Looking to upgrade from my Hitachi CF8. Have narrowed my choices down to the ; DeWalt DW708 Bosch 4410 Hitachi C10 CFSH Makita LS1030 Pop. WWing magazine did a pretty good comparison in a recent issue. But they did not include the DeWalt as it is a 12"er. Anybody care to share there comments on the DeWalt and/or the others ? TIA Without some input on the DeWalt I will hold off my purchase till I can here more. Thanks much.

I've had the DW 708 and LOVED THAT SAW... until it got ripped off... I now have a Bosch 4412 12" slider that is easier to use with up-front controls for everything.
I think you'd be happy with the DeWalt, or either the 10 or 12" Bosch... Having used both, I would give a *slight* nod to the Bosch unit because the controls are easier to use and the miter detent stops feel, to me, more positive.
YMMV,
I have the DW708 and really like it. Since it's a 12" slider, it has about as much capacity as you'll see in a miter saw. I bought a refurb and saved about $100 off the new price. Look for the DW708R model number.
Same here, same here. Look to Tool King of Denver

Dewalt DW708 also. Very happy, but it is a beefy mother to lug around. Easy to adjust and stays on mark even after being moved, but lugging it is no fun. Think CMS-SUV, wish I got one.
