Our take on the SawStop Contractor Saw

The SawStop Contractor Saw is a 10-inch jobsite-style table saw built around SawStop's flesh-detection brake, which stops the blade in under 5 milliseconds on contact with skin. It runs a 1.75 hp, 14 A TEFC motor at 4,000 rpm on 120 V, with a 52-inch T-Glide fence, 3 1/8-inch depth of cut at 0 degrees, and left tilt to 45 degrees. A 4-inch dust port handles collection. At $2,249 at The Home Depot as of November 4, 2026, it sits at the top of what contractor saws cost, and the safety system is the reason.

Questions and answers

Is the SawStop Contractor Saw worth the price?
If avoiding a serious hand injury is worth about $2,249 to you, yes. The brake is the only feature here you cannot get on a cheaper contractor saw, and it works.
How does it compare with the SawStop Jobsite Saw?
The Contractor Saw is heavier and more stable, with a 52-inch T-Glide fence and cast iron wing options. The Jobsite Saw is lighter and made to fold up and travel.
What happens when the brake fires?
The aluminum brake block slams into the blade and stops it in under 5 milliseconds. You replace the cartridge, which costs roughly $70 to $100, and usually the blade.
Can I run it on 220 V?
Yes, with the optional conversion kit. Out of the box it runs on 120 V at 14 A, which needs a 15 A circuit with little else on it.
What is included with the saw?
The saw, the 52-inch T-Glide fence and rails, a blade guard, and a miter gauge. A stand, cast iron wings, and a mobile base are sold separately.
When is it cheapest?
SawStop sets prices fairly tightly, so discounts are rare. Watch for store-wide sales and bundle deals around major holidays rather than expecting a deep cut.
Where is the SawStop Contractor Saw cheapest?
At The Home Depot, for $2,249.00, as of our latest check.
What do buyers say about the SawStop Contractor Saw?
Rated 5 out of 5 from 1 ratings.
