 Best 10" Saw period. October 12, 2008

I purchased the factor reconditioned version of this product and was amazed that when I unpacked it the saw didn't even look like it was used. It came in a brown box but when opened you would have thought it was a brand new saw. I have owned 3 other miter saws, Craftsman, Hitachi and Makita and far and away this one is better. First, the quality of the construction is much better as it has less plastic pieces where it matters, table, fence, miter gauge and back throat. Second the miter gauge is the absolute best as it is metal and it has all the relevant notches for angles. Plus it the angles are much more accurate than the other saws. Third the dust collection is excellent even without a vac attached. The others tend to allow saw dust to go everywhere while the Dewalt shoots it straight out the back. Fourth the quality of the cut is better right out of the box with the blade it came with. While this is easily changed with the other saws it was nice. I cut primarily base board molding and crown molding with my saw. The base board molding is 3 1/2" and the crown is 3". No problem with cut sizes or having enough capacity available to do the job.
Dewalt DW713 10 inch Compound Miter Saw October 12, 2008
Ross L. Smith (New Market,VA)
I love this saw! I wish I had bought it a long time ago. I have a small business and do a lot of repeat cuts which must be very accurate. I have a shop full of equipment;planer,jointer,table & radial arm saws,band saw,etc and this saw fits right in. It is very accurate and a joy to use. I had an other miter saw but I like saw much better. With the blade lock it is much easier to change blades. The retro laser I had works perfectly with this saw.

Solid construction, sufficient power, smooth movement of parts. Detent overide is handy, so is top-mount carry handle. Vented blade guard helps send a good percentage of dust out the port. Not the lightest in its class but the most saw available at its price. Considering the Amazon price, free shipping and state sales tax I would otherwise have paid, I saved around $31.00 compared to one of the big-box home centers.
 I DIDN'T Buy This Saw (And wished I did) August 11, 2008
R. L. Johnson (Bellevue, WA United States)
Instead I got seduced by a Craftsman with a laser (useless) and extensions (they droop) and a stand (wobbly) for the same price. Oh, and to add insult to injury, it also WON'T cut a 2X4 on edge (hits the motor casing unless I add a 1/2" spacer to the fence). So much for value shopping. Every time I see a DeWalt in a store, I wish I'd gotten it instead. Buy the DeWalt. For most home usage, a 10" will do and it's light and compact. If you are going to frame or build with 2X6's, buy the 12". Or, if you can, buy the $liding ver$ion.

I use this on the job a lot as a pro trim carpenter. I work for myself so I have to buy tools that will last and pay for themselves many times over before having to be replaced. This one is no exception and I am very pleased with it.
I also own a 12 inch double bevel Dewalt and that is a great saw too. I user the ten inch one for most of the trim in normal house. The twleve inch is better for crown and stair work.
This saw has adequate power and does not bog down unless you really try to rush it which is a bad idea to start with. I cut plenty of hardwood with it and have had no problems.
The saw is very accurate, mine was perfect out of the box.
You should add the laser and a better blade if you want to use this to it's full potential. Well for trim anyway, the blade on it is ok for general use.
I do precision work and this saw does good for me (With a better blade than comes on it). I would reccomend it to anyone looking for a good ten inch saw.
I like the dewalt miter saw stand too, it works well with this and all dewalt saws.
I reccomend this as a pro carpenter, it is a good tool.
