Which Should You Buy?

SawStop CTS-120A60

The safest table saw you can buy. SawStop's flesh-detection system stops the blade in milliseconds on contact. Premium build quality justifies the premium price.

Pros

  • + Flesh-detection safety system — truly life-saving
  • + Excellent build quality and precision
  • + Compact and relatively portable
  • + Quiet operation

Cons

  • Expensive — nearly double the price of competitors
  • Replacement cartridge costs ~$100 after activation
  • Smaller rip capacity than DeWALT
  • No stand included

SKIL TS6307-00

The best budget table saw. At nearly half the price of the DeWALT, it delivers surprisingly good rip capacity and a decent rack-and-pinion fence.

Pros

  • + Excellent value — under $350
  • + 25.5" rip capacity impressive for the price
  • + Rack & pinion fence
  • + Folding stand included

Cons

  • Build quality noticeably cheaper than premium brands
  • Dust collection is poor
  • Miter gauge is flimsy
  • Fence can drift under heavy use
