I have a Makita miter saw and it’s great, but the idea of buying a same brand because I liked one of their other products did not work out. To compare the saws we’re looking for how much blade speed each saw has under load, and also how much the amp draw increases under load.

The drop in blade speed is fairly small ranging from 6% for Hitachi and Ridgid, 7% for Makita and SawStop, 9% Bosch, 11% DEWALT, 14% SkilSaw, and 24% for the Delta. We used the Freud calibration plate on each of the test saws to measure runout.

I bought one as my first big power tool purchase about 5 years ago. It’s been fantastic, and the biggest thing about it for me had been the ease of keeping the fence parallel to the blade. It was square out of the box and it has remained so since.
