Grizzly 10" Wet Grinder Kit versus Tormek
#24
The Grizzly is no comparison to Tormek.
The grizzly is a cheap, offshore wannabe.
I got one from someone; the stone was out of round.
Got another from grizz—it still oscillates rather than rotating smoothly.

I have the Grizz. I've had it about 10 years and am happy with it.
The jigs that come with it aren't worth much though.

The bottom line here is the Grizzly copy is not in the same class as the Tormek, however, you can expect that from a machine that is less than 20% of the price of another.  If your expectations are in line with the cost either may work for you. Value is an individual metric with some finding the Tormek worth every penny and more and some will find even the Grizzly and Wen overpriced for the amount they use it.
