WOOD magazine review

Ridgid Portable Mitersaw Stand

Review Summary

We gave this sturdy stand a workout and like the way it folds up with the saw attached to store on end, out of the way. That saves space and frees up usable square footage in a home shop. When it's time to work, the gas-strut-assisted lift helps raise the 94-lb. stand to working height. Quick-release mounts let you position the saw anywhere along the rail, but the 9944 still comes up a bit short in cut capacity: Maximum distance to a stop is 5'6".
To use a stop, you must raise the roller support, then lower it if the stop is no longer needed; not as handy as a flip-up stop. Those are our only gripes. The wide rail proved useful for corralling small parts or hand tools, the roller work supports don’t sag, and the 12" wheels rolled over everything put in their way, indoors and out.
