Kobalt Vs Dewalt Vs Hitachi Miter Saw comparison

There is not much of difference between the two models Metabo KGS305 and Dewalt DWS779 device, except that the Metabo device is a dual bevel sliding device whereas Dewalt DWS779 is a compound sliding device. Dual bevel means it provides all three functionalities like beveling on both left and right, mitering and sliding as well. Lets compare the above two devices as follows.

Blade Size:

Metabo KGS305 has a blade size of 12 inch and Dewalt DWS779 model is also fitted with 12 inch blade size. The more the blade size the deeper the tool cuts and produces the perfect finish to the product. The size of blade would determine the best product to be purchased among the models available in the market.

People would obviously choose the product which has a better blade size. The better blade size determines how soon the work could be completed on the wood board and also the finish of the product.

One advantage Metabo has over dewalt is that Metabo is dual beveled device where the wood can be beveled on both left and right side along with sliding and mitering the wood or log, where in dewalt beveling is possible on either side of the wood. Hence my take here is that Metabo KGS305 wins here hands down.

Amps:

Metabo KGS305 is provided with 15amps and Dewalt DW779 is also provided with 15amps. Amps play a major role in selecting a miter saw is because more the amps the better and longer the tool will function is the thumb rule. So once again both the devices are better placed here as it has same amps which would lead to better and longer run of the device.

 Amps is a term to measure the electricity and if the devices are run by battery then amps play a huge role in the longevity of the device. My take is that both the device wins the race without any question.

Weight:

Metabo KGS305 device is weighed 77 pounds and Dewalt device is weighed 56 pounds. More the weight it becomes difficult to work with the tool. Nevertheless if user neglects the weight of a device and prefers to choose the product on other parameters then Metabo is the better device among the two.

Weight generally plays a vital role as the user should feel good while working with the device without any hassles. As dual bevel sliding miter saws need to be moved to cut the wood work, weight of the device becomes important. Hence my take is that Dewalt device is the real winner here in terms of weight.

Durability:

Both the device come with a durability of 3 years. Not much is there to compare between the two devices and durability provided is same. Warranty of a product is very much important when purchasing the product because longer the device runs better is for the user rather than keep purchasing the device frequently.

Hence my take here is both devices are tied in terms of durability of the product.

Price:

Comparatively the price of Metabo KWS305 is very high compared to Dewalt DWS779 miter saw. Since Metabo has a dual bevel sliding miter saw the device is very costly than Dewalt device. Off course when a device is loaded with brilliant features the customer would pay a premium for the device.

When a consumer is out to purchase a miter saw blade size amps weight and durability is important so as price is. Hence my take is that though Dewalt is priced in the mid-level segment, would still prefer the Metabo device at a higher premium.

Final Recount of the product comparison:

After comparing both the products on various parameters, Metabo KWS305 sounds a better product in many parameters except for the pricing. Though the price of Metabo KWS305 is high the product is loaded with extra feature when compared to its rival Dewalt DWS779 miter saws. Overall Metabo KWS305 wins here hands down.
