Hitachi C12RSH 12 " Jun 28, 2006
By Dr. Finish I am a professional woodworker and I purchased this saw specifically for cutting stair skirtboards, for which this saw proved up to the task. I also currently have the Hitachi 10' slide compound sans laser. The laser beam is a little to broad for my liking so I find my eye is still more accurate. Improvements in this saw that I really like are the rack&pinion gearing for dialing "micro adjustments" and the placement of slide tubes up top and to the side. This placement prevents sawdust from being thrown back into the slide tube bearings a big plus. Of course it would be nice if Hitachi would provide an attachnent so that the saw could be hooked up to a two inch vacuum line. Of course the saw is big and bulky but it is a 12 inch so... The setting are a little easier to read than most previous saws and the locks for positioning angle and bevel are solid. The bevel lock is a little awkward to work with but the slip ratchet mechanism helps. I feel that the motor is a little under powered so one has to go slower on cuts. All and all I am pleased with this saw and look forward to comtinued improvemts.

One big mother!!! Jul 21, 2009
By Jonny I'm a remodeling contractor working in the finest homes in Washington, DC. I've been using this saw for about three months now. In a nutshell, this saw performs well. The saw cuts perfect miters right out of the (BIG) box. The motor has plenty of power to push through everything I've thrown at it. I work with a lot of talented professionals who all have their own miter boxes but most everyone on site now prefers this saw as the go to. I LOVE! the new fence system with the included hinged sub fence. The sub fence not only flips in or out, it can also be flipped up to create a 10" high fence! I don't no why Hitachi is not shouting this feature out from the rooftops. No other saw that I know of offers a fence system like this. I don't like Hitachi's new look with all of the insignificant and ugly plastic parts (it makes their tools look like a toys). This saw is heavy and bulky. If possible, the saw is best left in its cutting station and not bounced around the job site. I'm happy with my purchase and would recommend this saw to any serious wood worker.

never been better Aug 08, 2009
By albbac2 I just purchased this saw after my 12 Dewalt spindle lock broke. I couldn't be more happy. This saw performs to the upmost challenge. I do a lot of trim work and the miters are right on the money. Cross cutting large stock is perfect every time. The adjustable flip over fence is fantastic (both sides) The saw is a bit bulky and a bit too much plastic gingerbread but it is a worker. The slide is smooth and effortless wow I'm happy with this saw and would recommend it to anyone.

The best miter saw!!!!! May 07, 2008
By G. Richardson
"Supreme master woodowrker"
Now heres a real gem boys... little pricey but well worth every cent you pay for it. Cuts as accurate as any right out of the box... good fine adjustments available. Handy depth stop feature if using an aux fence. Will cut 12" wide!!!! Provisions for hooking up standard vacuum hosing to it.

Love it! C12RSH Jun 03, 2011
By TJ Previously owned a Dewalt "DW715" and I prefer this saw hands down. I am no professional anything, just a hobbiest, week end warrior and home renovator. When my older dewalt was destroyed by mother nature, I went looking for a new saw but listed this one in my "not in my price range" folder, until I ran across the display model for sale at Costco for $350; missing the blade and some of the doodads, they took the price to $300, my price range indeed! Now that I've used it, I can say it should have never been out of my price range, as I'm using it constantly even for tasks I could make do with a simple hand saw, just for the pleasure of using the saw. Sure, it might be more saw than I NEED, but it does everything I need it to do, does it better than the dewalt did, does more than the dewalt did, and is pure pleasure to use. Every moving part moves smoothly; even for the display model, with out any adjustment, it cuts an angle dead on, laser is adjustable (thank goodness); it's rugged, durable, and lighter than the Rigid/Dewalt. I can't tell you about the clamps or blade, (a.k.a. missing doodads) but if the rest of the saw is an indication, they would be ideal as well.
The ONLY con... if you can call it that:
This saw, when fully extended, has slightly more "play" in the arm than say the Rigid, Milwaukee, or Dewalt offerings due to the arrangement of the slide rails, but it takes a decent amount of horizontal force to make get it to move at all, use it as intended and you will never know.
Should you buy this saw? If you need a good saw for cutting trim, picture frames, and 10,000 other odd jobs, then yes, yes you should.
