Having bought myself a fixer upper of a house, and also wanting to get back into some basic cabinet\furniture making I decided that I needed to buy a table saw. I don't have the room for a full size cabinet saw (or the budget) and I wanted something that I could fold up and store easily out of the way in my basement as well as pull up my basement stairs out into the yard.
After doing a lot of research I settled on this saw, and I'm really glad I did. It's clearly been engineered my people have used saws before and have put some thought into it. From the location of the push stick storage, which is easy to grab when needed, to the fence mechanism, as well as the easy set up and fine tuning instructions it comes with.
Construction wise, its very well built but also light enough that one person can easily manoeuvre it around. The stand is sturdy and easily folds up when not in use. There os no flex in the fence when locked in place, and the table is more than sold as well.
The dust collection is adequate, however as I mention below the extra dust port on the blade guard assembly requires a different size hose so I don't use that one. If you did use the guard port, it would probably be near 100% collection. With a shop vac hooked up it collects over 95% of the dust, with no fine dust getting into the air at all. Very nice for indoor use.
After about 6 months of regular use I've really only come up with a couple faults, which in themselves are definitely not enough to make me not want to buy this saw again. my only complaints are follows:
1) I wish the saw included a hose to go between the guard dust collection port, and the main under table one
2) I wish dewalt sold a table extension for it. As much as I love the fence mechanism, it makes it tricky to build your own table for it. So if they made one it's be awesome. This isn't a huge issue, as there are other ways around it
