Bosch GCM12SD Glide Miter Saw vs Milwaukee M18 FUEL 10" Dual Bevel Miter Saw

Buy the Milwaukee M18 FUEL if you work on job sites without an outlet, move the saw between rooms, or already own M18 batteries. Buy the Bosch GCM12SD if you work mostly in a shop, cut wide trim and crown, and want a 12-inch blade with the Axial-Glide arm that needs no rear clearance against a wall. The Bosch has the larger crosscut and the more established glide mechanism; the Milwaukee is lighter, cordless, and rated higher by owners, but it is a 10-inch saw sold as a bare tool and its capacity trails the Bosch at full bevel.

• Choose the Bosch GCM12SD if you cut wide boards and crown molding in a fixed shop and want a 12-inch blade with a glide arm that sits flush to a wall.
• Choose the Milwaukee M18 FUEL if you need cordless cutting on site, carry the saw often, or already run M18 batteries.
