Dewalt 15 Amp 12 in. Double Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw at HD runs $599 and looks decent with good reviews. Ridgid had some kind of blade wobble issue at some point but may have been corrected now. Any suggestions or favorites? Rusty, go play with the Dewalt in store and let me know your thoughts.

If you like Dewalt, go for it. Don't forget that you need to buy the table for it too. I have a Craftsman that I bought about 4 months before they closed. Right now, I'm making termite food with all the wood I'm cutting for the bathroom remodeling job.
