I like that it has a little extra cutting high vs. a direct drive motor

Met expectations. Suggest checking alignment before first use.

number 1 in my book
I picked up My power Miter at home depot and took it out of the box and everything was right on from the factory.

    Poor dust control
    Ridiculous attempt at a dust collector. My old Delta saw was much, much better. Dewalt has to use a little ingenuity and come up with a design that works.

    If it ain’t broke don’t fix it
    I have used the DW716XPS for years and mine was getting a little old decided to buy this newer model and it’s not great the rear fences are out of square the angle arrow is a huge block the old one was way better disappointing to say the least hard to be an accurate finish carpenter when your saw is out of square and you can’t even adjust the back fence if there’s any way I can get an old DW716XPS please let me know!!

      Great saw!
      This saw was 90 and squared fence right out of the box, I really enjoy it! The only issue I'm having now, with in 3 weeks of me having this saw is, the LED light doesn't always work. I'm not sure why, but it will work for an hour, then I go back for another cut, and its not working. I've tried unplugging it and still doesn't work. I'm not sure if I should return it for another saw or what. I need to reach out to customer support

        Awesome Miter Saw
        Don't need a sliding miter saw. Had purchased a 'value brand' from Home Depot and ended up returning due to quality issues. This saw is amazing! Easy to use and cuts through 2X6's - along with everything else like butter. The shadow line is a 'must have' as it makes easy and accurate cuts. The blade brake works perfectly. This has become one of my favorite tools on my DYI remodel project. This DeWalt saw is a heavy duty quality item.

          Love the light , wanted to buy another DWS780 but dewalt now using inferior motors and all the NON upgraded parts (SAME AS 779). Disappointed Dewalt would do this . I needed another saw to go with my old 780 , but the new 780 is much inferior to old one ! I will buy another slider , probably a Makita.

          Very pour quality saw. Had the older model , figured it was time to get a spare saw just in case my older saw has to get repaired. Once I got the new saw home and had time to feel the saw I could tell right away this is a completely different saw and will not holdup to daily job site use. The hinge mechanism for the saw has a lot more give to it than my old model so I returned it and found the model I have dusty and on display stil at another store so I bought it.

          Excellent saw, should serve me well for many years. Light is nice bonus though the kerf is just slightly wider than shadow line.
