I bought the SawStop after going back and forth over cost and looking at other machines.
The money is spent and the sting is over. The saw is really solid and I enjoy using it. I checked the alignments and everything was dead on out of the crate. First time I didnt have to spend time tuning a tool like that.
I suspect the saw will last many many years.
Whatever you buy just make sure its one you drool over. We love our tools and hate working with junk!
Best of luck,
