difference between makita ls1214f makita ls1214fl

[Scott Francis]

Anyone know what the major difference is between these two saws other than the laser. Price difference of $190 on Makitas website http://www.cpomakita.com/saws/miter_saws/

I can't seem to find a comparison between the two. They both seem the same to me.

Thanks

The FL has a laser guide.

Thanks Van, just couldn't imagine that was the only difference contributing to a $200 price difference.

I think the key is there is a much smaller difference in the "retail price" but the 1214F seems to sell at a deeper discount.
