Precision, and Accuracy – In this category, we evaluated the accuracy of the miter saws, out of the box, and how easy it is to make adjustments.
Performance [Power / Speed Test] -We looked at cutting speed as an indicator of saw motor performance.
Run-time – Lots of pros think run-time is important. The performance evaluation took a very deep dive into the power of the saw motors and how well the saws managed repetitive cutting of framing lumber.
Features – An overall comparison of features and specifications.
Ergonomics – Ergonomics are really important to users and an important category to consider when purchasing any power tool. In addition to traditional ergonomics, we also included functionality in this category.
Dust Collection – Construction is a messy business and dust is one of the biggest evils in our industry.
Decibels – We evaluated the sound level in decibels
Price – Price is always an important factor in determining which saw is best for a user. We’ve included the current pricing found online for each of the saws “as-tested,” at the time of publication.
