I just saw this this morning. Amazon.com is selling the Dewalt DW718 for $419.75 with free shipping. If anyone is in the market for a new miter saw this is a pretty good deal. http://www.amazon.com/DEWALT-DW718-H...179066&sr=1-30

I am looking for another miter saw. Currently have a 12" bosch non sliding. That is a good deal but there are alot of bad reviews on amazon for them. Anyone have opinions on this saw? Thanks

They alsro have the Hitachi 12" sliding monster on sale as well for $450.

I'm still waiting for an chance to grab a deal on the new Milwaukee 12".

Well guess I should have snatched one up yesterday cause today they are back to 600 bucks. The hitachi is also 600 today. They do have a hitachi C12RSH for 389. Think the hitachi C12LSH just has more bells and whistles?

I read alot of bad reviews on the dewalt 718 so maybe it's a good thing I didn't snatch one up? My current saw is a bosch 12" non slider and I'm happy with it but would like to get a slider for more cutting capacity. Also have a bosch table saw that I love so maybe I'll try and wait for the bosch 12" slider to go on sale someday.

I read alot of past posts and other reviews on all the sliding miter saws and seems like every saw has some people that don't like it.
