Do yourself a favor before you but this and Google "Kapex motor problems" and you will be amazed at what you will find. My burned up two motors in less than four years. First time it burned up was about after two years of using the saw and festool covered it under warrenty in lightning time! The saw broke on Monday, sent it off to their repair shop on Tuesday and it was sitting on my door step repaired Thursday afternoon when I got home from work! A year and a half latter the exact same problem occurred, smoke rolling out of the top of the saw, this time festool wouldn't cover under warrenty. I have several festool products and I believe they make some excellant tools but the Kapex has a glitch that they are not willing to correct at this time.

I'm getting ready to send mine in for repair. Third time in two and a half years. First time fence would not slide fully and some other annoyance I don't remember. Second time throwing fine mist of oil on wood, bad seal. This time the bevel mechanism broke.

This site lists this under 12 inch saws, but the blade diameter on this saw is 10-1/4" (260 mm) according to Festool website.

Waste of money. I purchased this saw in March of 2016 thinking that I would be getting a quality product. My motor is on the brink of going out after moderate use. Before I used this saw, I had a Dewalt sliding miter saw that lasted 8 years for a fraction of the price. Not only do I regret purchasing it, but you would have to be crazy to buy this saw today. All of the innovations that this saw has have been copied by all of the other major brands, not to mention Festool refuses to address a common motor problem with this saw. Don't forget that you'll also have to spend over $900 for their stand with supports.

I am a self employed finish carpenter with a stable of miter saws (Bosch glide, old Hitachi 8 inch, Makita cms, and the Festool). I've had the kapex for 5 years and it's now going to be on it's third motor (currently shipping to indiana) - I use tenryu blades and the saw has never seen a cord more than 50ft 10gauge. I've also replaced the bevel assembly and guard mechanism. For a saw that cost $1500......ridiculous. Bosch aside, my other saws are older and have seen considerably more use. However, all they ever need are some fresh brushes and a good cleaning from time to time I may retire the kapex if/when it comes back
