This is my first Miter Saw so i have nothing to compare it to but i think that it is a great Miter Saw. Just to start off this saw costs 140$ at Lowe’s and i bought mine without a laser. A wise man once told me that the blade does that cutting and not the laser, and he wants to see where the actual thing that’s doing the actual cutting is going to actually cut.

Now back to the saw. it came ready to run right out of the box and all the different angles that i checked were right on. the saw has good power and great construction (not to mention the 5 year warranty). all of the major components are some sort of metal. Also one thing that i noticed was that all the set angles were cut into a sort of metal. on other saws in this price range had the stops cut into plastic. the dust collection isn’t that great and maybe only gets about 50% of the dust but as a woodworker i am not moving it around very often so i have the choice of hooking it up to a shop vac so the bag doesn’t matter much. i would buy this miter saw again if i had too or recommend it to anyone else who was looking for a 10” miter saw. if anyone wants anymore information regarding any of the saws features or components than just leave a message and i will send you back a message personally to your profile.

Looks great. Nice saw. That “some kind of metal” is probbobly aluminum, because its light and miter saws are made to be portable enough to carry around to a jobsite. Looks very nice. That will save you alot of time in cross cutting. None of the miter saws do to great with dust collection, thats jsut the way they are. At least they get what they get. :) with out it there would be %50 more dust on the floor so I guess I’ll look at that as a half glass full thing. Looks very nice, good pick.

First, I just noticed this site while doing some price and product research. I thought I would drop by and let all of you interested in this saw that Amazon has it on sale right now for only $99!

Second, LumberJocks, what a great site you guys have here. I am really impressed with both content and design!

I have been using the C10FCE, (not the 2) for some time now. Bought it when I needed a upgrade from my Ryobi 10”.
Big test was the long drop School House Regulator that needed all sorts of 22 1/2 deg. angles and wanted the grain to flow around. It did a great job.

The Ryobi is still around and used now as the outdoor, or travelling saw.
