DeWalt Wet Tile Saw Stand

Why I wanted a dedicated stand

After too many jobs balancing a 10-inch wet saw on sawhorses and makeshift platforms, I finally committed to a purpose-built stand. I wanted something that set up quickly, held a full-size saw solidly, and gave me control over working height without eating up a bunch of van space. The DeWalt stand checked those boxes on paper: all-metal construction, four height positions, and a folding design that stores flat. After several weeks of cutting everything from dense porcelain to stone, I’ve got a clear sense of where this stand shines—and where it leaves room for improvement.

Setup and compatibility

Getting the stand up and running is straightforward. It folds open, locks into position, and the mounting pattern aligns cleanly with DeWalt’s 10-inch wet saws. I mounted a D24000 for most of my testing and also checked fitment with a D36000—both sit square and secure with no fiddling or shimming required. If you’re in the DeWalt ecosystem with a 10-inch tile saw, compatibility is essentially a non-issue. If you’re hoping to pair it with a different brand, plan on verifying the mounting pattern before you commit; this isn’t marketed as a universal stand.

Once the saw is on, the footprint feels well proportioned to the load. The published dimensions are about 35.5 inches long by 26.5 inches wide when folded; in working position, the stance is wide enough to feel confident without hogging the whole workspace.

Stability and cut support

For wet saws, the real test of a stand is what happens when the water tray is full, the pump is humming, and you’re pushing heavy tile through. In use, the stand is impressively rigid. I didn’t experience racking or twist when ripping long porcelain planks, and there wasn’t any distracting bounce when plunge-cutting stone. That stiffness translates to smoother cuts and fewer micro-deflections at the blade, which matters on chippy materials.

The legs plant firmly and, on a reasonably flat slab or subfloor, the stand stays rock solid. On uneven ground you may have to shim or reposition—it doesn’t have adjustable leveling feet—so keep a few cedar shims or a scrap of backer board handy for outdoor setups.

Height adjustments and ergonomics

The four-position height adjustment is the feature I didn’t know I needed until I started using it all day. On standing cuts, I prefer the top position; it keeps my back upright and brings the table to a comfortable hand height. For delicate work—miters on a cap, or scribing a tricky notch—I drop the stand one position and get better sightlines without bending awkwardly. If you’re shorter or working in a confined space, you can go lower still.

Changing height is quick and repeatable. The mechanism is simple, positive, and doesn’t feel like it will loosen up over time. There are no stamped-thin parts or vague detents; everything engages fully, and you can hear and feel when it’s locked. Ergonomically, this makes a difference on longer days—fine control and better posture mean less fatigue and more accurate cuts.

Portability and storage

Portability is a strong suit. At around 13 pounds, the stand is light enough to carry with one hand, and it folds flat for easy transport. Folded thickness is minimal, and it slides into the van alongside sheet goods without snagging. In the shop, it tucks against a wall or under a bench without stealing precious square footage. The all-metal design avoids the creaks and flex you sometimes get with mixed-material stands.

One thing to note: there are no wheels or casters on the stand. If your workflow involves rolling a saw around a large site, you’ll be lifting and repositioning it rather than wheeling it from cut to cut. That’s fine for most bathroom and kitchen jobs where the saw lives on a balcony, garage, or driveway, but on big commercial floors you’ll notice the absence.

Durability and build quality

The build is exactly what I expect from a jobsite-focused stand: steel components, clean welds, and a finish that holds up to wet use. The black coating resists scuffs and hasn’t shown signs of flaking or corrosion on my unit. I’m careful to wipe the stand down after especially wet sessions, which I recommend for any metal stand living in a spray zone.

The joints and locking hardware feel overbuilt in the right way—no loose play, no mystery flex, and no need to “baby” the stand as you fold or load it. It’s one of those pieces of kit you stop thinking about because it just works and doesn’t demand attention.

Real-world workflow

On a bathroom remodel, I staged the saw outside and spent two days bouncing between long plank rips, diagonal cuts on 12x24 porcelain, and detailed notches. The stand’s top height kept my shoulders relaxed during repetitive rips. Dropping a notch for finer work made visibility better and reduced neck strain. When cutting heavier stone thresholds, the stand did not telegraph vibration back into the saw—cuts stayed straight and consistent.

In a kitchen backsplash scenario, I lowered the stand to better align with a benchtop staging area. Having those four discrete heights proved surprisingly helpful for setting up an efficient production line—cut, dry, and stage without constantly bending over.

What could be better

• Mobility: The absence of wheels or lockable casters is the main drawback for me. A wheel kit or an integrated dolly mode would make moving the whole setup across a site much easier, especially when the tray is loaded with water.
• Leveling on uneven ground: Adjustable feet would be a welcome addition for exterior or rough-floor work. It’s easy enough to shim, but built-in micro-adjustment would speed things up.
• Universal mounting: While it’s clearly intended for DeWalt’s 10-inch models (D24000 and D36000), a more universal mounting pattern would broaden its appeal. As it stands, it’s best matched to those saws.

None of these are dealbreakers, but they’re worth noting depending on your typical jobsite conditions and workflow.

Warranty and value

The stand carries a 3-year limited warranty, 1 year of free service, and a 90-day satisfaction guarantee. That’s solid coverage for a piece of support equipment that’s going to live in wet, gritty environments. Considering the build quality and the convenience gains from the height adjustment and folding design, the value proposition is strong—especially if you’re already running a compatible DeWalt saw.

Who it’s for

• Tile setters and remodelers using a D24000 or D36000 who want a sturdy, quick-deploy stand with adjustable working height.
• Pros who break down and set up frequently and need a light, compact stand that won’t clutter the van.
• DIYers stepping up to a full-size wet saw and looking for a safer, more ergonomic alternative to sawhorses.

If your work involves moving a saw across large, open jobsites multiple times a day, you might prefer a wheeled cart-style stand. If you often work on uneven exterior surfaces, plan on carrying shims.

Recommendation

I recommend this DeWalt stand for anyone running a 10-inch DeWalt wet tile saw who values stability, ergonomics, and quick setup in a compact package. It’s sturdy under load, the four height positions genuinely improve comfort and control, and it folds flat without adding bulk to your rig. While the lack of wheels and leveling feet means it’s not the most mobile option on sprawling jobs or rough ground, the overall balance of rigidity, portability, and durability makes it an excellent everyday stand for tile work.
