Amazon.com Product Description
A serious tool capable of making a wide range of cuts, the DeWalt DW716 double-bevel 12-inch compound miter saw makes use of a 15.0 amp, 3,600 RPM motor to ensure the power, durability, and versatility that professional craftsmen and women need. Eleven positive stops on the adjustable stainless steel detent plate and a cam lock miter handle with detent override make all the most frequently used miter cuts easy to achieve. Furthermore, DeWalt's exclusive back fence makes it possible to cut two by ten dimensional lumber at 90-degree angles, and to cut two by eight lumber at 45 degrees, while the unique double bevel design allows you create both left and right bevels from 0 to 48 degrees. Positive stops in commonly used positions make it easy to change the position of the saw instead of flipping the material to give you more complete control. A machined base fence support helps guarantee accuracy, while the innovative engineering behind the gearbox and belt-drive increases vertical cutting capacity. In order to help you take advantage of this capacity, the saw's extra-tall fences leave space to cut nested crown moldings up to 6-5/8 inches and base molding up to 6-1/2 inches in a vertical position up against the fence. And you don't have to worry about these fences interfering with bevel cuts, because they slide neatly out of the way. This fully-featured miter saw is relatively lightweight at just 44 pounds, and it offers a built-in carrying handle that makes it easy to move from job to job. It's also noteworthy that this saw is designed for use with the DW7187 DeWalt adjustable miter saw laser system (NOT INCLUDED), which makes the cutting path visible for improved accuracy and easier handling. Included with this saw is a durable carbide blade, a blade wrench, and dust bag to get you started.

 Poor fence design July 26, 2010

Harry homeowner might be fine with this saw, but as a cabinet shop we are not. The fence design is such that it will not stay square over time with heavy use. Both sides are molded out of the same piece, so there is no re-adjusting when the whole thing bends over time. After many bad experiences, I am finally done buying anymore yellow tools.

Right out of the box it works great! No adjustment necessary and I am tickled with the shipping as well.

I want to think this is a good saw. I've read all the reviews and I'm excited about the features and cababilities. My problem is that I bought one at Home Depot a month ago, opened it up and it looked like someone had washed the table with a wet rag. The blade was new and there was no dust, but inside the plastic slot where the blade decends, there was a '3' written in red marker.
The saw cut well but the motor buzzed and I had a bad feeling so I took it back. Tool guy had to OK the return and agreed that it was sketchy, said he'd never seen that before. Another Home Depot just dropped the price $50 to $349 so I tried again. Brought it home, looked new, but the blade guard drags when you lower the blade and there is a red 'S' written inside the blade slot now. I don't know what's going on. I'm hoping this saw is new and not refurbished. Not sure what Dewalt is up to, but beware of ordering this one online.
I got mine much cheaper March 31, 2010

This is the saw I decided to buy so I shopped around for the best price. The Home Depot has it for $399.00 but Lowes sells it for $339.00 SO I went to The Home Depot and they called Lowes to check the price and then beat it by 10% and I got the saw for $305.10. I think I got a great saw at a great price.
What can I say, it's... it's incredible! March 11, 2010

I've had 10-inch miter saws but this is my first 12-inch and wow, what a difference it makes. This DW716 slices through anything -- wood, steel, PVC, copper, even stones and brick. Like others, I had to spend about 30 minutes calibrating it out of the box, but that also provided overall familiarity with the tool. These generally sell for 20% less at your local hardware store when on sale than here at Amazon, so shop around. Going from 10 to 12 inches brings only one gripe: the cost of blades is about 50% more. Yet this 15-amp baby has so much torque it really pays off. If you don't own a good miter saw, rob your wife or your mom to get one. The speed and accuracy alone will pay off with your first project. It makes carpentry much easier.
