Watash Posted August 3, 2019 Report Share Posted August 3, 2019 I'm about to buy a new miter saw. I have the choice of a DW715 or a DWS715, both at the same price. What's the difference between the two? The salesmen at the store have no idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watash Posted August 8, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Well, it looks like nobody knows the answer to this question, but don't feel too bad - neither does Dewalt. Finally got an e-mail response from them, and their answer was totally incomplete. They told me that there was a difference in a locking mechanism, which there is . . . but that hardly explains the six pound difference in weight between the two models. So, apparently no one, not even the people who make the machine, know what the difference is between the two models. Great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToolBane Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Now that’s interesting. Is it a corded model? Sometimes I think they pay so much attention to cordless that they forget what their own corded tools even are anymore. Browsing miters recently I came across what looked like my exact Dewalt miter, even though I bought mine almost a decade ago. Sorry no one happens to have an answer for you.
