Let’s have a look at tool’s capabilities, design, performance and durability before putting it on the ultimate test of average user ratings and review, which may turn out to be something surprising. DEWALT’s D28715 is under the radar these days for a higher rating and great reviews. We will find all about this tool before jumping to a conclusion.

Delivers Without Compromising on Economy

The DEWALT 14-Inch Quick-Change Chop Saw is designed to deliver without any hassles and has been awarded a frustration-free certificate. The D-shape handle is designed ergonomically so you have the best handling position. Unlike long handles pointing towards a user, this handle reduces user fatigue over longer tasks. The lock button will release stress of long presses from your finger and you can press the trigger again to release the lock button.

The blade changing is tool-less, obviously, with the QUICK CHANGE™ system. This model also features exclusive QUICK-FENCE™ technology with a capacity of 45°. This feature enables you to adjust fence for precise position cuts without using a wrench. This wrench-less design reduces adjustment time and increases productivity.

Faster & More Powerful

The motor on the DEWALT D28715 Chop Saw is really powerful, better than before and offers 5.5 horsepower. It consumes 15-amp and delivers consistent performance at 120V AC via a power cord. This amount of power enables a user to cut 4.5 x 6.5-inch rectangular metal with impressive 4000 RPM (no load). It will produce a lot of sparks and you can adjust spark guard accordingly. No chain is required in the presence of a lock-down pin, which locks the head when you carry it.

This model is also equipped with a spindle lock that makes wheel changing faster and easier. There is a QUICK-LOCK vise for fast clamping and extra wide solid steel base that allows an operator to weld jigs. It has a heavy-duty compression spring for smooth movement and motor brushes are easily accessible to minimize interruption.
