Review: Makita 2705 - If you're looking for the best portable table saw, here it is. I've used my boss' Bosch portable saw for seven years or so, and I love it, but this one is even better. This saw is very similar to the Bosch portable as far as quality, engineering, and features. The Makita is just bigger and badder! It's heavier too, but you'll have to deal with it, because if you want precision, longevity, and efficiency, you're going to want this saw. I just looked at the DeWalt portable at the store too, and I can tell you that it has some nice features, but if you want something you'll have forever, the Makita 2705 is your saw (and you do want your saw forever!) I bought the Makita 2705 never having seen it before, because I can't find one locally. I trust Makita wholeheartedly, and I'm glad I did. Most of my stuff is Makita because they not only have a reputation for quality, but their tools are just damn fun to use, comfortable, and user friendly. My local tool shop owner stands by their stuff too, and he urged me to check it out. You can forget about the negative reviews on this saw, because Makita must have fixed the fence problem since then. I don't know what the old one was like, but this saw comes with the best rip fence I've seen in a tie with Bosch's. If you don't know already, the rip fence is an ESSENTIAL part of the saw. It's what makes the saw accurate. It's one major reason you need a table saw in the first place. The Makita fence (like Bosch's) is a strong, sturdy, single piece of aluminum tubing basically, which means it's stronger than most other fences like DeWalts', which is a flimsy "L" shaped aluminum piece with only two sides to get strength from. Makita's rip fence slides smoothly across the nice, flat table. The Makita has a great, precise magnifying lens to view your ripping measurements (like Bosch's.) This saw is a little larger and certainly more powerful than Bosch's, with a higher RPM. The Makita is the only 10 inch table saw I know that can rip all the way through 4x material in one pass. That is a huge feature in itself. The table extension extends very smoothly and squarely, just like you want it to. It has two locking levers that function solidly. The rip measurements are easy to read; made on nice metal plates, recessed in the metal slide so they won't wear off. The blade height adjustment wheel has a nice feel and sturdy sound to it when you raise and lower the blade. Nice feel and sound to the on/off switch as well; easy to use even with gloves on. The bevel adjustment lock is basically the same as Bosch's too, which is the best on the market. Although the Makita requires you to turn the bevel adjustment wheel to adjust bevel angle, instead of just pushing the bevel mechanism like Bosch's. Both brands features have their pros and cons in the bevel department. To use this saw on the job, I bought the Bosch gravity rise stand, because it's the best, fastest, strongest, and easiest to use of the ones I've seen. I tried the DeWalt one (which is light and portable, but flimsy), and I can tell you the Bosch is better hands down in quality, strength, and ergonomics. Review: and glad I did - After shopping around a bit, I settled on this Makita 2705, and glad I did. I had an old 2703 model that was simply worn out from 2 decades of service (home hobbyist/DIY guy). I could not get the 2703 to move completely over to 45 degrees angle, and yes, I checked it thoroughly for obstructions. But it's table was small and the bothersome Miter gauge (channel) was only an 8th of an inch thick! My 2705 arrived from desertcart with the box in perfect condition...no holes or break-throughs. This saw is double boxed, and is completely assembled except for the blade. It is a bit heavy for just one person to lift out of the top of the box, so after a careful inspection of the underside of the saw (unfolding the bottom flaps), I was satisfied that I wasn't going to need the shipping boxes for a return. So I set the box on a folding table and simply cut away the cardboard sides. A couple of measurements that are NOT shown in the specifications is the width and depth of the base of the saw. This is kinda nice to know when planning on where you are going to mount it. (I have no plans on needing the rolling stand so I saved myself $225 bucks). I planned on adapting the stand from the 2703. Anyway, the measurements of the base of this saw is 28.5" (width) x 25.5" (depth). Furthermore, the measurements for the mounting holes (center to center) are: 20.75" (width) x 24.5" (depth). These holes are about 3/8" in diameter, so I used 5/16" bolts. (I used carriage bolts just to cover the top hole). There is a flat area at each hole in case you want to make a 1"x2" flat washer. But realistically, you don't want to tighten down on the plastic; just snug enough so the table doesn't move around. To adapt the old stand, I bolted down some planks of plywood to expand the base. I also attached 4 lockable rolling casters like these to the bottom of all four corners of the base: https://www.desertcart.com/Heavy-Swivel-Caster-Wheels-Degree/dp/B01IGQ1M38/ref=pd_sim_60_3?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=P0FCZVGJTFWKZP1623VX It was then just a matter of shifting the table saw over to the base and bolting it down. (see photos). I really haven't used the saw yet to give it a performance review, but I don't expect any problems. We have to realize that this is not a "full-size" table saw like a Powermatic (don't I wish), which are bigger, heavier, and much more expensive. But for the home DIY/hobby guy, it's perfect....and far more precise than the old 2703. I also appreciate the expanding right-side rail to hold charger sheets of wood. No, the fence does NOT fit onto the extension. I also appreciate that Makita offers extensions for the back and left side of this saw....I'll be ordering those next. I've never assembled the safety blade guard on my saws simply because they get in the way taking fence to blade measurements. I'm all for safety and will always use safety glasses and hearing protection. I might give this guard a try just to see how I like it and/or how easy it is to use. I also like that the dust port exit in the rear of the saw is exactly the right size for me to plug my ShopVac into without an adapter. I also like that there is a designated place under the saw table to store the rip fence. The only thing I wish Makita would do is to put a clip on the back of their power plugs so that you can clip it onto the cable after winding between the two spools. Anyway, that's it. So far, I really like this saw. Space in my small garage comes at a premium, so this will fit nicely. Thanks for reading. ## Features - Powerful 15 AMP motor delivers 4,800 RPM for improved performance - Large cutting capacity (3-9/16" at 90Β° and 2-1/2" at 45Β°) can rip 4x material in one pass; can use up to a 13/16" dado blade - Right extension table allows for greater cutting capacity with the capability to rip 4x8 sheets of plywood - Extended capacity with up to 25" ripping - Tool-less modular blade guard system with an adjustable riving knife/spreader ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0027FFKWY | | Blade Length | 10 Inches | | Blade Material | High Speed Steel | | Blade Shape | Rectangular | | Brand | Makita | | Brand Name | Makita | | Color | Turquoise | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 out of 5 stars 150 Reviews | | Cutting Angle | 90 Degrees | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00088381093279 | | Handle Material | Plastic | | Included Components | Bare Tool | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 36"L x 32"W x 15.3"H | | Item Weight | 82 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Makita | | Manufacturer Part Number | 2705 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | 1 Year | | Model Number | 2705 | | Number of Batteries | 1 Lithium Ion batteries required. | | Number of Teeth | 30 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Brake | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Special Feature | Brake | | Speed | 4800 RPM | | Surface Recommendation | Wood | | UPC | 088381093279 | | Warranty Type | 1-year warranty | | Wattage | 1800 watts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Makita - **Blade Material:** High Speed Steel - **Surface Recommendation:** Wood - **Power Source:** Corded Electric - **Special Feature:** Brake ## Images ![Makita 2705 10" Table Saw - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61wvrI8sJLL.jpg) ![Makita 2705 10" Table Saw - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71k-Rrpgv-L.jpg) ![Makita 2705 10" Table Saw - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71imNJaiK7L.jpg) ![Makita 2705 10" Table Saw - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71Ry9wYeDBL.jpg) ![Makita 2705 10" Table Saw - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71h3b9+kTyL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: size of the box** A: What is the size of the box refer to? **Q: Can someone confirm the 25-inch rip capacity? I'm working on some cabinets and need to be able to divide 4x8 plywood sheets length-wise.** A: No contractor saw is adequate to rip 25" cabinet slabs. Can be done but that's not the point. It is the wrong tool period. If you want to build cabinets get a good track saw to rip the plywood and a Festool Multi Function Table to square up the individual cabinet panels. Safety is an issue also to consider. Pushing an 8' piece of plywood through a small saw like this is a bad idea! **Q: Where is the Makita 2705 made?** A: Can confirm - "assembled" in USA. **Q: Wich is the size of the box?** A: Blade Diameter 10"Arbor 5/8"Max.

The fence moves when bumped hard by the pieces im cutting. Very disappointing. Otherwise it's a great saw. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/1091660-makita-2705-10-table-saw](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/1091660-makita-2705-10-table-saw) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-06-02*
