It also advertises "soft start" which only seems to mean that you're spending time with your thumb on the trigger waiting for the fucking thing to spin up.
My miter saw is decently powerful, but lightweight. When it starts, it acts like it's been kicked. It bucks a bit. It's enough that if you're holding a long piece of wood, supported on the table or a sawhorse, and holding it against the fence, the saw can shift while the wood stays in place, enough to screw up the squareness of a cut.
