DEWALT D28715 review

A site machine from a brand with a spares chain — and a listing that publishes almost nothing else.

Where we come out A good machine sold by a listing that tells you nothing. Buy it for the badge and the spares, not for the sheet.

What is verified

Manufacturer, model, part number D28715-QS, 2,200 W, and a reference that resolves on all six Amazon stores — the only chop saw in this batch that does. For a tool bought by people who work in more than one country, that is worth something.

What is not

No cut capacity, no vice description, no mitre range, no weight. Machines at half the price on this page publish all four. We leave the fields empty rather than borrow figures from a similar model, and this paragraph is here so the gap is visible rather than silent.

Sources

Every figure above comes from the manufacturer’s published specification for this reference. Fields the listing does not publish are left out rather than estimated. Market availability was verified per market on the EAN.

What it handles, and what it will not

Strengths

  • DEWALT service and spares availability across Europe and the United States
  • The only chop saw in this batch live on all six markets
  • Built for site use rather than for a bench

Compromises

  • The listing publishes two lines: power and voltage
  • €341 against €180 for the metabo, with nothing published to justify it
  • No vice, mitre range or cut capacity stated

The questions welders ask

Why so little detail on an expensive machine?

Because the Amazon listing carries almost nothing — power and voltage, repeated. DEWALT publishes a full sheet for the D28715 elsewhere, and we do not restate figures we cannot source from the listing or from documentation for this exact reference. What is verified here is the manufacturer, the model, the part number and the availability on six markets.

Is it worth twice the metabo?

On what is published, no — and that is the honest answer rather than a hedge. If you buy it, buy it for the service network and the site-tool build, both of which are real and neither of which appears as a number. If you want a specification to compare, the metabo publishes one.

Our score
