GCM12SD vs DWS716

Bosch GCM12SD vs DEWALT DWS716. Of the 3 figures both makers publish, none differs outright. One is worded too differently to set side by side: included. Both are miter saws with the same blade diameter: blade diameter 12" on the GCM12SD, 12 in. on the DWS716, in their makers' figures.

Stated differently, not directly comparable

The two makers put these figures in different terms, so the rows cannot be read as a match or a difference from these pages.

Cited for one of the pair: only Bosch's cited pages give voltage, bevel capacity, miter capacity, crosscut capacity, speed and weight; only DEWALT's cited pages give motor and arbor. The other maker may publish the figure elsewhere; ask it rather than assume the GCM12SD and DWS716 match there.
