Totally Smooth and Sweet,
I’ve had the no-light model for 2 years. The newer model has minor upgrades (i.e. front handel smaller). I bought this saw because its table rotates smoothly, and it still does! No stop or bevel problems ever! The motor has never appeared under powered but I use sharp quality blades. I did not give this 5 stars as I think the RH fence should be included. I added it but it’s pricey. I agree that a quick release clamp would be nice too. My table saw now gets much less use, and I find little reason to own a RAS now. I too suspect something fishy about the bad review, could it be from a competitor’s sale person. I question a review when someone implies they had problems from the get-go, and failed to return the product. Makita tuff, reliable tools for a quality minded professional! Just picked up their 7 1/4 Hypoid circular saw to replace my worm drive.

Let me get this straight……,
You and three of your friends own this saw and you all have problems with it?? Did you all buy it on the same day? Didn’t you talk to your “friends” before you bought your saw? If a friend of mine bought a [crummy] saw, I would not run out and buy one. I bought this saw last fall and used it to finish an attic in 1×8 pine carsiding. This saw flawlessly handled all of the work, including the trim. The saw is a joy to use and ALL of the movements of the base and the bevel are smooth as silk, even today after several more jobs. While I am not a pro, I just do this work on the side, I have been hauling this thing all over the place and have not treated it kindly at times, and it has held up great. I did saw into the metal fence a bit on a steep angle, my fault as I forgot to move the high portion of the fence out of the way. The blade seems to have held up fine, even after slicing through a half inch of the fence. I do not have the light on my model, but everything else about this saw is all I had hoped for. Don’t beleive the reviewer about the grinding, he and his three friends are either fictional or complete idiots.
