I have been scouring the internet looking for reviews on the Jet JJ-8CS. I have found a few reviews here and there but not enough reviews to give me a good idea of what Jet owners think about the JJ-8CS. I have checked the local Jet dealers and none of them carry the 8" as a display unit. I have also heard rumors that the Jet is basically the same thing as one of the Grizzly jointers. I have nothing against Grizzly but if one of their Jointers is the same as the Jet, it does not make a lot of sense to pay the extra for the Jet. There is one key difference though between Jet and Grizzly and that is the 5 year warranty.
Thanks
