Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-07-27 Summary: DeWalt Miter Saw ... I have owned two DeWalt miter saws. The DW718 has the capabilities to be the best miter saw on the market. I like every aspect of this saw. The motor seems to run slower than my other DeWalt miter saw but it can cut anything you put its way. I like the LED light system for the extra $59. Well worth it. First thing i did was upgrade the blade. People complain about the blade, however any real woodworker would never use the blade a saw came with. I like Freud's blades personally. It is like buying a 4x4 and keeping the ...more
[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-05-21 Summary: Great saw ... I needed another miter saw with a larger cutting capacity-slider. I was going in to buy the Makiata. Carefully studying several other sliders on display,I was more impressed with the Dewalt,especially the head play and more smoother action compared to the others. I do own and use a radial arm saw, an excellent machine if set up and used properly like any device. The slider is based on the radial arm in a portable package. The Dewalt was on sale, great price,so I purchased it with the lazer attachment. The lazer installed ...more

Editorial Reviews — ... Review | It’s hard to imagine anything DeWalt could do to improve this saw. As with it little siblings, the DW716 and DW715, the feature at the top of our list is the fantastic miter detent override, allowing you to compensate for a world that just isn’t square all the time. Normally, setting a 44.7-degree miter would leave you with a fight on your hands with regular detents, because of that annoying tendency saws have to snap in when you get too close. But with the integrated override, you can cut as close...more
Factory-Reconditioned DEWALT DW716R 15 Amp Double-Bevel Compound Miter Saw
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-04-07 Summary: Great Saw Great Price ... This is a great saw and the reconditioned one I purchased looked completely new. So far works very well. Cutting crown molding is a piece of cake with the high back fence and crown stop (purchased separately). I've also cut everything from a 2x4 to a 2x10 with ease. Only thing that would have been nice is if the saw came with DEWALT DW7082 Vertical Clamp (purchased separately). Overall very satisfied and highly recommend. ...more

[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-01-12 Summary: Good Saw, Good Service by Amazon ... I purchased this saw to crosscut 2x4's while building some shelves and then to begin some trim projects in the house. I am by no means a pro, but this saw has worked great for me and what I have been working on. On a customer service note, this unit is the second saw that Amazon shipped to me. The first one started smoking after 10 cuts and I quit running it. I was upset - this is the biggest on-line purchase that I have made, but Amazon was fantastic. After an email to them that evening, I had a replacement saw on ...more
Editorial Reviews — ... Amazon.com | This comes pretty darned close to being the ideal jobsite saw. Heading the list of features we love is the great miter detent override, allowing you to compensate for a world that just isn’t square all the time. Normally, you’d have a fight on your hands with regular detents because of that annoying tendency saws have to snap into the detent when you get too close. But built into the cam lock miter handle is a detent override, and you can cut as close to a detent as you need to without slipping...more
