In the market to buy one, but need advice. What should I buy? Rigid gets good reviews as does the Delta. Any help from you all would br appreciated. Am a hobbyist so don't need industrial strength one. thanx for any help/ Need pros and cons .

Last year i purchased a Grizzly Spindle Sander. G0538 for about $150 new. It's not industrial strength but it has been excellent so far for me. It's small so i can stow it away easily and it has surely performed to my standards. I would recommend it. Very handy too,

If you're looking for the benchtop variety I whole heartedly recommend the Ridgid. It's an awesome machine and you get the belt/edge sander too...

I bought the rigid and if needed I'd replace it with an identical one.
Nothing against any others but the rigid meets/exceeds my needs

+1 on the Ridgid. For the home hobbyist it is a super machine.
