Grizzly G0478 vs Delta 36-725

I have a 1.5 HP delta, I would definately lean towards the Grizzly.

I have had the G0478 for over 6 years and no issues with it. I use a ZCI with a microsplitter. I handle a lot of red and white oak and the power is good. Never had it bog down on a cut. I would recommend thin kerf blades regardless of which saw you choose. The only real negative is the small motor access door. If you ever need to work on the motor or pulleys you are in for a lot of hurt.

Thanks folks.
Knotscott: I agree the price is a little high. The 2 sets of rails, ZC inserts (2) and really clean condition are pluses though. May offer a little less if I can figure out how to get it home from 90 miles away.

I own the Delta - buy the Grizz. The Delta is wonderful but the extra power and one-piece rails will be a nice addition. Pretty hard to beat up that saw, and good CS from Griz if you need it. You won't be using the safety features on that Griz, I can barely convince myself the riving knife is worth it on the Delta - they've done it so well that it's very little inconvenience for a big benefit. The cast wings are also a nice touch on the Griz, although I'm finding more and more that that's an overrated feature. My steel wings haven't moved once and I've clunked them pretty good - seems like you only gain cosmetics and weight.

Thanks for your comments. Unfortunately, and like usual, the Grizz sold quickly before I was able to go see it. Regarding weight, I'm a little put off by a 400 pound saw like the Grizzly, since I expect to move it around in my garage when needed. That is one advantage of the Delta IMO.
