The DeWalt DWS520 also has a simple to use depth adjustment and bevel, but lacks a positive stop at 45 degrees, meaning you need to break out a square to get an accurate 45 degree bevel. The SP6000J boasts a -1 to 48 degree bevel range and it’s ease of use makes it a close second in this category. Makita kept the saw simple, but packed it with useful and versatile settings. The only criticism from us is that the back bevel locks, generally a rare cut anyway, are tucked away, being located between the motor housing and the baseplate. The blade change only requires one more step than that of a traditional circular saw. Makita has a straightforward approach to its adjustments that is simple and very easy to use.
The company makes precision woodworking tools, so although the saw is much more complicated than the competitors, it’s ease of use and intuitive controls and adjustments makes it shine in this category. Like most Festool products there is a lot going on with dials, adjustments, etc. The Festool TS 55 REQ, with competitive bevel range (-1 to 47 degrees), positive stops, micro-adjustable depth, clear front-of-cut viewing, a unique waste-side splinter guard, and the easiest blade changes of all the saws, the Festool wins for all-around ease of use and advanced features.
