Sliding compound miter saw - Vision can't build no cabinets!
As someone who owns both a 12 inch sliding and non-sliding miter saw and does a lot of home projects, I recommend getting a 10 inch slider.
The 12 inch sliders are just big and bulky and hard to move. The 12 inch non-sliders will cost you more for blades than the 10 inch ones. Plus, if you check I think some of the 10 inch sliders have a larger cutting capacity than some of the 12 non sliders.
Lastly, you can do rough dado's with a slider (at least mine can).
Something like this is nice:
