Summary: DeWalt table saw
Comment: I have had one of these for years and the only complaint I have is that the fence will not stay even with the blade. I swapped it out for a new one and it has the same problem.

Summary: Good saw, unresolved problem
Comment: I spent considerable time researching job-site table saws and concluded that the DeWalt DW744X was the best fit for my work. The 24" rip capacity was a major consideration along with the need for an overall top-quality tool.
However, some of these saws have a manufacturing defect as noted by others on this forum. Yesterday [17 March 2008] I spoke with a Black & Decker representative who told me they were presently considering what action to take on this issue. It has been resolved on saws of very recent manufacture but potentially defective saws are still out there on the market. Once a decision on a recall or other corrective action is made, I expect B&D will have a range of serial numbers that could be defective. No such information is presently available. Though I need to get a saw on site soon, I am going to wait a couple of weeks to see what B&D is going to do about this. The 744X remains my saw of choice but I am not going to risk buying one that has a known defect.
I gave it three stars because I had to fill in something. I expect that without the defect it would be a four or five-star product. With the defect it would rate zero stars. Let's hope for quick action by B&D.

Summary: Dewalt 744 recall
Comment: I bought a 744 after trying out the 745 and decided I would like the larger fence. The 744 I received from an online source (Tyler Tools) had a serious blade wobble and when set at 45 deg. the blade would contact the plate. The box it was shipped in looked as if it been hit by a semi! I called the Dewalt center (Seattle for me) and they traded me for a brand new model which works flawlessly. They told me some versions of the 744x are on recall so watch out. I haven't found any information online about the recall except for a posting in Australia. Had I not been near a Dewalt center I would have been hit with some serious shipping costs so be careful before you order a 744x.

Summary: Dewalt Dissapointments
Comment: I had purchased a small contractor DeWalt 745 saw. It was a great little saw. But I wanted the larger 744x unit. I need a bigger fence area. Got the first 744 and it had a problem with the rack and pinion fence. It was so tight It wouldn' move. Tried adjusting it via the owners manual to no avail. Amazon shipped another unit and to my dismay it also had a rack and pinion AND fence problem. The fence would hang on the right miter slot. And the pinion gears jumped off the track when trying to adjust the fence. I'm very dissappointed in the factory setup on these saws. Poor quality control. I believe once I get beyond these poor factory quality issues I might have a good saw. But frankly, I would think twice before purchasing a DeWalt saw agaain . . .
