Ok, but Ridgid MSUV is better
After my recent purchase of a Dewalt DW706 miter saw, it quickly became apparent that I needed a dedicated stand. After researching and reviewing too many choices, the Dewalt DW723 was at the top of my short list. However, then I discovered the Ridgid MSUV (Miter Saw Utility Vehicle). An in-store comparison of the Dewalt and Ridgid sealed the deal. The MSUV directly addressed all of the features not available on the Dewalt, specifically not wanting to carry the saw and miter stand. The MSUV has two VERY large wheels, folds up and unfolds in seconds, and, best of all, the miter saw bolts to the stand: one compact package to move. In less time than it takes to type these words, the MSUV unfolds and is ready for action. Likewise, it folds up to an easily transported (rolled around, up and down stairs) platform in seconds. Equally important, the MSUV stores in a space about the size of a desk chair, with the saw still attached. I strongly encourage everyone to check out the Ridgid MSUV before purchasing the Dewalt DW723.
almost perfect , but could be better
Any one who uses this stand daily knows how handy it is , it's light , easy to set up and break down , and is pretty compact. I use it for a dewalt 12" miter saw. The stand beats the hell out of dragging out saw horses and a cutting board for most jobs.^M
What could be better ?^M

1. Two of the material supports are not enough if you are working with long material, I immediately purchased another set which really helped out.^M
2. The material support/stops really need to be wider, another two inches at least. when cutting 7 1/2" base , it has two be laying down and is constantly sliding off the narrow supports.^M

Hope the review is helpful , overall I am very satisfied with the stand and would buy again without a second thought about it.
It works!
This gizmo is perfect for a woodworker like me with limited garage space. My wife demands that her car has priority. That forces me to clean up and be somewhat tidy. I have many tools that I will attach DeWalt brackes on so I can use the saw stand more effectively. There are others out there now. As far as I'm concerned, the DW723 has it all. Excellent engineering and fabrication. 10 stars? Yes!
