Compound Feature for Precise Miters and Bevels
Hitachi designed the C10FCE2 for versatile, easy use. The thumb-actuated positive miter stops allow for simple miter adjustments between zero and 52 degrees. This design allows you to easily change the angle of the cutting blade for creating miters in crown molding and other trim pieces. And with a bevel range of 45 degrees to the left, the Hitachi C10FCE2 provides gorgeous bevels on the first try.The 10-1/2-inch TCT saw blade (included) makes easy work of delicate trim and other woodwork, and the large extended flip fence raises to four inches to allow for accurate cutting of large workpieces up to 2-5/16 inches high and 5-21/32 inches deep. Chock-Full of User-Friendly Features
The C10FCE2 has plenty of features to help you make the perfect cut the first time. To start, a 15-amp motor generates a no-load speed of up to 5,000 RPM for making crosscuts and miters with ease, even on the toughest cutting jobs. For ease of use, a comfortable horizontal handle with a vibration-reducing elastomer grip keeps you in control at all times, a large table provides a stable guide and sturdy support, and a built-in clamping system holds your workpiece in place. The C10FCE2 also includes a dust collector that minimizes accumulation of dust and particles in your both your workspace and the saw's interior components, keeping your jobsite clean and prolonging the life of the tool. An added bonus, easily accessible carbon brushes will help your saw perform for the long term. Weighing just 26.3 pounds, the C10FCE2 is the lightest tool in its class, making it the most portable 10-inch compound miter saw on the market. Durably built, this tool is backed with an industry-leading five-year warranty. It is compatible with the UU610 Miter Saw Stand from Hitachi. About Hitachi: A Tradition of Innovation

 Works Great March 10, 2010
Jan (DC)
I bought this saw from Amazon 15 months ago and I've used it frequently since. I've made about 80 cuts of treated 4x4, 100's of cuts of 2x10 and 2x12 (cutting half way through and then flipping the board over to finish the cut), and hundreds of 2x4's. I've even cut a few pieces of cured oak firewood when my first blade got tired. As long as you use the right cutting speed, this engine will power through anything. The built in clamp is useful and the saw is heavy enough to not tilt over after the cut. The guides and pivots are all intuitive. It's such a great tool, I use it even when I should probably pull out the circular.
Some minor issues: the sawdust bag is welcome, but it only catches half. It's to be expected but maybe down the road when I buy the next one, they'll have improved this. If I'd known I was going to cut such large dimensional lumber, I would have been seriously tempted to get the sliding compound miter, but it cost 4x as much and this one, surprisingly, does alright when used right.
Two thumbs up Hitachi!

Saw arrived in excellent condition, very fast. I'm an occasional user of this saw, and it works great. I plan to add a Freud blade to it and expect even better results.
Great little "knock-around" saw January 27, 2010
elkay (Selma, OR USA)
Got this 10-inch miter to replace a fire-damaged B&D. Came packaged just fine. Nothing broken, brand new out of the box. Does all that I want it to as a homeowner and for its portability, as for larger jobs, I have a 12" Rigid in the garage. Had it less than a week, so have used it sparingly. Could use a finer toothed blade, but that's a nit.
 Returned the first one January 10, 2010
Brian (Cincinnati, OH United States)
I returned the first one because the bevel adjustment was so tight that I couldn't loosen. Directions are weak too, trying to tell me the wrong way to turn to loosen the bevel. Got the replacement and it works great! Returning a saw to Amazon is a bit of pain because of the wait time, but you get a full refund on shipping and they pick it up at your door.

I also have the table saw version of this type of saw,the job site saw. Both are from Hitachi, and both are light duty saws. They are light weight and easy to lug around. They both have enough power to do most tasks that you will encounter at a job site and enough accuracy too. I added the laser cutting guide from Rockler, selling for $12.50. It is a useful improvement and you can't beat the price.
What makes these saws great is the weight. My DeWalt Heavy-Duty 12-Inch Dual Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw takes two people to carry comfortably, and requires a good dedicated stand to hold it. By way of contrast, this saw weighs about fifteen pounds and can operate comfortably on an upturned trash can.
This is an excellent saw for the price. You can expect it to do 90% of what you buy a miter saw for, and do it well. Don't get me wrong, these are not the level of tool that one would choose to call furniture grade though.
