Anyone have experience with Grizzly power tools (specifically table saws)?

Looking at the G0771 it's about $800 which is pretty cheap for a cabinet table saw. Anyone have experience?

Or would you recommend another cabinet table saw in the $759-$1000 range?

I don't have experience with this specific saw. This seems like a case of you get what you pay for. When it comes to power tools and equipment, never go cheap.

Well, I don't consider $800 cheap for a table saw. But thanks for the insight.

I think they make some solid drill presses

I have a couple of Grizzly tools. A band saw and a small drill press

For the money they are hard to beat in my opinion. There are definitely better tools because of flatter tables or better motors but unless it's being used extremely hard daily it should be fine.
Without looking Ill say you might need a new fence at some point but that is likely all.

Thanks. I've got orders for 5 farmhouse tables so I've got some $ to burn on better tools.

That's a good one. I don't have one but those saws get really good reviews. You have a Planer, their 8" Planer is supposed to be top of the line.

In the past I had a slew of grizzly power tools. I had a tablesaw but not this model. I have to say that each piece of equipment worked great. Look at reviews on line if you can on this model. If not for the price grizzly is usually hard to beat

Make sure you have help/equipment to bring that rascal in your shop. Delivery is by freight truck and that will be a heavy sumbitch by yourself

Oh, I forgot I also have a dust collector that's a Grizzly. It works great as well

I have the GO715 and am very pleased with it. Stock blade is not great so recommend ordering a Diablo or Forrest blade with it right off the back

Grizzly tools imo are best quality for the price. If ur a pro cabinet maker they are probably not for u but for the serious hobby woodworker u can't find a better value. I also have the 2hp dust collector and 1.5hp shaper (1 of 3 I bought from a cabinet shop going out of business)
