Tester Comments
The Craftsman finished in the middle of the pack in power testing but had very low vibration. It came with tons of great extras, including a folding outfeed table, and fence and miter gauge storage; it has a great tool-free blade guard. It had poor dust collection. | Price

The Delta provides average power but with good overall performance and very low vibration. It’s the only model that came with side support legs, and it had the best instructions and superb dust collection. We had trouble with the blade guard. | Price

This saw packs great power in a portable package. It’s a well-thought-out machine with easy blade guard adjustment. It exhibited moderate vibration during power testing, and its open bottom meant that more dust ended up on the floor. | Price

The second-slowest in the group, and though it improved with a thin-kerf blade, we still tripped the thermal overload. Adjusting the blade guard was easy. It had poor dust collection. | Price

The overall favorite, this model combines the best power with the best price. Cabinet and castings are very solid and it has a great fence. Average dust collection. It comes with no accessories and its blade guard and its switch were not user friendly. | Contact

This model was the slowest in the group, but improved when we tried it with a thin-kerf blade. It was the easiest to set up, had the best dust collection, and has a few innovative features. Its blade guard and adjustment cranks were cumbersome. | Price
