Dewalt DW872 Chop saw

[ndemge]

Opinions on this saw?

We will be cutting wood and HDPE pipe with it.
We are currently using a 15amp milwaulkee abrasive cutoff saw with a wood blade on it, not exactly the safest tool, so want to get a saw that has a blade guard.

I'm looking for the strongest chop saw I can get on single phase power if anyone knows of anything else......

I would personally select Milwaukee - motors are much better IMO

I have that Dewalt saw and use it a lot. It is an excellent tool.
