Customer Reviews:

Good saw if you can get it at the right price. [Posted on 2005-03-24]
I agree with most of what the Amazon.com reviewer had to say about the Delta MS350 except for the comment on dust collection;I think dust goes everywhere EXCEPT the dust bag. This saw is certainly a step up from the MS 250 in quality and power but is still a lower end saw that has ok mitering capabilities. I am somewhat confused as to the pricing of this unit and it's availability. Amazon has the MS 350 for 179.00 and Sears (my place of purchase) has the same model for 99.00, the same price as the MS 250 it was replacing. It is possible that Sears simply made a mistake when selling it to me though. The saw was not out on display but their website advertised it at 99.00, this was last November, 04 when the transaction took place. If they (Sears) are still selling this model at that price then it would be advisable to stop by and pick one up. Looking at it from that perspective (purchase price), it can't be beat.

Good construction saw [Posted on 2007-04-08]
When I making furniture, this was one of my first purchases. I used it for several years until my skills improved to the point where I began to need a more accurate and repeatable saw. This saw has plenty of accuracy for construction or general use, but falls short for projects requiring a very good fit.

As a previous reviewer mentioned, dust collection was marginal with only a portion of the dust collected in the supplied bag. In fairness, without a vacuum attached I don't think any miter saw would be much better.

This saw did see fairly heavy use for about 3 years and stood up well and was still working when I replaced it.
