Laguna 14/12 vs Rikon 10-326 Bandsaw Options - Help Please!

All,

I know similar questions have come up multiple times on this forum. I have read through a lot of these threads.

However, I am hoping we can limit this thread to a simple vote between the two aforementioned saws.

Woodcraft has the Laguna 14-12 for 10% off - with final price of approximately $1,000
Woodcraft will have the Rikon 10-326 for 15% off in march, resulting in a final price of approximately $850.

That's a $150 difference between the two saws, but I'm not sweating. I am more interested in buying the better saw

Please note these are the ONLY two saws I'm considering. So with all due respect to other brands (Grizzly, Jet, Delta, etc., etc.), I would likely to kindly request fellow forum members to simply vote which between the two aforementioned saws would you choose.

Thanks in advance.

I have the Rikon saw and am happy with it. My buddie has the Laguna and I think he has the better saw
I have the 19" Rikon. After a bit of learning curve it performs well.when the guide bearings started growling I switched to Space Age Ceramin guides. I recommend them. One of my WW buddies has the Laguna. I played with it a bit and I think it's a superior saw to the Rikon , build quality mostly.
