Description of Bosch T4B Gravity-Rise Miter Saw StandThe T4B Gravity Rise Miter Saw Stand is constructed of heavy duty powder coated 1 1/2 tubular steel. The T4B features Boschs patented gravity rise system, for quick and easy set up and breakdown. With a simple turn of the release lever and some slight downward pressure, the weight and balance of the saw will raise the stand and saw and lock it into working position. Turn the same release lever again to fold the stand and saw and you are ready to roll it easily to the next location. This unit features 8 inch pneumatic wheels that go over just about any jobsite terrain. The T4B utilizes an aluminum support rail and special Universal Rapid-Release Tool Mounts designed to attach to the base of all Bosch and most competitors miter saws. These mounts allow any user to quickly attach or detach the saw to the stand. And rubber-Feet prevent scratches when placing the tool on a cabinet top or bench. The same support rails expand for 18-Feet total material support, the highest among fully portable units. For users cutting long pieces of molding or flooring, this kind of support is priceless. Adjustable repetitive stops and table supports also allow the stand to adapt to varying applications and saws. The Bosch TB4 gravity-rise miter saw stand features the patented gravity rise system, and rapid set up and breakdown. It has an 18-inch material capacity which is the highest capacity among fully portable units. It has 8-inch pneumatic wheels which facilitate ease of transport over jobsite terrain.

Tools and Hardware Reviews of Bosch T4B Gravity-Rise Miter Saw StandCustomer Review: Excellent Miter Saw Stand Summary: 5 Stars
This is quite simply the best miter saw stand available today. The only other contenders for this title are possibly the Delta 36-136, the Trojan MS-2000, the Trojan TWC-35, and the Ridgid MS-UV. So what makes the Bosch better than the also-rans? Let me tell you:
Delta 36-136 - This is a nice stand, but it was not sufficiently stable for my saw. In addition, the wheels were flimsy and prone to getting stuck in mud.
Ridgid MS-UV - This stand is good, however it does not setup as quickly as the Bosch, and storing a heavy saw on this stand when it is folded up takes up a lot of space.
Trojan MS2000 - This stand is basically the Ridgid MS-UV on steroids, and is the closest contender to the Bosch. It is heavy duty, but it does not set up as quickly as the Bosch, and it has the same storage issues as the Ridgid.
Trojan TWC35 - This stand isn't a cart stand, so it isn't as portable, however, it is the sturdiest and most heavy duty of the stands. If speed, elbow grease and storage space aren't issues, then it beats everything else.
Bosch T4B - It's tougher than everything but the Trojan TWC35. It sets up and breaks down faster than anything else out there. You can store the whole system in the upright folded position, so it saves space. It has great wheels, and a quick disconnect feature to remove the saw from the stand. The only negative thing I can say about it is that it's made in China.
*****Update (3/26/2009)*****
I've had it about a year, and it's still going strong. The only maintenance it has required is that I had to air up the tires. One thing I haven't done yet but would recommend doing is considering replacing the inflatable rubber wheels with flat-free wheels. Right now, I'm having to worry about running over nails and sharp objects which slows me down, and when the wheels go flat, this thing gets really difficult to move.
