I have been shopping for a miter saw to add to my home workshop. I looked at every brand put there, but knowing I did not want to spend half a grand on a big name brand saw, I poured over what was available in the $200-$300 dollar range.
I examined the specs and read countless amounts of feedback on many different saws, but in the end I decided to take a chance on the Tacklife 12" sliding compound miter saw.
I was so glad I did! And right from the outset, I was impressed by this company. First, unlike some companies, they made sure to securely package their saw for shipping.
The box was sturdy, there was styrofoam cutouts inside that made sure to hold the saw firmly in place no matter how roughly the box was handled in shipping.
I cant tell you all how many times I have ordered some big expensive item in the mail and recieved a box that was half open because the shipper failed to properly tape it up before it left the warehouse.
Not the case here! About the saw. There was very little setup required. Immediately there were several things I noticed that I really loved about this saw.
First. the extensions on each side. They pull out a good ways, making the surface of your saw able to accommodate a six foot board with ease.
I really liked how wide the extensions are, and the fact that they are built to set on a flat surface- not just hang out suspended in mid air. You really will appreciate that when cutting long, wide boards.
The saw was also accurate right out of the box. I used an angle positioned flat against the fence to determine how accurate a straight cut would be, and I was amazed that it was spot on- with NO adjusting on my part!
The saw has good power, is not too loud, and slides really well. I havent even bothered to use the laser. I just bring the saw blade down and line it up with my cut line before each cut, and I get a perfect cut every time.
I will say that the blade is average at best, and if you plan to do alot of cutting- buy a better blade with 80 or 96T. The best thing about the saw? It has to be the clamp down arm.
I have NEVER seen a better design than on this saw. Dewalt, Rigid, Hitachi, Ryobi- all those other brands have what is referred to as "pressure clamps".
And they are practically WORTHLESS! The reason is that there is nothing anchoring the clamp to the actual saw base. So you go and clamp it down on your piece of wood relying on gravity and other mystical forces to hold your board down tight as you cut.
Problem is- they never work! Most everyone I know has just given up on using them completely and is left to hold down the board with one hand while cutting with the other.
