First ask yourself why do you need a sliding compound miter saw,if you are
only planning on installing a hard wood floor.

I plan on putting some hardwood floors in my house in the next month
or so, and it's a perfect opportunity to buy a miter saw. I looked at
a Dewalt compound miter saw that seemed pretty good for I believe
$300, but then right next to it, we have a sliding miter saw. What's
the advantage? Why would I need one? Will it just cut a wider board?
