What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this sliding miter saw for exceptional cutting accuracy, powerful performance, and intuitive design. Most highlight precise, clean cuts within a tenth of a degree, with the dual bevel and sliding mechanism enabling wider board cuts and eliminating repositioning in tight spaces. Reviewers consistently describe the build as rugged and reliable, calling it a workhorse that delivers outstanding value. Many find setup straightforward with smooth operation and quick adjustments. A few note the considerable weight requires a stand, and some mention the included blade is basic. Overall, customers consider this a worthwhile investment that significantly enhances both DIY and professional work.

Excellent Saw and Stand Combo

Would Recommend

Accurate out of the box saw with logical instructions. Initial starts require extra attention as blade gets up to full RMP speed.

Heavy to move but sturdy.

Would Recommend

I have been waiting for the day I could add this saw to my tool collection. It’s amazing. I got the stand for it too and I look for more chances to go to my shop.

Why in the world does this have a Laser

Would Recommend

At this price point Why would any good company not put a Laser as standard feature. how you make accurate cut without one. I have a cheap Roybi 10 inch under $175 dollars and it have laser. Shame on you DEWALT. This model Should not be in your product line. I should have purchased another brand.

Awesome Saw

Would Recommend

Lowes included the DWX723 heavy duty stand with the saw so it was a no brainer to go for the DWS779 instead of the DWS780. The higher fence and XPS light wasn’t worth the difference especially since the DWX723 stand was included (a $250 value). It was accurate right out of the box. I have all kinds of tools to check for accuracy as I do woodworking on the side. Well worth the cost on sale and would do it again.
