Grizzly Industrial - Grizzly G0715P Cabinet Saw
You get a lot of saw for well under $1,000.

With the Grizzly you get a lot of saw for well under $1,000. Powered by a 2-hp motor, the G0715P has plenty of muscle and did very well in the ripping test. (It comes wired for 220 volts, but can be rewired for 110.) The T-square style fence is stout and locked down square with no deflection. Even though there is no blade shroud, dust collection was still quite good, and a big hinged door over the motor makes it easy to vacuum out any dust that falls to the bottom of the cabinet.

The release mechanism for the riving knife and blade guard was easily the most convenient in the test. You don’t have to remove the throat plate to switch between the knife and guard. Just slide a thumbwheel back and to the side, and the riving knife is released. Slide in the guard, push the thumbwheel to the side and forward, and it locks the knife into place. Wonderful! The blade guard is good, with a leaf on each side of the blade. The leaves pivot up as wood is fed under them, and rise independently so that you can raise just one for thin rips. The arbor lock worked well and was easy to access, making single-wrench blade changes convenient. A minor downside is that the throat plate is very thin, which complicates making a zero-clearance insert for it.
