Rank #10 in Best Mitre Saw 2026: 10 Ranked, and the Numbers That Don't Add Up
Scheppach HM216L 216mm Mitre Saw with UMF1600 Stand
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Scheppach HM216L is a 2000 W corded sliding mitre saw with a 216 mm blade, sold together with the UMF1600 universal mitre saw stand and priced at £209.00. It sits at number ten in this guide, rated 4.4 out of 5 from 94 ratings, with 91 of those 94 ratings at four stars or better. Its speed figures, unusually for this guide, agree with each other: the bullet says 4,700 rpm and the specification table says 4700 RPM.
What does not agree is the size line. The same listing gives Item Dimensions as 73.5L x 59.3W x 551H centimetres — a 5.5 metre tall machine — and Item Weight as 24.3 kg. It also counts the product as "Number of Items: 1" while naming three separate pieces under Included Components: the HM216 mitre saw, a spare blade, and the UMF1600 stand. The 216 mm blade, the 2000 W motor and the 4,700 rpm all hold together across the page; the height figure does not. Everything here is taken from the Amazon listing itself — we have not tested the saw.
