I have the S315WS and love it. (The older version that still came with the 8'6" slider...which requires 19' of throw, end to end) It's an excellent machine and if I'm not mistaken, a little heaver than the SC4 Elite. In reality, I could likely be very happy with the SC4 Elite, but it wasn't an option at the time I was buying (I don't remember why...it was a number of years ago) and I got a smokin' deal on the S315WS as it was right before some changes were going to happen.
