If you have a miter saw and want to work on anything other than a bench you got to have one of these. It is well made and very sturdy, and you cant beat the price, as it sell for almost half of some of the other brands. I like the fact that I can roll and set up with out having to carry everything. I did buy the WEN miter saw and it looks so good with the coordinating painted stand.

This is a simple stand that makes life easier to use the saw. I keep my saw attached, I just stand it on end, fold the legs, and roll it away. The workmanship is very good, and height of the saw when mounted is excellent also. The extensions are on two tubes to give much more stability than single tube extensions. Overall a very good tool at a very attractive price. I fully endorse.

Because of the cost I figured this would be cheaply made. Boy was I wrong this thing is nice, well built and has a leg for leveling, 3 outlets built in, chrome adjustable spindles, rugged real rubber wheels. A steal at this price. And it matched my saw, lol

Been using this rack with my Dewalt sliding Miter Saw 12″ and work quite nice
CONS: extender support are on the short range
Had to find screws to match my miter saw base
None the less, still works for me and price was way more affordable

Overall I am happy with the purchase. The stand is relatively well constructed and I was able to mount my SKIL 10″ dual bevel sliding miter saw. The brackets are relatively beefy. I do have a few minor and one more serious issue:
1) Serious issue: As it is, the miter stand can’t be stood up, even if you rotate the roller the other way so that the angle bracket rests on the floor. Following the advice from other reviewers, I added a 2×4 piece. I had to trim it a bit so that it’s only 3″ high (2×4’s are normally 1.5″ x 3.5″). I also made it slightly wider than the wheel base to add more stability. I drilled a couple of holes on the angle piece and permanently mounted the 2×4 in place. As it is, it doesn’t interfere with the operation of the saw. This way I don’t have to remember and locate the scrap piece of lumber.
2) The power outlet bracket (which also holds the wheels) are mounted with two hex head matchine screws but they didn’t provide a hex key. It’s 6 mm. So, find one before you start assembly.
3) Only one leg has a level adjustment screw and it’s a bit squirly. You have to fiddle with it to adjust it and there is a plastic locking nut on it.
4) The power outlet cable is really short, so you really need to run an extension cable to it, I am planning on attaching an extension cable permanently to it.
5) The handle is a bit difficult to mount. You have to fold the legs on the handle side to have access to the bolt holes.
6) I highly recommend installing the mounting brackets to the miter saw outside as it’s difficult to align things on the stand. Also, one of the bolts (the one near the locking lever) is hard to get to. You have to put the bolt in at the locking lever side first, then slide the bracket forward so that you can get to the other mounting hole.
7) They provided 4 bolts, 4 washers and 4 nuts. I would have preferred a wing nut. The washers were too small for the slots on the mounting brackets. You need larger washers.
Overall, at below $100, this is a good value and certainly beats me building a stand myself.

The first thing you SHOULD notice is the Dual Tube extensions. This is twice the support of the single square tube designs and because it is ‘spread out’ about 6 inches, makes the support MUCH MORE stable and has ZERO want of ‘twisting!” Each tube has it’s own setscrew handle too. The stock support rollers are what we call in the Engineering World, “VERY Meaty” with a good design along with the simple permanent step that you use for a material ‘bump stop.’ The handy outlet is an ‘off the shelf’ triple plug and mine actually came with an extension cord. The wheels are decent and are held onto a solid shaft with an “E” clip instead of lesser quality means. The Saw mounting is simple and clamps FAST as well as solid. The clamp action is very easy work with a mounted saw AND the ‘clamping action’ is actually adjustable for wear or preference! You can also simply pop the clamp handles ‘up,’ slid it either way to give you more length on either side and pop the handles back down. The Legs are sturdy, one has an adjustment to ‘even the stand out’ on the floor and the material holder ‘fold outs’ on the legs are pretty darn “beafy” too!
The few things that would make it almost perfect are a couple washers for the wheels against the “E” clips and “Stop Nuts” (plastic insert style or locking nuts) for the Handle and the mounting of the wheels. The Wheel mounts with bolts that actually also mount the Outlet’s Plastic Housing. Structurally this is acceptable, but you can’t expect a “Lock Washer” to hold without backing off from Saw vibration or rolling the thing around the yard. Trying to use a Lock Washer to fasten plastic never works anyway as the more you tighten, the more stress on the plastic, then it breaks. I replaced mine with two bolts/nuts each which was a simple step to make it so much better.
Other notes: Yes, you have to take the saw off to move it. My saw alone weighs 45 pounds so I would not even attempt to leave it in place. The Saw mounting bolts are pretty small and I replaced them for my Saw. The Side supports actually move up and down at an ANGLE so instead of trying to place them precisely, get them to height and THEN simply move the saw. The saw can be located anywhere on the main tubes and with the extended tubes you can get more than 6 feet from the saw. If you need more length, or a need more strength, or you’re a contractor, this is probably not the Stand for you.
PS. This is about the same as “amazon’s choice” that’s about $20 more!
