: If I had to do it over again I'd either not buy one or spend the $500 it

: enough power to do the job and sometime not quite enough power. It gets
: very hot and I'm sure it's going to burn out soon.

I opted for the next step up above the Versathingy from Delta and have been happy with it. It has plenty of power for pushing a cedar board and does just fine with heavier/hard stuff. Like I've said before, I consider it a luxury item, but I'm happy to have it.
