Mastercraft Dual-Bevel Sliding Compound Mitre Saw

Our son is a carpenter apprentice & has been wanting this saw for so long now. We got it on sale & will give it to him for Christmas!!!

I purchased this miter saw last year and can't say enough about it. Let's me do precision cuts nd the dual bevel feature cuts my cutting time in half !

bought this May long weekend on sale 40% off, and it works amazingly! its not too too heavy considering what it can do! It cuts smoothly, i thought i would have to sand down the edges after but didnt have to! i love it! only thing is i wish it came with a rolling workstation or at least one on the side you can buy that 1) matches it and 2) is a perfect match for it. other than that, its great!

For the price I paid when it was on sale at 50% off, this saw does the job, very well. Considering what it can cut, it is comparable to a much more expensive saw. The only problem I've come across so far is the laser gets dirty after a few days of use. Also, the blade that it comes with isn't great. Had it sharpened and it made this saw almost faultless. Would recommend this saw to anyone not using it for commercial use, but for a DIY'er, it's great!

I'm on my 4th return in a week for this product. 1st return was a broken bevel clip, 2nd was the exchange given to me was a used saw, and I mean REALLY used! 3rd return was due to the saw guard being out of alignment. The guard guide kept slipping off. With the cuts I have made it does a nice smooth cut. Laser Line and Light is a bonus. My 2 grips about this The Extension Wings are weak and the screws to hold them in are not that effective. Hope they build them in with the next model and make the saw and wings all one piece. As mentioned in other posts the bevel lock is flawed. Mine became so loose that the clip just flopped around. I took the bevel bolt off the back, and the metal clip that holds the bolt in place. , Tightened both bolts up and loosened it just enough with the clip so the bevel would move. All I do now is lift the clip to loosen, down to lock. No pulling the clip or etc .... I hope they fix this. OR at least add it in the manual. Overall I was disappointed with doing all the exchanges, but with the right one you'll be happy with it. My advice - Check it all out before you take it home. Ask the sales guys to go over the product with you to make sure everything functions as it should. Spend the time to make sure everything is aligned correctly, and get to know the product before making cuts.
