I returned my 10″ dual slider, bevel craftsman today. I just bought a 12″ compound dual bevel rigid. Very user friendly, awesome warranty. Better decision???? Thanks to all who responded. I hope it’s a better decision?

I love the 12" ridgid. I used it in shop class, and all I noticed was a slight squeek of mabey slipping belt(s)? but that's with rough useage of inexperianced kids.
Can you hold the laser level while I shave?
I don't have any experience with either saw or company, but dollars to donuts, you made the better choice. Ridgid has really been making a name for themselves as of late - solid features, good price, second-to-none warranty.

Chris, I have an old Craftsman 10" RAS with the heavy post from Emerson at 1 1/2 hp. ,it runs true but I don't rip on it, an early Sears (tti) contractors saw all cast wings nicely tuned and a 10" Right tilt Unisaw. The 12" DeWalt #705 ,a single miter , is a joy for what I need it for and I also have an old Sears 12" chop that is total junk ( pull the trigger and anything can happen ) and don't expect square cuts.
