Bosch's 10-inch Worksite table saw might just be the best of the current bunch. Benchtop table saws--which weigh 60 to 100 pounds and are light enough for one person to carry from the truck to the job site--have increased in popularity in recent years. They set up easily on a workbench or sawhorses and generally feature stable components that make them great for pros and serious hobbyists alike. Although at 60 pounds the Bosch is lighter than any other saw in its class, this saw is no lightweight. It sports a die-cast undercarriage and powerful 4.4-horsepower, 15 amp motor--burly components that make it a serious, albeit slight, contender. Conveniently, the Bosch comes ready to use right out of the box; we were making cuts about 10 minutes after the UPS delivery. Plus, it's the only benchtop table saw with an arbor lock, so mounting the blade is a one-wrench affair (less chance for busted knuckles). The wrench--like all those that come with Bosch tools--is forged, rather than stamped, and so there are no sharp edges that dig into your hand during blade changes. It's a small detail, but one that matters and one that's typical of the attention to detail paid by Bosch engineers.

A flip of the paddle-style on/off switch initiates the soft-start electronics, which ramp the blade up to speed quickly without any disturbing jolt. The electronic feedback, popular on many saws today, keeps the blade turning at a constant speed, no matter what the load. The fence is the heart of any table saw and we found Bosch's to be a beauty. It's well machined and locks securely and accurately to the table. The cam-lock handle is padded, seats flush, and feels good to use. Like the comparable DeWalt saw, the Bosch features an extendable fence that makes it easy to rip four-by-eight panel material. It feels solid and slides smoothly, and the scales are easy to read. (There's even a built-in magnifying glass to cut down on the squint factor.) As with all the new Bosch tools, wrenches and removable items store nicely onboard the saw. The fence snaps into a holder on the side of the saw and stays put, and the miter gauge slides into a slot on the front of the tool--yet another small detail that we appreciate. The bottom line? The Bosch is a powerful saw that handles big stock without bogging down. --Mark McDonald ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars The Will to Power
This is truly a magnificent benchtop table saw, well-deserved of the awards it has won. I spent hours browsing on-line reviews to determine which portable table saw to purchase, and the Bosch topped every list. The folding stand is excellent quality, very sturdy, and allows for drop-in mounting of the table saw. Despite the light weight of the saw, there is no need to bolt the unit to the stand for a sturdy, rock-solid fit. The rear outfeed was designed with two grooves on the back end (as shown in the picture) that accept 1 x 2's, allowing you to extend the rear outfeed to virtually any length!

Of most importance with this saw is its exceptional power. With the stock blade, I was able to rip through Armstrong laminate flooring like butter. This is a task my Dewalt 705S miter has an extreme time with, even with a laminate-specialized blade (though it's a different style of cut).

Thanks to the soft-start and electronic feedback, the table saw doesn't need to constantly run at full power. This provides a very quiet operation, and is much safer than many other portable saws on the market -- I'm sure this even extends the motor life. Soft-start is a key feature when working on my 15-amp circuits. Unlike my miter, the Bosch doesn't blow my circuit-breaker when I turn it on.

Tool storage is excellent -- there's even room to store extra blades on the unit. The only storage Bosch neglected to include was a blade-guard storage.

I can't begin to describe how excellent this unit is.

5-0 out of 5 stars Precise, workhorse of a table saw
The Bosch 4000K Table Saw is incredibly engineered to provide for precise saw operation with great portable power. I am a very serious do-it-yourselfer (translated, contractors have rejected bids on some projects I ended up doing solo). I replaced an under powered and grossly inaccurate Delta table saw with the Bosch and am nothing but pleased. It has enough power to rip a 2x4x10 all the way without bogging down. Most of all, the rip fence is perfectly aligned. The built in dust collector port and blade, rip fence, and miter saw storage are a real plus too. The stand is very stable. When equipped with the outfeed and side tables, the Bosch 4000K can handle just about any cutting job you throw to it. And best of all, it is very light weight and built to be moved. Overall, an outstanding product.

PS -- I am a DeWalt lover at heart, but their saw simply won't run with the Bosch. It is of lesser power and prone to accuracy issues. Check it out and you can see the same problems.

5-0 out of 5 stars Zip-a-dee do saw
Nice tool, especially considering the size, weight and price. Strong, quiet motor... Smooth, accurate adjustment... Well thought out in every aspect, and a pleasure to use. Typical Bosch.

3-0 out of 5 stars 4.4 horsepower? I don't think so.
If one horsepower is about 750 watts at 100% efficiency, then how can a 15 amp saw produce anything more than about two horsepower?

4-0 out of 5 stars Great Saw with a few idiosyncrasies
As others have stated, this saw is arguably the best small/benchtop tablesaw on the market. The motor is strong and quiet. The soft start feature is nice, especially since it keeps the saw from jerking on uneven surfaces (often noted on outdoor jobsites) and helps prepare your ears for the noise when working inside. The cabinet and stand seem sturdy and are well thought out (including hand grips and tool/blade/accessory storage). On the flip side, thought the saw has a textured aluminum table that scratches easily and needs cleaned of saw dust frequently. The dust port is marginally effective (I have a 5.5hp wet/dry hooked to it on the jobsite and still sweep often). Blade changing isn't difficult, but takes a little practice - 10" blades must be worked into place. While the saw runs an 8" stacked dado with ease, the arbor setup could be better (read: longer, truer, etc.) as I cannot seem to get a flat bottom dado (with Frued SD508). The side and rear extensions are very nice to have, although the side extension is not flush in height with the table surface (strange?). Lastly, machine setup is difficult (or at least for me). The table is fixed, so blade to miter slot alignment is done by moving the motor/blade mechanism which is more than touchy. The fence clamps by rear to front tension and is very hard, though not impossible, to lineup with the miter slot (repeatably). Other settings are as expected - basically problem free.

This is a great tool and will not dissapoint if you are patient enough to get it setup well - as with any tablesaw purchase, consider decent setup tools (e.g. precision square, 45deg block, and TS-Aligner). ... Read more

What the Bosch 12-inch compound miter saw may lack inpopularity compared to some of its competitors, it makes up for inquality design and construction. The saw has a heavy-duty 26-inch steeltable that extends to 29 inches, and a tall sliding fence for workingwith crown molding and other large stock. While this isn't the lightest12-inch saw available, at only 43 pounds it's still plenty portable,and comes with a cushioned top handle for easy carrying to and from thetruck. Considering how solid and stable this tool is, and the amount ofmetal making up the base and table, we were actually surprised to findthat it weighs as little as it does. The 15 amp motor on this saw, intypical Bosch fashion, runs remarkably smooth and relatively quiet. Theelectric brake stops the blade quickly every time. The miter gauge onthis saw is engraved, so if the paint wears off you won't lose themarkings or need to replace the saw. This is a great feature, and theBosch saw is one of only a couple of saws on the market that includesit. It also features nine miter detents that can be easily overriddenfor micro adjustments, and we had no problem getting the table to lockin tight at a half degree off the detent.

The saw has a comfortable horizontal D-handle, with a nice wide triggerand a safety switch inset in the handle right where your thumb canreach it. This saw offers all the accuracy and cutting capacity ofother 12 inchers in a design that's easy and comfortable to use. Bestof all, it comes with the Bosch reputation for solid engineering andsmooth performance. The saw comes with a quick-action clamp, adirectional dust chute, a dust bag, a 40-tooth carbide blade, andwrenches for adjusting the fence and changing the blade. --BrianTrinen ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent compound miter saw
I have used the Bosch 3912B 12" for several years for woodworking. With a quality 96-tooth blade it is a very precise saw and cuts very smoothly. This saw can cut a 45 degree miter in a 4x4 board or trim
a miter to a hair.

5-0 out of 5 stars Professionally Recommended
I talked to a lot of professional woodworkers and carpenters, before I purchased the Bosch 3912B (they all recommended the Bosch 3912B). They told me to spend a little bit more and get a quality product. I am extremely happy that I did.

Miter and compound cuts have been accurate right out of the box. Using this tool is such a pleasure, I am still impressed with the performance and the precise cuts. Bosch also offers more accessories than other brands. I really like the lock on the saw. You can release the table with little effort and reset your miter position with ease.

If you want a quality tool, get this Bosch!! It's smooth, quiet, and well worth the money.

5-0 out of 5 stars Solid piece of equipment
Very impressive piece of machinery with positive stops at most common angles. Standard blade is not too bad either. High fence for crown molding and smooth drop action and good dust collection makes it a good buy. (...)

3-0 out of 5 stars A construction saw, not for cabinetmakers.
I was hoping the reviews would lead to the best fixed (not sliding) miter saw, I decided to buy the 3912. I no longer buy power tools over the internet, so I bought it at a local contractor tool supplier. This gives me the option of showing the salespeople the issues that I am having if I need to return it. While I was hoping that the saw would be accurate and true right out of the box, it was nearly that. Unfortunately for how good the miter stops were there was too much runout, blade wobble, 1/32". I took it back and we tested two more 3912's all of which had the same problem. They told me to expect that from all saws in this price range. The arbor, the blade, I don't know. Haven't had the time to put a new blade, or do any crown work. So good luck if you expect to pull it out of the box and saw away.

5-0 out of 5 stars A good, reliable investment
After putting this saw through its paces for a few weeks, I have found this miter saw has what it takes for accuracy and ease of use. Some concerns in public forums about this saw have not become evident. Set-up was simple and straight-forward - instructions were written in a helpful manner. Calibration was relatively uncomplicated (the bevel was the only adjustment I needed to make); the table of the saw is stable when anchored securely, according to the instructions, to a good strong bench; the blade spins true, and the arbor stays put; no electrical problems that others have experienced seemed to surface. A nice feature that no one has mentioned yet is the graduated fence - marks etched in the fence every half inch from the blade are handy when you need to make fast, "ballpark" cuts. The only semblance of a complaint I have is that the safety switch for the trigger takes significant pressure to activate. Erring on the side of safety, this is a small complaint. Overall, I think this is a fine tool. ... Read more

This might just be the perfect miter saw, packed with everything you ever wished for and then some. Of course, a saw's nothing if it's not accurate, but the Bosch 4410 is dead-on right from the box. Of all its great features, our favorite by far is the four-position handle. Like a vertical grip? You've got it. Horizontal? That too. In a stroke of engineering genius, Bosch designed the handle to convert easily to the grip that suits you best, a feature so desirable that we bet it will start appearing on other brands. Our usual complaint about miter saws is that the fence is too low, and Bosch has addressed that with nice 4-1/2 inch tall Speed Track sliding fences, making any bevel setup and crown molding cut a cinch. Yet another change we appreciated was the relocation of the bevel lever and adjustment knob right up in front where you need it. Speaking of bevels, you've got a complete range on both left and right, at 47 and 46 degrees respectively. The miter detent system is super accurate, but sometimes the rest of the world isn't perfect and a 45-degree miter might not be what you need. No problem. Override the detent and sneak up on the cut with the superb micro-fine adjustment, even on a long workpiece, thanks to the sliding base extensions and handy tool-free clamping levers. It always irritates us when we can't read the numbers on a tool, and even that complaint is taken care of with the easy-to-see scale for both the bevels and miters. Last but far from least, this saw is powered by a 3 hp max, 15-amp motor that runs the blade through oak like butter. Even the included blade is high quality and leaves a flawless cut line. A beautiful machine.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars The Carpenter's Samurai Sword
If you are like me, the first thing that runs through your mind when looking at an expensive tool is 'Wow! But is it worth the money.' Since I'm in the middle of remodeling a kitchen and fixing up a house, I decided to take no chances and make the investment on the assumption that I would eventually use most of this saws features. And I have.

This is the most well thought out miter saw I have ever used. Whether you need to chop, slide, miter, bevel, cut grooves, or make compound cuts, it just simply does the job with a minimum of fuss. If you don't like the angle of the grip, change it. Make gross and fine adjustments. And the carbide blade is incredible as well. And it is built like a rock, a very well oiled rock - if you take care of it it will last forever.

Based on what you do you may want to pick up a second quick clamp, a crown molding support stop, or the extra long base rod kit. There are a few other nifty widgets as well. As I said, Bosch has spent considerable thought in making this a truly professional piece of equipment.

5-0 out of 5 stars The saw all others want to be!
What can I say, this is the saw that all other compound sliders want to be! The saw came just days after I ordered it in prefect condition. Set up was a breeze, seeing that the saw came dead on accurate. As a seasoned woodworker, I have learned that it is not worth saving a couple of dollars here and a couple of dollars there when buying a tool. The extra cost for this saw is more than worth the price! Don't be fooled by other saws on the market, the Bosch 4410 us the way to go!

5-0 out of 5 stars Worth the wait
I almost opted for the Hitachi (w/laser guide) because the 4410 was unavailable when I ordered, but I held out and it's worth the wait. No problems with the saw shipped UPS. The bevel was locked down off zero, but the stop was fine - I just set it to the preset, and no problem. The first job I had for the saw was cutting some Ipe decking for a sandbox. If you haven't worked with this stuff - it's brutal - you have to predrill to sink decking screws into it, you can't drill too small (or you'll snap stainless steel screws in half) - and I could only drill about half an inch at a time before the bit would overheat. But this saw cut through it without complaining and left a mirror-like finish (not so hard to do on such a dense wood, I guess). The controls are pretty intuitive. The slide-out extensions and built-in stop are pretty handy, though limited. The table is 3 3/4" high - so you can support long workpieces using 2-2x's and a 1x stacked up (the instruction manual tells you it was designed this way). I like the rotating handle - it's handier than you'd guess - not only do you get your preference of vertical versus horizontal (I like the 45-degree setting), but I find I like different settings with the saw higher or lower (I was cutting with the saw on my garage floor).

My only complaint is the amount of dust it kicks out, but I don't have experience with other models that weren't hooked up to a dust collection system.

1-0 out of 5 stars devoted Bosch user, disillusioned by Bosch support
I am a professional finish carpenter and cabinet maker with a shop full of tools, most of them Bosch. I ordered this saw in April and received it promptly with a severed power cord. The saw looked great but obviously wasn't much use in its delivered condition. I took it right away to a Bosch warranty service center. They called me the next day to say that they wouldn't fix it under warranty. So I contacted Amazon and they offered me a 10% discount for the damage. I contacted the service center to see if the repair could be completed within that dollar amount and they thought it could. That was over a month ago. I call every week to see if it's fixed. Nobody contacts me to provide updates or explanations; I have to call and call and try to track somebody down. It just goes on and on. I imagine that the saw would be great if I could ever get my hands on it, but this experience is seriously compromising my confidence in Bosch; if I can't count on their service and support, the quality of their tools will be irrelevant. I can't afford to have the tools I rely on disappear into the fog like this. And I think they should have just fixed it under warranty in the first place instead of running a loyal customer through this maze and frustration.

5-0 out of 5 stars Awesome Saw!!!!
I balked a little on the price, but after working with it, it is worth every penny! Every stop was dead on right out of the box. I swapped the blade with an 80 tooth Freud, and could tell little difference in the cuts from the blade that came with it.

First time set up was very easy. The saw is mostly assembled right out of the box. It took me less than 1/2 hour to install the few small parts and check all of the miter and bevel stops.

It is a great convenience to have all the controls up front. My workshop is crowded, and not having to reach behind to set bevels is a bonus. The micro-adjust feature for the stops is a real time saver for "sneaking up" on a cut.

I have owned and/or used several other brands (D-----, M-----,H-----), but this saw is more accurate and intuitive to use than any of the rest.

Bosch certainly did this one right! ... Read more

This dual-bevel sliding compound miter saw from Bosch offers as much capacity as possible combined with a host of features that make it easy to work with. It miters 52 degrees to the left and 60 to the right, and it bevels from 0 to 47 degrees in either direction. We really like the front-bevel lock lever on this saw, which eliminates the need to reach around to the back to make bevel changes. The base is 25-1/2 inches long and has sliding extensions on each side that bring the total length up to 40 inches. There's a 4-1/2-by-11-3/4-inch-long sliding fence on each side that allows for cutting crown molding up to 6 inches vertically or up to 10-1/4-inch crown molding laid flat. The saw also has the capacity to cut up to 4-by-12-inch stock at 90 degrees, 4-by-8-1/2-inch stock ata 45-degree miter, and 2-3/4-by-8-1/2-inch stock at a 45-degree miter and a 45-degree left bevel. The four-position rotating handle is another great innovation on this saw. Some people prefer a horizontal handle and others like a vertical or diagonal handle, so Bosch designed this saw to work for everyone. They've also made the lock-off and release buttons ambidextrous out of consideration for lefties. The saw performs as smoothly and accurately as you would expect from a top-of-the-line Bosch tool and it's built to stand up to tough job site conditions. --Brian Trinen ... Read more

2-0 out of 5 stars Look closely before you buy
I sold my DeWalt 12" sliding saw for the Bosch. BIG MISTAKE! I have 6 other Bosch tools that I love. Not this one though...

This saw looks great on the exterior. However, I was beyond dissapointed when I unpacked it. Here is a list of things that were wrong with the saw: Fences not parallel to each other. 2)Fences not square to table. 3)Sliding fences not flush to fixed fences - not even close... 4) Play in the head assembly - as compared to the Makita and Dewalt. 5) Depth of cut not deep enough. 6) Dust collector (bag) does not work at all - not even a little bit... 7) Most importantly, after the saw was calibrated perfectly to 0 degrees, I found both 45 degree detents to be way off. Again, not even close. (I used two expensive machinists squares to check the saw with.)

All of the above items are problems which can not be fixed or adjusted by the customer. Most are rooted to the design or manufacturing tools.

On the plus side, the controls are very well thought out. Every thing is located up front. Beveling past 45 degrees is easy to accomplish. Built in handles make the saw easy to move. The control handle is adjustable to fit what feels comfortable to each user. Tall fences are a nice idea. The crown detents are also a good idea. All nice ideas - unfortunately, however, poor execution on many critical items which I beleive are necessary to a good saw.

5-0 out of 5 stars Works just fine for me
Every one is always complaining about the blade movement which it does have a tad bit but it dont move while its running and has never cut a bad cut for me yet. Ive only owned the saw for a month or so. Ive done 1 base molding job then a patio job using it to chop 4 x 6's and 6 x 6's works great by the way on large lumber 1/4in. shy of a complete cut on 6x6's but very impressed with the power to cut 5in deep at a reasonable speed then used it on a crown moulding job and still very accurate. I dont know how well or how long it will hold up to both types of wood working and still remain accurate for percission jobs? Those who say its not accurate probally dont do good work anyways. or they are forcing it and any blade will flex and make a bad cut on any saw Just let the saw do the work and it will prove to be fine!

4-0 out of 5 stars another users experience
I, like many other reviewers, make my living using miter saws, so I have tried almost every one available. I chose the Bosch because my experience with their products in the past has been flawless. The thing that first attracted me to this miter saw was the 60 degree miter capacity, which is worth the price of the saw by itself when siding on the gable.
When I recieved the saw, it had some issues. I would suggest every owner check their fence to be sure it is true(I had the same problem with my Makita). The "uni-fence" design is a great idea, but the manufacturers seem to have a difficult time making them straight. This can be fixed with a little trial and error by clamping across the table and pulling the fence back and forth until it is right. (Don't forget to loosen at least one of the fence bolts, the outside ones are almost impossible to loosen) It doesn't take much force, and the magnesium (I think) has almost no rebound. Once this is fixed, the saw is a champ, but the problem is hard to catch at first. Even a 1/32" gap behind the straghtedge will cause the blade to burn when cutting wide pieces. My saw table also had an alarming ammount of wobble in the table, but tightening the pivot bolt on the underside of the saw helped to correct this some. (Again, there is a fine line, tightness here also makes the table difficult to turn.) The bevel/miter controls are where this saw really stands above any other. They are intuitive and positive. The dual compound feature was a quantem leap in miter saw technology, but most other saws make it cumbersome. This saw makes it really easy. The knob to the left of the lock lever allows positive control and locks the blade square(plumb) if you want it to. Here again, my saw may not work correctly, because it looks like there are 3 positions, but mine only engages 2. Still, it is easy to release, and return to square. I am told that there is a miter detent override, but I haven't discovered it yet (I don't like to read the manual).
My advice to any potental buyer is to ponder whether you really need the 12" size. When cutting large crown moulding, it really shines, but the larger diameter blade deflects signifigantly more than the 10". This makes the 10" more accurate for most cutting. The 12" blades also cost almost twice as much, and cannot be used for crosscutting on the tablesaw. By all means, buy the Bosch in either size (they have just revamped their 10" to include all these same features). The cutting capacity of the 12" is about 5" x 12", and the 10" is 4" x 12". Either will cut a standard 4x4, and neither will cut a 6x6.

2-0 out of 5 stars Disapointed
I seen the Bosch 4412 at the home show in Las Vegas Jan. 04 and could not wait to get home to buy one. I found one at a local tool suppler on Feb 3 and am returning it today Feb 4. The wobble in the blade is totaly unacceptable. I own a trim company in north west Florida and we do high end homes on and near the beach. We could really us a saw with the features that are offered on the 4412 but without the wobble.

3-0 out of 5 stars Apprehensive buyer
After falling in love with the Bosch 10" single bevel compound miter saw three years ago, I have been anxiously awaiting the release of this saw. I must admit that after reading all the reports of inferior cuts, I am a little nervous about buying this saw. I am a finish carpenter in Aspen CO, who works on the finest homes, where there is no room for error (which is why I have scrapped my Dewalt, and am buying a new saw). I have looked the saw over at the local hardware store and look forward to using it. But, if it fails to provide a perfect cut, then back it will go! I will write back to rate it after a few months of using it.

I am writing this in hopes that BOSCH will see their saw through the perspective buyers eyes, and know what's important to them.
I own several BOSCH tools and love them all and expect the same high standard, precision tool I have enjoyed previously. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars CUT THE ELECTRIC CORD
AS A CABINET INSTALLER A MITER SAW IS A MUST. BOSCH'S 10" 24 VOLT COMPOUND MITER SAW IS POWERFUL ENOUGH TO CUT THROUGH 6" HARD WOOD FILLERS AND 4-1/2" CROWN MOLDING WITH NO PROBLEMS. THE LIGHT WEIGHT AND PORTABILITY OF THIS SAW MAKES IT GREAT FOR PICKUP WORK. ONE BATTERY WILL LAST ALL DAY AND INTO THE NEXT. THE VARIOUS ACCESSERIES AVAILABLE MAKE THIS SAW COMPARABLE TO THE BOSCH 10" ELECTRIC.THIS SAW HAS THE BIGGEST BLADE AND LARGEST BATTERY CAPACITY OF ANY CORDLESS ON MARKET TODAY FOR THE PRICE. GOOD JOB BOSCH.

5-0 out of 5 stars no cord? no worries
I have all the 24 volt bosch stuff and love them so I tried this saw. At first I was a bit concerned, after all a cordless miter saw?, 900+ sqft of heart pine floring later, I was convinced, I had only charged the batteries once! 900+ sqft on 2 batteries! Now I leave my other Bosch 10" slider and DeWalt 12" chop at home. This saw is so light and powerful you'll be addicted. The only thing I questioned was the price...Did I really need to go cordless? This is my list of projects that convinced me this tool was worth the extra money: our deck, the boat house, gazeebo, pickett fences, tree house, and work around our cabin. All cordless I love this saw!

2-0 out of 5 stars This saw is way too expensive
Look. This saw is way, way too expensive. If you need an extra 24 volt battery and charger, just buy them. With the money left over you could also buy a better corded miter saw and an oversized circular saw to boot. Even then, you would still have enough money left over to celebrate feeling so good about your wise choices.

Used this saw for about a year. I love this thing. Great for every carpentry job. It has plenty of balls. Lightweight. Nothing bad to say.

I am not sure why Amazon only gave Donald 1 battery. I have sold over 30 of these saws through Amazon and they all have had 2 batteries. Donald, Amazon should allow you to return the item and get your money back. I would be glad to sell you a saw with 2 batteries, however my saw only has 1 blade. My saws can no longer be listed under this model number, so look under model 3924K. ... Read more
