GCM12SD vs LS1219L
Bosch GCM12SD vs Makita U.S.A. LS1219L. Of the 5 figures both makers publish, 2 differ: crosscut capacity and speed. One is worded too differently to set side by side: included. The GCM12SD and LS1219L are miter saws people search for together, compared on their makers' published figures.

Cited for one of the pair: only Bosch's cited pages give current, voltage, bevel capacity and miter capacity; only Makita U.S.A.'s cited pages give arbor and dimensions. The other maker may publish the figure elsewhere; ask it rather than assume the GCM12SD and LS1219L match there.
