Dual compound is not necessary unless you’re building weird geometric sculptures or trimming out a Gothic mansion. All of the slide and glide features are nothing but an unnecessary point of failure. Some of them work OK though. https://www.homedepot.com/p/DEWALT-15-Amp-Corded-12-in-Single-Bevel-Compound-Miter-Saw-DWS715/309749587?MERCH=REC-_-pipsem-_-308351915-_-309749587-_-N This one is my favorite. I strongly recommend buying the cheaper saw and spending your extra money on the most expensive sawblades you can possibly put on it. You also have to keep the motherfucker lubed. Most kickbacks from these are caused when one of the multiple pivot points or sliders seizes up a little. The blade guard thingies are particularly problematic. I like the LPS brand lubricants. I forget which one you need. I think it is the non-silicone dry film one. Can’t have silicone because it will contaminate the wood you’re cutting, and it has to be a dry film lube so dust doesn’t stick to it. edit; If you really need a sliding one so you can cut crown on the flat with the dinky little small diameter saw blade, I have a Makita 10 inch slider that has been a workhorse for about 18 years. Hopefully their new ones are just as good?
