The Gravity rise stand completed my new Bosch miter saw. Easy to assemble. Easy to use. Only down side is it would be nice with bigger wheels , and a built in power strip would be awesome too.

This thing makes amazing cuts. A few comments to make yourself happier with the purchase: Do yourself a favor and get a vacuum. This thing is a snowblower. The gravity rise is a necessity with this saw. It's nearly 60 pounds and hard to lug around. Luckily, the gravity rise stand is AMAZING. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Bosch-Gravity-Rise-Miter-Saw-Stand-with-Wheels-T4B/203899895

one of my favorite stands for my miter saw. when i first unboxed, it required alot of assembly so be prepared with tools and patience, and dont forget to use the instruction manual. once assembled, this stand works quite nicely. the mechanism is all metal and has no cables which tend to strech, fray, and break overtime. the wheels have no issues rolling over multiple types of terrain. very minimal plastic pieces, all metal, so durability is high. only slight downside is the weight, coming in at around 150lbs, its quite the monster to pick up or take up stairs. other than that, i have no complaints.

    I just happen to be walking through HD looking a came across a great deal I couldn't pass up. This was a Christmas present for myself and I even had a gift card so this made it a no brainer purchase. I've never used a miter saw, but after reading the instruction and watching some youtube videos it was a breeze. The construction and innovation is top notch and the smooth action of the arm is great. My saw was a perfect 90 out of the box so I was able to start cutting some 2x4 for a simple project I was doing around the house. I change the blade to a Diablo which most reviews recommended for a better cut. In my opinion this is a great saw even though I'm just a novice at this, but I know for sure this will be the only miter saw purchase I'll need

      Was bit difficult to put together. There were no instructions ,we got online to get those. One spot had a screw that needed tiny fingers to get it started. Glad to say I could hep my husband with that. Otherwise he seems pleased with this product.

        Beautiful. Engineering Masterpiece. Amazing Form Factor. The Porsche of Miter Saws. Won't Cut Straight.
        This was my dream saw. The first one wouldn't cut straight, leaving teeth-marks down the length of the board. I calibrated it. I tried to get it fixed at an authorized service center to no avail. I exchanged it for a second saw. Same exact problem! Called Bosch. No help. I'll be returning this one too. I hated to do this--it's like trading a Porsche for a Volvo--but I bought a nice Dewalt and, though it's not pretty and takes up the majority of my two-car garage, it cuts perfectly. I'm so flippin' bummed. 2 saws , 2 setups, 2 calibrations, and 3 blades later, I've had it.

        Great saw, innovative design
        Bosch has put out a great saw with this one. The innovative glide action works smoothly and takes up less space than the common slide rail systems. All controls are up front making adjustments easy and fast. It's a very well thought out design with the needs and issues of the woodworker/carpenter/trim carpenter in mind.

        Best miter saw on the market
        The best feature of this product is that you can set the miter saw flush against the wall. No space is needed behind the saw because there are no slide bars behind it as is the issue with almost all other miter saws. If you have limited space in your shop...this is the saw you want! Very smooth and accurate cuts right out of the box! The Home Depot price was the best I could find out there on the internet.

        High quality heavy duty materials. Easy to fold and maneuverable. Love the material extensions that allow me to hold longer stock. Unlike some reviews that I read before buying it that said there were no assembly instructions included, I was pleasantly surprised to see excellent step-by-step instructions to assemble the unit. Great overall product!

        Saw stand great, service beyond horrible!!
        This is the second stand I have bought from Bosh both for Milwaukee cordless saws. The second stand was missing a 100mm bolt. Calling customer service the person made me repeat all information 3 times. The fourth time I spoke slowly they said they were insulted and hung up. The second call took 4 times through was supposed to send an email for receipt upload, but no email all for one bolt. Took saw stand back for a new one. It is hands down the best stand. Best stand with the worst service.

          Saw and cart function very well. Delivery was a massive hassle and only purchase option. None in stores. Damage to cart in shipment#1. Return process required negotiating on phone (near 1 hour) with Bosch to not have to repackage the massive puzzle of cart components and parts already assembled (damage part discovered in late step of assembly. Assembly takes 1 hour+. Return only possible sending cart AND I damaged saw back together via subcontracted mystery shipping company. Mystery shipping company no showed, ghosted email responses. Addition comms to Bosch to coordinate subcontracted shippers. 1 + week hassle just to return the cart. Should I fill out a W-4 as a Bosch and HD employee? Seems so. Age of customer service is dead among other things these days.

          Bought for my 10" Bosch miter saw to fit on. Miter saw fit great on it and the cart is a beast.Assembly directions could be improved upon.

          Table is great. Instructions caused a bit of a problem, maybe operator error. But finally got it figured out.

          Was looking for a stand that took minimal physical effort to collapse and stand up. As for now I am happy with how smooth it works. I have only had it for a short while, but seems to work very well.

          DO NOT BUY THE HOME DEPOT WARRANTY!!!!!!!!!
          We bought the 3 year protection plan. Home depot does not honor this outside of 90 days!!!!! From there they will refer you to the home depot protection plan... Which is ran by Allstate. Allstate sends you to a company named SquareTrade. After that they inform you that Bosch has a 5 year manufacturers warranty!! You must go through Bosch to get their warranty honored. YOU ARE LITERALLY BEING SCAMMED. $100 dollars and a half day of my time wasted. Thanks Home Depot! Glad you look out for small businesses.
