GCM12SD vs DWS780
Bosch GCM12SD vs DEWALT DWS780. Of the 4 figures both makers publish, none differs outright. 3 are worded too differently to set side by side: miter capacity, crosscut capacity and included. The GCM12SD and DWS780 are miter saws people search for together, compared on their makers' published 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.
- Miter capacity: GCM12SD: 52° Left, 60° Right. DWS780: 60° to the right and 50° to the left.
- Crosscut capacity: GCM12SD: 3-1/2" x 13-1/2". DWS780: 2x14 dimensional lumber at 90° and 2x10 at 45°.
- Included: GCM12SD: Includes; (1) GCM12SD 12 In. Dual-Bevel Glide Miter Saw; (1) Premium 12 In. 60-Tooth Carbide-Tipped Blade; (1) Wrench; (1) Toolless Vertical Work Clamp; (1) Dust Bag/Assembly; (1) Vacuum Adapter Elbow. DWS780: (1) 12-Inch Carbide Blade.
One-sided rows: only Bosch's cited pages give current, voltage, bevel capacity, speed and weight; only DEWALT's cited pages give motor and arbor. A missing figure is not a zero, so the GCM12SD and DWS780 cannot be compared on those rows from these pages.
