainless steel detent plate and a cam lock miter handle with detent override make all the most frequently used miter cuts easy to achieve. Furthermore, DeWalt's exclusive back fence makes it possible to cut two by ten dimensional lumber at 90 degree angles and to cut two by eight lumber at 45 degrees, while the unique double bevel design allows you create both left and right bevels from 0 to 48 degrees. Positive stops in commonly used positions make it easy to change the position of the saw instead of flipping the material to give you more complete control. A machined base fence support helps guarantee accuracy, while the innovative engineering behind the gearbox and belt-drive increases vertical cutting capacity. In order to help you take advantage of this capacity, the saws extra-tall fences leave space to cut nested crown moldings up to 6-5/8-inches and base molding up to 6-1/2-inches in a vertical position up against the fence. And you don't have to worry about these fences interfering with bevel cuts, because they slide neatly out of the way. This fully-featured miter saw is relatively lightweight at just 44 pounds, and it offers a built-in carrying handle that makes it easy to move from job to job. It's also noteworthy that this saw is designed for use with the DW7187 DeWalt adjustable miter saw laser system (NOT INCLUDED), which makes the cutting path visible for improved accuracy and easier handling. Included with this saw is a durable carbide blade, a blade wrench, and dust bag to get you started. This DeWalt high-performance industrial tool is backed by a 3-year limited warranty.
