I bought this saw at a local woodworking store while it was on sale a few weeks ago. I had been using a Hitachi CW - 40 which works well for a low end saw, but the DeWalt is a horse of another color - Bright Yellow!  Now, the nuts and bolts: QUIET and vibration free. Big smooth table, easily trued after making angle cuts. The blade tensioner is right there in front and stays where you set it. Likewise, when you re-clamp the blade, just bring it to the tension number you had it on and it stays there. Easy, EASY blade changes. The wing clamps hold the blade by hand tightening alone. I haven't had a blade slip out of the clamps yet. The stand is a must. The rear leg will adjust up or down to give you the table angle that is comfortable for your use. It is fairly tall, but a regular workshop stool will put you at the right height, making it comfortable to work with. The blower is powerful and clears away the dust. It too stays where you place it and it is easier to bend and position that I have found on the other saws. The hold-down clamp works fine, but like most scroll sawyers, I don't use one and I removed it.
