Good value, very capable mitre saw
"This is a good deal especially with the stand. The saw is well made although I found the fence wasn't exactly square to the table. Plus trench cuts are only for rough work - there's too much flex in the bars for anything really accurate. I think most SCMS's suffer with this.
But the other features of the saw make up for any deficiencies. The stops are accurate; the controls for the bevel settings at the front are handy; the hold down is very capable (but a little awkward to use); the built in extension tables are great and flat to the table. Even the adjustable handle is good. And most importantly it does what it's supposed to do, with ease and it's accurate.
Beware - it's massive and heavy so make sure you have room in your workshop!
The stand is well made too. but again heavy and it's tricky mounting the saw on it. But still very useful for outside work particuarly."

Bosch GCM 10SD (with Bosch Legstand)
"I think I compared just about every SCMS on the market before eventually biting the bullet and buying the GCM10SD. Have to admit some reviews had been a bit off-putting especially re. weight and accuracy. There's no mistaking, it is heavy and BIG. However, with a little trial and error you find the best way to carry it. Once set up on the legstand it's a joy to use - and I leave the legstand brackets attached all the time so it's a simple matter to just drop it back onto the stand and lock in place.
Regrets? None - but bear in mind it's not the saw to choose if you want to be continually carrying it around from room to room but it is ideal for setting up in one position for the day."
