DeWalt DWS779
Score: 88/100Rankings
The Bosch CM10GD is a high-performance 10-inch dual-bevel sliding miter saw featuring a unique Axial-Glide system for compact storage and precise cutting. While it offers robust power and durability, its heavy weight and lack of lighting features are notable trade-offs. It is best suited for professional woodworkers in small shops who prioritize precision over portability.
The DEWALT DWS779 is a heavy-duty, corded sliding compound miter saw designed for professional contractors requiring maximum cutting capacity. Its double-bevel design and high-torque motor excel at complex trim and wide lumber cuts. However, its significant weight and size make it less suitable for users with limited workshop space or those needing high portability.
