I think they're all the same just different paint color. Home Depot has their spindle sander at $104.

I'll look into them at the beginning of the month. I want to work on a couple spaulted knives.

Had one and sold it to a fellow Woodnetter and have not missed it. I use a drum sander on the drill press if and when I need it. Eliminated an item from the shop that was just taking up room.

My little Wilton brand oss has at least 200 hours on it. Had to open it up and lube the oscillating pulleys once when the original grease dried up. Other than that it's a champ. I think Ryobi made an identical one. Not sure if there's a comparable model being made. Mines the one with the MDF top covered in white laminate.
Edit: just saw the grizzly G0538 looks exactly like my Wilton oss

I bought the Harbor Freight one that looks just like the Wen and only paid $69 on sale
