Came with a free compact stand, which they built a wheeled cart around for bigger job sites alongside a dust extractor, and they added brackets so the stand also carries their cordless saw.

Reddit · r/Carpentry · 161 days ago

Pairs the cordless table saw with a Kapex, mobile dust extractor and stand as a compact, top notch setup for cabinet installs, while noting it is pricey.

Reddit · r/Carpentry · 162 days ago

Fine as a stationary primary setup, but heavy, large and needs lots of wall clearance, which makes it a poor fit for moving room to room on jobs.

Reddit · r/Dewalt · 355 days ago

After a kickback hit the rear guard, the blade pulled off-center toward the kerf plate; the clamp washer was warped and replacement parts did not fully fix the alignment.

Since a 2021 purchase the blade nut has loosened about four times, usually after the saw sat unused for days, though less severely than the original poster.

Reddit · r/Dewalt · 461 days ago

Heavy use, and while cutting trim the blade came loose for the first time; they tightened it hard and kept working.

Reddit · r/Tools · 529 days ago

About a decade in, a good portable jobsite saw with a really solid fence, used to build cabinets and picture frames.

Reddit · r/Tools · 529 days ago

Same model here: the special table coating resists corrosion and lets wood slide easily, but it scratches easily and is hard to maintain once worn.

Reddit · r/Tools · 529 days ago

Five years in, everything still works; holds true once squared and dialed in, good enough for cabinets and furniture, with the left and right slots slightly off parallel.

Reddit · r/Tools · 529 days ago

Worked it hard for 8 years, then passed it to a friend who still uses it for hobbies; had really good luck with it.

Reddit · r/Tools · 529 days ago

Paid $650 new for this exact saw and loves it.

Reddit · r/Tools · 529 days ago

On their second one after roughly 4-5 years; a daily workhorse for ripping framing lumber.

Reddit · r/Tools · 529 days ago

Going strong for 5 or 6 years and plenty accurate for their work, though not a cabinet saw.

Reddit · r/Tools · 529 days ago

A wonderful saw in their own use, and they consider the asking price a good deal.

Reddit · r/Tools · 529 days ago

Came new in a bundle with an XR drill/driver set, and they like it a lot.

Reddit · r/Tools · 529 days ago

Good for ripping trim, moldings and paneling, but large 3/4 inch sheets are awkward because the stand shifts when pushing them.

Reddit · r/woodworking · 550 days ago

Talked a used one down to $475; after only brief use making a featherboard they are happy with how it feels.

Reddit · r/woodworking · 551 days ago

Found odd wear marks on the stock blade at the first blade change on a saw bought new; unsure whether it is a blade defect or an arbor problem.

Reddit · r/woodworking · 556 days ago

Blade began touching the metal under the back of the throat plate, a frightening failure that led them to the recall thread.

Reddit · r/woodworking · 579 days ago

Fitted a soft start module to their saw following posted wiring details and reports it works great.

Reddit · r/Dewalt · 623 days ago

Saw with a 2022 date code has a severe blade wobble that a new blade did not fix; they expect no help from the maker and are considering replacing a part.

Reddit · r/Dewalt · 643 days ago

Two separate units developed a loose arbor nut after months of use, with the blade spinning on for a minute after shutoff; they want a refund and a different saw.

Reddit · r/Dewalt · 643 days ago

No loose-blade problem in a year of use and a great saw so far, though others' reports give them pause.

Reddit · r/Dewalt · 643 days ago

Seven years of dependable use with a dust collector, but the fence top has tilted out of square with no adjustment and a replacement costs about half the saw price, so they would not buy it again.

Reddit · r/Dewalt · 651 days ago

Handles everything they throw at it and made a fully cordless setup possible; it eats batteries, but they have plenty so it is not a big deal.

Reddit · r/woodworking · 664 days ago

Ended up buying it as a first table saw; with one good planed side it is accurate enough to rip boards for glue-ups.

Reddit · r/woodworking · 674 days ago

Previously owned the saw from the thread, found it badly out of square and got rid of it.

Reddit · r/woodworking · 675 days ago

Newly bought saw that would not calibrate square on both sides; the left side set up fine but the right was off, and they wondered whether it was a defect worth returning.

Reddit · r/woodworking · 700 days ago

Second-hand purchase a few years ago shows noticeable blade misalignment that follows the arbor; they suspect a bent arbor from its past use.

Reddit · r/woodworking · 755 days ago

Cuts thick stock and can be set up accurately without power issues, but it loses that accuracy quickly and is light enough that heavy boards push it around. Still fond of it.

Reddit · r/woodworking · 755 days ago

Cutting thick cherry with a thin-kerf blade trips the breaker about four times, though they suspect old-house wiring is partly to blame.

Reddit · r/woodworking · 755 days ago

Found the saw fine in general but did not trust it for ripping very thick stock, so used a circular saw and hand saw instead.

Reddit · r/Dewalt · 826 days ago

Easy to tuck into a shop corner, but they want a better fence with a way to attach featherboards for miter and strip cuts.

Reddit · r/Dewalt · 839 days ago

Stores it in a tiny multipurpose shop with the saw folded down so the counter top section can go in for glue ups, and asks about long-term harm from storing it that way.

Reddit · r/Tools · 858 days ago

Unit delivered damaged by a hard drop in shipping: cracked angle handle and blade scrapes found during setup, so it went back to the retailer for a replacement.

Reddit · r/woodworking · 858 days ago

Spent four years with it believing their woodworking was off because cuts were never accurate, and the problems vanished on switching to a cabinet saw.

Reddit · r/woodworking · 858 days ago

Cuts fine out of the box for cabinets and boxes in plywood, pine and 2x stock, but is not a precision machine and an upgrade to a cabinet saw is planned.

Reddit · r/woodworking · 858 days ago

Previously owned it and found it very stable with no play in the housing, selling it only to get a stiffer top.

Reddit · r/woodworking · 858 days ago

New saw had play in the motor housing and a blade off parallel after setup, fixed by shimming; support calls and a warranty claim went unanswered, though the saw still cuts well.

Reddit · r/Tools · 859 days ago

Same saw model at home, and it is very heavy; would worry about alignment or warped parts after a hard drop in shipping.

Reddit · r/Tools · 886 days ago

Went with it over a Bosch and reports zero regrets after a couple of years, saying it does everything needed and more.

Reddit · r/woodworking · 953 days ago

Their saw has the same sagging throat plate lip that catches material; the only workaround found so far is blue tape, which does not always work.

Reddit · r/woodworking · 954 days ago

Throat plate sags below the plastic lip and catches workpieces; also needed a warranty claim over the flip-down support, and for the price they expected more.

Reddit · r/Dewalt · 970 days ago

Saw itself is within tolerance and cuts straight after squaring the blade, but the rolling stand sits about one degree out of level.

Reddit · r/woodworking · 1037 days ago

Added a soft start module to their saw and says the wiring instructions worked perfectly; notes the module has an adjustment screw for the softest start.

Reddit · r/Dewalt · 1155 days ago

The flip-down fence piece would not lay flat in either position despite adjustments; the maker sent a replacement fence under warranty after they sent photos.

Reddit · r/Dewalt · 1155 days ago

Everyone who uses their saw loves it; they think the fence problem in the thread is a defective unit.

Reddit · r/woodworking · 1263 days ago

Four of these in use; the arbor that accepts a dado stack is the biggest perk.
