SS2875XL Woodshop miter saw stand. Sturdy all metal construction and powder coated finish. Easy fold up/down wings for quick setup and compact storage when not in use. Includes SS3800L stop system which measures approx. 84 inches from blade. Saw platform measures 36 by 19-1/4 inches. Designed for saws with wider bases and sliding back fences, such as Delta 36-235K, Bosch 3912B/3915B, Porter-Cable 3802/3807, Makita LS1211/1212, DeWalt DW705/708 & Milwaukee 6496/6497. Now includes XB 75XL cross brace kit.
Wood magazine loves this stand, and for good reason. It is truly high quality, it's hefty and stable, and this XL model is 9 inches wider than its little brother, the SS2875, so it accommodates even the biggest miter saws--up to 36 inches wide. Rugged, industrial locking casters roll smoothly; the wings fold down easily for storage with quick-release hinges if you're short on space. The powder-coated finish will stand up to anything, and the cross-bracing offers added stability. This larger model lets you set a stop all the way out to 84 inches. Optional accessories are available, and we suggest picking up a hand truck kit for extra portability. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste

nice idea poorly executed. waste of money.:
First off, I got this item from woodcraft for $369. much cheaper than amazon. Sadly it is kind of junky at any price.

The only good part seems to be the fence, which you can buy separately if you want for about $100. you will probably need to order one anyway, since it comes from the factory with only the left hand fence. The welding leaves something to be desired. the welded on... more info
Poor quality control:
Rousseau has to get their quality control improved. I received one of their 2875 miter saw stands today. Assembly was simple enough except for the casters. 3 had hard rubber rollers , the 4th was hard plastic, had a different locking mechanism, and had a shaft 3/8" shorter than the others which caused the whole assembly to rock. I fixed the problem by adding some extra washers onto the shaft. But, I think after spending almost $500 on this product it should come with all the correct parts. Not impressed
Disappointed:
The good: It appears that the instructions have been updated since some of the earlier comments were made. Still they leave something to be desired. I like the powder-coated finish. Looks durable.
The bad: Let's start with the assembly. There are some serious fabrication flaws from misaligned mounting tabs to malfunctioning table extension lock-out mechanisms. The thinness of the sheet metal on the saw mounting table is also a problem. When I mounted my Bosch compound miter saw, the table bounced... more info
worth every penny:
If your saw never leaves your shop, this is ideal. Built well and easy to assemble, I am very happy with this purchase. THe stand is very portable and folds down easily.
