Sitting in our top ten for very good reason, Bosch have bridged the gap nicely between trade and domestic use. While we’re reviewing this for a domestic setting, it’s a model that is very popular with professionals too.

Even though it’s a power tool for home use, it’s man enough for most trade jobs and has the ability to work with large materials. With a 2-point dust extraction system, the mitre saw provides optimised dust management, allowing for a clean work area during operation. The integral laser beam sight allows the angles to be set with absolute precision and once the angle is set it can be locked into place with an easy to use locking operation to guarantee that the saw will not move in the slightest to keep the angle exactly as you require. A big selling point for Bosch saws is the readily available spare parts and the large dealer network for any problems or maintenance issues.
