Bosch CM12SD 12-Inch Miter Saw Review

I've used many miter saws in my career.

In fact, the first one I ever took on a job was a hand-powered one my father-in-law lent me. It was a Stanley saw that had a back saw that fit in two cast-iron guides. It was not bad, but you sure had to hold wood trim tight to get great cuts.

Decades ago, I got my first motorized miter saw. I can't remember the brand, but what a great improvement over the Stanley saw.

The Bosch CM12SD 12-inch miter saw is light years ahead of my first motorized saw and you can't even compare it to the Stanley saw.

This saw is double bevel.

CONS:

This saw is heavy with a capital H.

This saw is not for the casual weekend user, it's made for a pro user.

Summary: I really liked testing this saw. It made very accurate cuts. The visibility of the blade was excellent.

This is a saw you want to put in a workshop and leave it there. It's not one you want to take in and out of the back of a pickup truck each day at the job site unless you are trying to bulk up to be a wrestler for the WWE. CLICK HERE to buy a Bosch miter saw, including this one.
