Flex has it figured out. Definitely getting this now that my DeWalt is gone. The rack and pinion sold me way back with the DeWalt but I really like how Flex added more, smart, additions - and less cords is always a plus!
Both of these table saws look really nice! If I didn’t already have the Milwaukee m18 table saw, I would look to buy that 10” one. Bummer the 10” doesn’t come with the side extension like the 8-1/4”. Great video thank you!
My guess is they have the same motors but the 8 1/4” has less blade to spin, thus when you were really pushing the 2x material it didn’t bog down like the 10”.
So they copied DeWalt's rack'n'pinion fence system pretty much 1:1, it even attaches to the rails the same way. In fact, the only things I see that are not a complete dewalt rip off are the LED strip in fence and the fold down extension table (which they copied off the Festool CSC SYS 50).
Love flex tools great review was wondering if they accept a dado stack that will be the deciding factor for me please if possible let us know if the do accept a dado stack thank you
Great video thanks. How would you say the power compares to the flexvolt saw. I got rid of the DeWalt as it was under powered when ripping 2x material and chewed batteries way quicker than I could charge them. I feel the AC adaptor could help with this
The CutSense is a safety feature. Clearly it's minimizing exposure, and lessening the chance for kickback. So not at all comparable to SawStop AIM, but I would love to have that as a safety feature.
@@iankm1 as far as i know flex made the first modern angle grinder embossing the name at least in germany ("to flex" means to use an angle grinder) ... dont know if that means anything :D
I'm interested in buying the 10" saw, but I can't seem to find it avertised on their site, or anywhere else, despite having seen it mentioned in a few reviews. Does anyone have a link to find it?

@@fZionists78 It's all about the position of the force. The force should be closer to the blade than the fence, that way the material is encouraged into the fence instead of into the back of the blade.

Thank you for actually pushing the saw. Real working experience.
Unseen integrity for CZcams.
Thanks!

9:32 - and the other benefit could be saving fingers
Turns out, quite a few people got hurt removing the piece and forgetting to stop the saw

Only thing they havent copied is the power lol.
I saw the title and was really hoping “cutsense” was a sawstop type safety mechanism…
If I had the money and space, I'd get both table saws. 😁😁😁

My guess is the 10” didn’t perform well cutting 4x material since it wasn’t shown?
It performs just fine. Other videos demonstrate it well.
And it has two table slots.
Really wish my Dewalt FlexVolt had two slots. And there’s no AC adapter. And the riving knife etc are quite thin.

So not at all comparable to SawStop AIM, but I would love to have that as a safety feature.
Nope. Not at all comparable. It’s superior by every measure…unless you can’t use a saw properly.
…at which point you shouldn’t be using a saw.
This is the table saw I'm still looking for. Battery operated with the option of a cable version. But it's not offered here in Germany!?
I heard the arbors are long enough to accept a dado stack. Is this true?
Awesome Saws .... 👍🖖
You got that right!
The 81/4 most probably appeared stronger because the 10 inch saw was tested with the cut sense feature turned on.
Is flex a good brand? Who’s the parent?
Chervon is the parent company. They own Flex, Ego, and Skil
From the tools Ive used so far it seems like a very promising brand

Best table saw what about festool
Unless your trimming new houses don’t really see the need for a cordless table saw
Makita has the Best Table top Saws! PEROID
Even as a Makita fan myself, what are you smoking? Makita doesn't even make them anymore and the older models have a ton of problems.

@@richardf9137 Their older table saws are solid. I'm talking about the past 15 years. There is a reason they don't make table saws no more.
Poor push-stick technique in my opinion.
Explain
“Too” right? Not enough follow through?
If the stick grips, can’t complain.
