The DEWALT 12-Inch Double-Bevel Compound Miter Saw with XPS Cutline (DWS716XPS) is a professional-grade tool built for accurate, repeatable cuts. Powered by a 15-amp motor that spins at 3,800 rpm, this saw handles crown molding, baseboards, framing, and furniture parts with ease. The double-bevel design lets you tilt the blade left or right, while the stainless-steel detent plate provides 14 positive stops for fast angle selection.
The stainless-steel miter detent plate resists wear, so your angles stay true project after project. Tall sliding fences support 6-5/8-inch nested crown molding and 6-1/2-inch base molding vertically, giving you stable support for large trim pieces. The cam lock miter handle with detent override lets you fine-tune angles quickly.
The integrated XPS light projects a shadow line onto your workpiece, showing the exact blade path with no adjustment. If the cutline light isn't working, check the light switch and clean the contacts. For alignment, use the adjustment screws on the light module to move the shadow left or right, matching it to the blade kerf. The LED assembly is serviceable and can be replaced if needed—refer to your owner's manual for the correct part.
Bevel from 0° to 48° to the left or right, with positive stops at 22.5°, 33.9°, and 45°. The miter angle adjusts from 0° to 50° in both directions. That range makes it a versatile choice for intricate trim work.
A built-in carry handle and high-efficiency dust duct keep this saw manageable on and off the jobsite. The dust port connects to a shop vac or dust collector for cleaner work areas.
15-amp motor delivers 3,800 rpm for clean cuts in hardwoods and softwoods.
Double-bevel design tilts left and right for versatile angle cuts.
Stainless-steel miter detent plate with 14 positive stops ensures repeatable accuracy.
XPS LED cutline light projects a shadow line for precise cuts without calculation.

If the cutline light stops working, first verify the switch is in the correct position and the power supply (if battery-operated) has charge. Clean the contacts with a dry cloth and reseat the battery pack. For alignment issues, make a shallow cut in scrap wood, then adjust the light's horizontal screws until the shadow matches the gouge. If the LED itself fails, replacement modules are available through DEWALT service centers.
Beveling both left and right means you can cut compound miters without flipping the workpiece upside down. That's a big time saver when you're installing crown molding around a room.
The fences slide to support pieces vertically and horizontally. This prevents material from tipping during the cut, which is critical for clean, safe cuts on big moldings.
Check the light switch and make sure the battery/contacts are clean and properly seated. If the LED module has failed, it can be replaced—see your manual for the correct part number and installation steps.
Use the adjustment screws on the light module to shift the shadow line left or right. Make test cuts on scrap wood until the shadow aligns exactly with the blade kerf.
Yes, the tall sliding fences and double-bevel capacity let you cut nested crown molding up to 6-5/8 inches vertically, which is ideal for 4-1/2 to 6-inch crown.
Yes, it comes with a 12-inch 60-tooth carbide blade suitable for general-purpose cutting.
Yes, the LED module is serviceable. Turn off the saw, disconnect power, and follow the manual's instructions. If you're unsure, contact a qualified technician.
Cuts like butter.
I'm 44 and I used it to do all the baseboards in my house. The laser guide is helpful, and it made miter joints tight. It took a little while to set up, but worth it.
I'm 41 and run a small cabinet shop and this miter saw is now my go-to. The XPS light is a game changer; you can see exactly where the blade will cut. The double bevel lets me do compound angles without flipping the stock. The fence is tall enough for crown molding lying flat. Setting the detent plate was straightforward. I've made hundreds of cuts and the accuracy is spot on. Highly recommend it to anyone who does serious woodworking.
I'm 24 and new to woodworking and this saw is a bit intimidating but it's actually not that bad. The manual is clear and the safety features are solid. I made a few picture frames and they came out square. The only thing is it's heavy, so I set it up on a stand.
After 40 years of carpentry, I've used plenty of saws. This one is as accurate as any I've owned. The bevel adjustments lock tight and the XPS light makes alignment easy, even for my aging eyes. The cast iron base is heavy but stable. It's a pleasure to use.
This saw is incredibly precise. The laser guide is spot on and the fence is sturdy. I've used it for crown molding and it handled it perfectly. It was a bit pricey but worth it.
I've had this saw for a month. It cuts well, but the bevel scale was off by about half a degree. I had to adjust it with a square. Once set, it's accurate. The XPS light is great.
Just used it to frame a shed. It did the job, no complaints. The dust bag could be better, but that's minor.
I'm not a professional, just a DIYer. The saw is fine for basic cuts, but the blade that came with it isn't great. I had to buy a better one to get clean cuts. Also, the bevel lock is a bit stiff. Once I upgraded the blade, it's been better.
This is my third DeWalt miter saw and the best yet. The XPS light is a huge improvement. I cut crown molding flat and it was perfect. The sliding fence is great for supporting long pieces. Very happy.
The cuts are very accurate and the laser helps. It's really heavy to move around. I have it on a mobile stand so it's manageable. If you need a stationary saw, this is a good choice.
I've owned this saw for two months and I'm impressed. The build quality is excellent, and the XPS light works even in bright conditions. I've done baseboard, casing, and crown molding with perfect results. It's a heavy machine, but that's a sign of quality. This will likely outlast me.
