I have had a Bosch 4000 for about 5 years and it is presently my only tablesaw. I have a very small shop and this saw has served me well. I devised my own riving knife, and have bought zero clearance inserts from Bosch and Peachtree. The Peachtree inserts are much better. I also have a sled for crosscutting and another for dadoing wide pieces. The saw will handle my 8" dado set up to 3/4 inch but I had to get a new inside washer in order to get a full 3/4 onto the arbor. The fence is pretty decent and the saw has plenty of power to rip 2" oak if you're not in a hurry. I have a Forrest Woodworker II blade that was worth the expense as it will cut anything well. The two big problems are poor dust collection and very short table in front of the blade (which is why I have a crosscut sled).
