Everyone they tested had some good points.

They didn't even test a Festool. *;-)

I switched to a makita last time because it had a cast plate instead
of stamped steel. I agree about the worm gear ones but they are just
too expensive for my taste. I have a portable stand mounted dewalt
sliding coumpound miter for big jobs. I only use the the handheld
circular for odds and ends. If I have to cut a lot of boards I get
out the compound miter.
