I bought this same saw about a year ago at Lowes, I paid something like $150 for it. It's a great saw, really smooth and comfortable to use. Works great for cutting trim boards, but I've also used it as a chop saw to cut 2x6's, it doesn't bog down one bit when cutting larger stock. It's a little heavy, but to me that just means it's built better. It's also quiet compared to other miter saws I've used. This is definitely a great deal! I'm almost tempted to buy a second as a backup!
Great entry level miter saw!

Reviewer: KWP,
Received the Hitachi C10FCE2 yesterday after a longer wait than usual from Amazon. But still within the window they specify.

Assembled the saw accessories in about 5 minutes (flip over fence, rear stabilizer bar, and hold down) and took it out to my shop. First up was a standard pine 2x4. Plugged in the saw and gave the trigger a pull. The first thing I noticed as a nice soft start mechanism, very nice. The blade started spinning and had little to no vibration. I love the horizontal anti vibe handle. Pulled the saw down and cut through the 2x4 like a hot knife through butter. I was impressed at this price point. Next up were some miter cuts. 52 degrees left and right, no problem. The indicator is very thin which makes for more exacting measurements, again very nice. Next up, bevel. Went to 45 degrees, gave the handle a tug and i had a clean 45 degree bevel. Checked the angles and they were spot on, right from the factory. I cut 2x6's, stacked 2 2x4's, and stacked 2 2x6's and it cut them without any problems or bogging down. This saw will cut 4x4 posts no problem at 90 degrees.

With the 5 year warrantee and a saw that performs like this you can't go wrong at $99.00 with free shipping.
Value saw for the homeowner...does the job

Picked this up for 99 bucks (price fluctuates often so just throw it into your shopping cart and wait for that deal to come up). Bought an Irwin laser guide for about 20 bucks and I'm ready for my job. This one is made in China (not Japan) but my expectations are for the occasional homeowner use, not for contractor duty and I am very pleased. Sure beats the plastic Ryobis sold at HD for the same price. Cheap Craftsman miter with the wrongly aligned stick on angle guage (are you kidding me) don't compare too. Best comparison is the entry level Dewalt but that one comes in at at 200 so this is half price for about the same performance. Great for cutting 2x4 and wood laminate panels (though you have to flip the board for the final cut) without motor bogging down. That's where the laser guide helps with perfect cuts. 40 tooth blade trims true, great for being free. My 80 tooth laminate blade is almost the cost of the saw. Yes.. the dust bag is pretty much useless, it catches just the ultrafine particles, all the rest of the debris is around you.
All it said it would be and more.

This saw is unusually well made, sturdy, powerful, accurate. I am a retired building contractor and this is one of the best values I've seen.
great comparative saw and best amazon price.

This was my first miter/chop saw and I looked around alot before buying it. I compared Dewalt 723, Craftsman and couple of other models from home depot.

Dewalt was twice as expensive ($209) and Craftsmans from Sears was pretty darn cheap and althoug you could buy a sliding compound miter for less that $200, the quality wasn't good. There were many complaints about cheap plastic parts and even cheaper angle/cut quality. Other Ryobi and Makita were similar to Hitachi and Dewalt, but werent' that popular and couldn't find many reviews.

After all this analysis and talking to couple of contractors, they suggested that Hitachi is equally good and I ended up ordering one from amazon.

I arrived in 2 days (with free shipping) and since the blades are new you could you use it to cut moulding right out of the box. But may be when you cut 2x4s for few months, you might need a newer blade with more teeths. The construction of the saw itself is strong and it comes with few accessories.

Dust bag isn't very useful as it captures only part of the dust, but that's true with all other brands as well. I haven't tried mounting it on a stand, but have heard people complain about incompatibility with Dewalt miter stand.

Used it couple of time for miter and compound miter, and all the angles were perfect with fine cuts.

I highly recommed this saw.

BTW, its cheap @ $125, but the price here fluctuates alot and I was able to get it for $99 + taxes + free shipping.

A quality Hitachi product.

Nice saw for a nicer price. Picked it up for 99 with free shipping. Used for a few light - moderate duty jobs and it has performed flawlessly. Solid saw with a great warranty.
