Accuracy dependent upon thicker kerf premium blades
4 Stars
Accuracy dependent upon thicker kerf premium blades
I purchased this saw as a direct replacement for my 12 year old Makita LS1013 10” compound slider. Due to some inherent design flaws in the Makita I was never able to maintain consistent alignment between the fence and indexing mechanism.Whenever a project required a true 90 degree end cut I would invariably move over to my table saw and sled.When I began the search for a miter saw to replace the Makita, my #1 criteria was angular accuracy. I ruled out all “sliders” since all such mechanisms introduce one more mechanical element that can possibly affect accuracy. Also, I don’t really require the additional cutting capacity sliders provide.Upon receipt of the DeWalt 716XPS I made several test cuts in different types and sizes of hardwood as well as poplar and pine.Invariably on the larger pieces the angular accuracy would diminish. I was finally able to attribute the source of the problem to the utility grade 60 tooth thin kerf blade which was included with the saw. I have since purchased a thicker kerf 100 tooth “premium” blade manufactured by Amana and the accuracy is remarkably improved.Additionally I have replaced the plastic table insert with a zero clearance wood insert. The thin and flimsy rubber “funnel” for source capturing saw dust was also replaced with a larger and thicker rubber funnel which does not collapse when connected to a dust collector. I have also added a PVC “elbow” to the exhaust end of the dust collection tube in order to control and direct the flow downward and into my dust vacuum device.My main complaint is that the table clamp is virtually useless. It is mechanically weak and much too far removed from the blade to safely clamp the work. The operator has no choice but to place his or her hand dangerously close to the blade in order to prevent the workpiece from moving during the cut.A “soft start” motor would also be a welcome feature.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic saw.
Reviewed in the United States on June 21, 2017
I should start this review off by stating that I use this saw for more precision work than rough carpentry. I am more interested in accurate angles and tight miters than raw power. Luckily with this saw, I got both. First, when removing the saw from the box you get a sense of quality immediately. The saw was well packaged, almost to a fault. If they had thrown this thing off the back of the UPS truck without slowing down I think it would have been just fine. The saw's overall appearance and finish are great. The machined aluminum bed is bright, clean and smooth and the angle dial at the bottom is large and easy to see. Nothing wiggles or flexes and the saw has considerable heft that induces confidence but wont break your back. If you're doing finish work. I would recommend cutting through some stock to get most of the yellow off of the blade that will smear on your initial cuts. A minor inconvenience as this could be sanded off as well. While I thought that the XPS system would be a silly gimmick (at the time of purchase the XPS was cheaper than the regular model), I was pleasantly surprised. This system is dead on accurate. You have to get the blade close to what you're cutting to cast a defined shadow, but you'd likely be doing this anyways for a precision marking. The motor pulls strong and goes through hardwoods like oak, walnut and ash with ease. If all you're looking for is a durable job site saw that can blow through 2x4s like they aren't even there, this saw will work for you. If you're looking for a saw that can make perfect 45s on that rosewood jewelry box, this saw will work for you. Basically, whatever your purpose, I can attest that this saw will work for you.
