Grizzly or Delta??

I am considering getting an 8″ jointer either

Grizzly 0586 or a Delta DJ-20 (substantial price difference) and wondered if anyone has one and how they like it…pros and cons…cut quality. I would also be interested in how you got it into your shop. Can you do it with two people and a dolly (basement shop with door to backyard)?

I've used a DJ-20 and it's no doubt a great jointer. But I've also read alot of positive feedback about the Grizzly. If you're not using it commercially, I'm not sure what you'd gain by spending the extra money on the Delta. Griz also now offers an 8" machine with the parallelogram design like the Delta if you're interested in that feature.
