Overview
The Milwaukee T28580 is the most expensive band saw in this group at $479.95. It holds a 4.7-star rating across 618 reviews, which is second only to the DEWALT DCS374B in terms of rating strength and represents meaningful buyer validation. Milwaukee's reputation in the trade and professional tool market is well established.
Unfortunately, the listing data does not include published specifications for the T28580. Motor power, blade speed, voltage, weight, and cutting capacity are not available in the current data. Buyers considering this tool at nearly $480 should confirm those details through the full manufacturer or retailer listing before purchasing.
With zero recorded monthly purchases in this data snapshot, the T28580 shows limited active demand at present compared to the DEWALT DCS374B. The 618 total reviews still reflect a solid buyer history, and Milwaukee's service network and battery platform depth add long-term value considerations that raw data alone cannot fully capture.

Cons
- No published specs in the listing: motor, speed, weight, and capacity are unknown
- Priced at $479.95, the highest cost in this band saw group
- Zero recorded monthly purchases indicates limited current sales activity
