Review: Powerful, Accurate, and Built to Last - I’ve been using the DEWALT DWS779 for a while now, and it has exceeded my expectations. The cutting power is impressive—it goes through hardwood smoothly without bogging down. The sliding feature is very fluid, allowing for precise and clean crosscuts even on wider boards. What really stands out is the accuracy right out of the box. The miter and bevel adjustments are easy to dial in, and once set, they stay locked in place. The build quality is solid, with a sturdy base that keeps everything stable during operation. It’s also user-friendly, with clear markings and a comfortable handle that makes long work sessions easier. Whether you’re a professional or a serious DIYer, this saw delivers consistent, high-quality results. Highly recommended if you’re looking for reliability and precision in a 12-inch miter saw.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is there an LED cut line?**
A: You can add the LED light to this saw.  Not a laser but a shadow light that show exactly where the saw blade will cut.   I just did it last night.   Parts can be had for about $70.   This basically turns it into a model 780 which is much more expensive.   Pretty simple to add.

**Q: Does this miter saw come with a laser or any guiding system?**
A: I've been a finish Carpenter for over 30 years and found the best laser is your eyes..First thing I do is disconnect/turn off laser if saw I am using is equipped with one...I have found them to be very inaccurate even when fine tuned...Just one Master Carpenters opinion...I own this saw and love it..my only complaint is when shaving an 1/8" to 3/8" off stock it will fall into table blade groove so next cut ,blade catches cutoffs and rockets out !!!!

**Q: Can xps be added, i know dewalt makes a kit to add it to some saws, but this model was not listed.**
A: As of March 4 2022 you cant buy all the parts to upgrade to the XPS light for less than $100. Wish I would have know this before I bought mine, since I could have just bought a DWS780 for about the same price as the parts cost and wouldnt have had to put anything together. Maybe this will change, but I spoke to a rep at MMToolparts, they dont know when they'd be getting the light component back in stock. Bought the power and light (part N515802) as one from Dewalt part supplier since that seems the way those parts are sold now, but it alone is $70 before taxes and shipping. Then you have to buy a new handle to allow install which is another $16 and wire harness for $10. So probably easier and cheaper just to buy the DWS780.

**Q: What is the measurement from the bottom of the saw (top of the workbench) to the top of the cutting table of the saw?**
A: I have two Dewalt slide saws. Both of mine are 3⁹/16. The first is an old type I the other is the battery 120 volt. The table height for both are exactly the same.
