DEWALT Chop Saw, Quick-Change, 14-Inch, Old Model (D28715)

It's a good saw.

I bought this from Amazon with help from a gift card I had received. The price was very comparable to Home Depot. The first and only chop saw I had owned was a tool sale special. It lasted about 8 years. Great value for the money. Not that easy to work with. I took this out of the box and cut some 1 1/2" square tubing. I changed between the 90 degree and 45 degree cuts with ease. Much better than the standard saw I had used before. Each swap was quick and easy. Usually I would try to cut each angle separately and then change to the other to finish all cuts. This was so fast and easy to change back and forth that I cut each piece as needed. I am a home hobbyist and wanted a durable chop saw that was going to last. I feel very confident in purchasing this saw. One of the good features of the quick change back stop is being able to move it forwards and backwards on the table with ease. This is especially useful when your blade gets smaller. Some of those cuts I couldn't make with a smaller blade, I think I can now. The blade that comes with the saw is great. Fast cuts and high quality. Due to a mistake on my part, I ruined the first blade. I didn't have my metal secured and it slipped and ruined the blade. Nothing to do with the saw, just me being stupid. Changing the blade was fast and simple. No tools required. Unscrew the knob and change the blade. The knob clicks when it is tight enough going on. Overall I would highly recommend this saw. I was going to buy it at Home Depot, but a friend gave me a gift card to Amazon and I used it with some money to buy the saw. Great purchase, quick delivery and it was free shipping. Actually cost me less than at Home Depot.

This is a real money maker. It operates smoothly and is pretty fast.

worked ok until it gets hot. then it wants to keep stopping.. other than that it got the job done.

Its great my husband loved it.

I have never seen a chop saw of that quality. And I have worked with that kind of equipment for years. Thank you.

Item as described online. Seems to be well made and cuts well. Original blade is ok, but they have a little better blade, use it when replacing.

We used a Makita metal chop-saw for a quite while (having more or less stolen it from our neighbor) before buying this DeWalt (and returning his Makita at last). The DeWalt is every bit the tool as the Makita, and it cuts through 2-inch steel tube easily. A ton of heat is generated cutting steel, and neither of the chop saws really blast through the bigger tubes, but both cut it smoothly, safely and relatively quickly. For the tube sizes we cut, the angle-cut support on the DeWalt is not very useful; it helps on smaller angle iron and the like, but for big tubes we do not find it helpful. The DeWalt blades are long lasting (although we do not cut anything other than mild steel and some aluminum). The blade change system on the DeWalt is even easier than the Makita, and takes less than a minute to swap out a blade. Get great eye protection and work in a fire-safe area: You are going to throw some sparks. But this has been a great saw and we have used it extensively.

Nice saw, has handled decent material sizes pretty handily. One note is that for beveled and mitre cuts, the fence is held in place only by a locking cam lever and has no presets. Best to keep a square near this one at all times!

Great product
