Trust me, it is well worth it!
2006-03-15I have owned this saw for over 3 years now. It is a shame that I had paid the full introductory price when it had come out, but I wouldn't trade this saw for anything. I also own the complete 24V cordless line by Bosch. I own a small contractor buisness doing everything from kitchens, baths, additions, full house construction, to concrete work and everything in between. Not only is this saw worth it's weight in gold, but the entire 24V Bosch is worth the same. I can not write a good enough review for this item. It is so handy to set up and cut a few pieces of trim with such accuracy as my 12" Bosch Sliding Compound miter saw. In fact, I have found myself using this saw for just about every job, since I already have the case with my other cordless tools. I have trimmed out $750k houses with this saw, just set it up in every room that needs trimwork, hook it up to my shop vac and away I go with accurate miters. The only thing that I had wished this saw had was the dual compound feature, but I am used to turning crown over and cutting it the other way. The saw holds an accurate fence and the positive miter detents are right on! Again, it takes only 5 min. to pull the saw out, set it down, and begin cutting with no cords to drag around. It is the nearest replacement to a quality cordes miter saw you can ever have. I am truely convinced to forever puchase the old blue and red over the yellow and black any day. Bravo Bosch!

best buy yet
2006-03-03well ive had this saw for a month now. i couldnt be happier i install kitchens and bath cabinets everyday and use it everyday, the battery lasted longer than i thought it would before i had to recharge it. its so light my helper dosent complain anymore about dragging the saw around. between this and the bosch cordless jigsaw and the nail gun i hardly have to plug in anything anymore i read some of the reviews before i bought this last saw most were favorable some wernt but for what i do its great i guess if i did trim all day i would want 2 batteries but thats the only down side

Great saw for the intended design
2005-08-14First let me say I am not a contractor I am a weekend warrior but I do like doing my own project work.
I bought this saw about 2 months ago because I had a project to build a double set of outside stairs. The nearest power was 1/4 mile away and I don't own a generator.
This saw is very good. I was suprised by it power. The stairs I built were completely made from green treated lumber. I was able to cut 2x12 stair treads with no problem. Yes I had to flip the wood over and yes the wood was still wet. I was amazed. I also bought the 24 volt circular saw. It too exceeded my expectation. I also own the Corded Dewalt 12 inch compound miter. This saw can't do everything the Dewalt can do but you can't expect it to. For what it is worth I have not found a job it can't do yet.
I would highly recommend this saw to any one.

UNBELIEVABLE
2005-08-06TWO WORDS>>>>> WORKS GREAT
COULD NOT BELIEVE THE QUALITY IN THIS LIGHT WEIGHT SAW UNTIL I USED IT. NOT AS STRONG AS A CORDED SAW BUT DOES EVERYTHING YOU COULD ASK OF IT. EXCELLENT PRODUCT.

Awesome Miter Saw
2005-03-01I own a Craftsman Bungalow and have been restoring my kitchen, den, and family room. I have been trimming and installing window trim, baseboards, and door trim recently using the Bosch 3924 miter saw. I put in the fine tooth 60 tooth blade since day one and have been making buttery smooth cuts on quartersawn white oak. I have never felt that it ever lacked power or battery life which were concerns before I bought the saw. Bosch did a really good job on this line of tools. I also own the 24v circular and 2 14v drills. I am really happy with my Bosch cordless tools so far. I am looking forward to the 24v jig saw I just ordered. Going cordless is the way to go for home improvement projects. Are we ready for larger tools like portable cordless 10" table saws? I am if Bosch makes it.
