Tools and Hardware Reviews of Bosch 4410 10-Inch Dual Bevel Slide Miter Saw
Customer Review: Wish I hadn't spent the money
Summary: 2 Stars
I was excited about this saw when it first arrived, and it worked well until the warranty expired. When it went out of square, the autorized repair shop, with direction from Bosch, quoted over $350 to fix and said even that might not do it. They said it had been dropped or run over by a truck, both of which would be difficult since the saw had been on a stand since it was new. The shop recommended the Makita which surprisingly is made in America. I won't be looking to Bosch for quality equipment.Customer Review: Great Saw at a Great Price

If you are like me, you do alot of reaserch before purchasing ANY product.
Let me start off by saying this, I have been a carpenter for over 20 years now and I have used plenty of power tools in my time. I would choose a product by Milwaukee over all others. I have purchased a good amount of Bosch tools in the past few years and my choice has been swayed from Milwaukee to Bosch. Don't get me wrong, Milwaukee makes fabulous power tools, durable and reliable, but the tools I have purchased from Bosch seem to have the same quality's I liked from Milwaukee but have some more thought put into the design of their tools.
This saw was perfect right out of the box. I went to calibrate it and everything was right on the money, bevels, miters and straight cuts. The design is SOOOO SWEET!! The bevel lock is right up front where it should be rather than behind the saw as all others are. They have conveniently placed any wrench needed for adjustment of this saw into the back of the saw in a hideaway compartment where the other brands put the bevel lock. I like the micro adjustment it has to fine tune the miter angle if I need an angle just off of the norm. The built in extention arms are a great feature that other manufacturers will make you buy seperate (although roller stands are essential for long lumber or trim) and the angles I can cut are greater than the 45 degree angles you will get on most saws (50 degrees left miter, 60 degrees right miter, 47 degrees left bevel and 46+ degrees right bevel). The workpiece clamp is one of the best I have seen on any jobsite mitersaw I have ever used. The only thing I didn't like on this saw was that if you set the bevel to the right more than 30 degrees, the saw won't cut all the way through lumber or trim unless you placed some scrap 2by lumber under whatever you are cutting, the beltdrive housing hits the fence even when the fence is in the extended position. Of course if anyone is familiar with cutting miters and bevels on a single bevel saw, any miters and bevels can be made on the left side of the saw to avoid using 2by lumber under the workpiece easily. If anyone isn't familiar with that procedure....practice man, I had to before I had a dual bevel saw :). (It is a little bit of an inconvenience at times but not hard to accomplish.)
All the same, this saw rates 5 stars in my book. This saw should make ANYONE satisfied that purchases it. Take it from me, Big D.
Customer Review: Bosch 4410 10" Slide Miter Saw
Summary: 5 Stars
I am very pleased with the 4410. It isn't cheap, but it is worth the money. Easily one of the best 10" slides on the market. Customer Review: Not as cracked up as it should be...

I've owned lots of Bosch tools over the years and this one really pisses me off. Top of the line tool? Yeah. Micro adjuster? useless. Front bevel adjust? love it. Lock out for miter stops, love it too. But, it doesn't cut properly when beveled. I have to work the saw to get a perfect cut. It won't cut a straight line when beveled. I am a finish trim carpenter and work with stain grade wood on high end homes all the time and thought a 10" might have more precision, not in this case. Fence would come out of square. The slide bar for the gaurd would bind too right at the ball bearing so, it would be difficult to bring the saw down to cut. And under one month out of warrenty the two aluminum pieces that rotate against each other for the bevel, yeah there chewed to hell. It developed an imperfection in two places and it wasn't more than 4 swings of the bevel and now it's junk! I'd need to preplace the barrel slide holder and the miter arm that it attaches to. Can fix this one for over half what it cost just over 1 year ago! I don't think so. So, now I'm in the market for a new saw... Customer Review: sucky saw
Summary: 1 Stars
let me begin by saying that i have many bosch tools, and that they all perform very well. however, the miter saw in question is the worst that i have ever used. i am a professional trim carpenter in the tahoe area. in short the saw is over engineered. too many moving parts make for innacurate cuts.
