I was also trying to decide between these two and a "brand new, made one cut" 14/12 popped up on Craigslist last weekend for $700.
That made the decision a little easier! It was actually brand new and is my shop now
So far I'm really impressed with it. I went ahead and converted it to 240v as I didn't have a dedicated 120v circuit where I wanted it. I've resawn several logs and cut a 20" circle out of 3/4" oak, so far it's been flawless after a careful setup
