Makita LS0714 Quad 10 Amp 7-1/2-Inch Sliding Compound Miter saw Reviews
It's just plain convenient to own. This has become a very big part of my work, I have the Makita 12" compound but found that this is great for doing misc pick up work or smaller jobs when taking out the big dog is too much. It's really nice when you need to move alot from room to room as well as up and down stairs. This saw has plenty of power, nice brake system and is actually nice to have side by side on the job with the other saws so you don't need to keep changing one saws angle all the time. Cutting smaller trim on it is alot more comfortable as well compared to the 12".
I think that a table could have been a bit larger but my saw is mounted on a stand so it is a non-issue for me. but Makita makes blades in 7-1/2" size but thus far the supplied blade proved (about 25 bucks if purchased separately) to be very good. It gives you cuts up to 12" wide which are perfectly straight with no 'climbing' effect. At least that is how I am using it. Another possible detraction is that nobody(). But I have yet to find a perfect tool. Its sliding mechanism is extremely smooth with no play. This saw gives you cuts as smooth as glass in oak, pine and hard maple with almost no tearout on the bottom side.
Since it has only 2" of vertical capacity I believe that its primary usage is in cabinet making. Makita also could have provided two clamps for each side of the blade instead of just one. Out of the box the blade was square to the table and the fence.
