I was hesitant to pay almost $400 for a stand, but found myself planning to swing by Menards on my way home from work to pick one up. My hesitancy caused me to do a quick search online for deals before pulling the trigger. I was happy to discover a $75 coupon on Amazon was available. Paired with 5% cash back on the Prime Visa, all my hesitance melted away!Set up took about an hour, and probably would have only been 45 minutes, had it not been 95 degrees and I'd not been in a hurry to get out of the screaming sun. If you follow directions and look at the diagrams carefully, it's totally possible to get it right the first time.I used the stand for the first time the weekend after purchasing it, and I've never had such a great experience working with my mitre saw. The stand is sturdy, durable, and the extending support arms made working with larger pieces of lumber a breeze. Really beats working on the makeshift table I'd put together for working. The ease of setup, closure, and transport makes me use my saw more frequently. Well worth the investment, and I highly recommend this stand to anyone looking for an upgrade or first purchase.

I was happy with the price and quality of the Bosch folding stand. I was looking at the Rigid but decided to go with the Bosch Anti Gravity stand. It arrived with no damage and was well packed. Assembly was pretty easy after watching a YouTube video and referring to the assembly manual. It didn’t take that long. Be sure not to over tighten the lock nuts where the stand folds. They are meant to be tightened with just enough friction to secure the nut and bolt but loose enough to allow the stand to easily fold. It is built heavy duty and supports the Makita 1219L perfectly with the adjustable mounting nuts. I really like the levelling adjustment bolts on the front frame. One pull on the small red locking lever and a pull on the main red large lever and the unit folds easily. Make sure you are hanging on though as it will drop fast. Would I recommend this Bosch Anti Gravity miter saw stand ...ABSOLUTELY .. just buy it!

I've been hesitant to buy this stand because of the price. Finally purchased it with a coupon, however, still a considerable deal of investment until I used it... What a surprise!Instructions were ok, however, the rail assembly gave me a hard time and, by installing bolts on the bottom first, it solved the issue.Since I have a 1 car garage, space utilisation is a top priority and having the chance to fold my saw away when not in use it's a great improvement for my shop. I've worked with 8ft stock, cutting at different lengths and the extensions were extremely firm on both sides. There's an adequate stopper for repetitive cuts but, I prefer marking all my cuts.Although I gave it 5 stars, there's one little thing I'd like differently: when folded, there's no rubber protecting the metal base. I would hate seeing my new and expensive stand scratched by the concrete. For now, it rests on a piece of cardboard.

I have a Bosch CM10GD and it is a beast in the weight department. I don't like cutting in the garage, so I was constantly lifting this thing and carrying it outside, setting up a stand and then reversing the procedure when I was finished. It was a chore and something I didn't look forward to.I looked at a number of stands, but none quite did everything I wanted... until this one. It's stable, has great support for material, stores the saw vertically to save space, fits a number of saws, and is very well built. But the best part is you can be up and running quickly.It now takes me less than 1 minute to have the saw set up and ready to cut. 30 seconds to wheel it out of the garage, another 10 seconds to open it and a few more seconds to plug it in. That's it. When I'm done, I simply reverse the process and it's back in the garage, securely stored, in under a minute.If you can get past the price, you will not be disappointed with this stand. There are certainly less expensive stands available, but none I've seen can touch this one. And if you can't get past the price, forgo a couple dinners out and get this one anyways -- that's how good it is.

The Bosch T4B Gravity-Rise Miter Saw Stand is big, heavy, and expensive. It also works flawlessly and can be handled by one person.I used to lug my Bosch 10" dual-bevel compound mitre saw outside every time I wanted to make a cut so that I didn't fill the basement with sawdust. That saw is heavy and awkward to move alone, and it was hard on my joints. I did that for 5 years, all the while coveting this stand. I found it hard to justify the price tag. I bought the Bosch table saw this year for another project and got a taste of the gravity-Rise stand in action. That was the difference.I bought the mitre saw stand, and I don't regret it. It makes moving the saw much easier (it's still some work as the saw and stand are very heavy). The built-in support extensions on the stand are excellent too.I am happy with it. No regrets.

I matched this stand with a Bosch a GCM12SD Glide Mitre Saw which is a very heavy machine. It makes the movement of the saw effortless, is very good quality and the Amazon price, for some reason, was way lower than I could find anywhere else.This stand is much the same as the one Bosch supplies with some table saw models. I also have one of those and the only way to describe them is, AWESOME! They just make the movement of the tools effortless! They fold down and open up with ease. I wish I had these stands years ago.Work wise, the stand is solid. The saw attaches easily and the extension of the rails is the best I have seen. The material stops on the rails are great for cutting multiples. A great stand!

I have had a lot of different miter saw stands with a lot of different miter saws. I own the Bosch TS4100 table saw which I purchased with the table saw version of the Gravity-Rise Stand. I loved it so much that when it was time to buy another Miter Saw I looked at this product first and compared it to other stands. While this was the most expensive stand I looked at I decided it was worth the extra expense because of my own experiences.1) Just like the Gravity-Rise stand on my TS4100, it is solidly built of steel. (the top rail that the saw clamps to on the T4B is aluminum).2) This is hands down the fastest stand to set up. I can literally get it out of the truck and have it set up and cutting in just over a minute. (provided I don't have to run an extension cord) Really! When time is money this is extremely important. The more time it takes me to set up means the less time I have to make a living, it adds up.3) You can leave the saw on the stand without ever taking it off... Ever. It can stay on for storage, transport, or stay configured as a long term work station and it is stable in all configurations.4) If you need to take the saw off because you want to place on a bench or you have to go through a very narrow space then you just need to twist tow nobs and the part of the stand that holds the saw to the top rail comes off and moves with the saw. It even has rubber feet on it so you can use the saw that way without the stand. It is rare that you would but have on occasion needed to do this.5) The wheels on the stand are of good size, wide, and I believe pneumatic which lets the saw roll over what ever you need to on a job site like; Soft dirt, rocks, scraps of framing lumber, air hoses, extension cords, up stairs, door thresholds, grass, etc.6) I put the "Hitachi C12RSH 15 Amp 12-Inch Sliding Compound Miter Saw with Laser" on this stand. This is a VERY HEAVY saw. This stand lets you move it around with ease. Some of my older miter saw stands needed to be broken down to move from place to place and this saw is heavy enough that I feel fortunate I don't need to do that hardly ever.7) This stand costs almost as much as the saw itself which at first is hard to swallow. In the end though I have found that the stand either makes or breaks the saw. If you stand sucks then so does the saw and visa versa. I have a great saw, a great stand, everything is easy to use. This makes for a better product and better productivity.The list can keep going but hopefully I have made my point. Yes it is expensive but all I can say it is money well spent. I am very happy with this stand and I would buy it again if I without a second thought. If you find a better, more easy to use stand that is as versatile I would like to know about it because I have looked. I have owned nine other stands pervious, more if you count the ones I have built myself. I can confidently say from my point of view that there is nothing better.Even when I look at this thing from a shop saw point of view it makes sense. When I used to keep the saw on the bench it got in the way. My folding miter stands also got in the way because they were to much of a pain to take apart a set up so I would leave them set up all the time and against the wall. This stand lets me put the saw away when I don't need it, boom extra space. The set it up again when I need it, boom instant saw when I need it. I have 900sqft of shop floor, might sound like a lot but it gets small fast. This stand also lets me stay flexible and versatile with my shop space and layout.Expensive but definitely worth it. My saw is better because of the stand.
