Hey Ron, I ended up getting the Grizzly G1071.
So far no complaints. Its very powerful, nice and heavy so it don't move around and you can lean into it with your workpiece if you want. This is my third piece of Grizzlys stationary power tools, I also have an old joiner and the G0512 Edge Sander w/ Wrap-Around Table, all are excellent machines.




Description
This sander's big 25" x 25" table makes cabinet doors and other large projects a breeze to edge sand - and the wide variety of interchangeable spindles turn custom work into "child's" play.
