   My money is on my DeWalt 735 in the long run, I love it.   The Electronic package on the Sears has me worried.  Simple is good.

   I am with Bruce, love mine as well , definitely worth the up-charge. I won't buy most of Sears stuff anymore, their customer service isn't what it used to be and anything I have bought from them in the last ten years has pretty much sucked, my money down the tube. I had the rigid for three or four years and finally killed it. Good machine for the money but blade changing was tortuous. The three knife dewalt seems to be made by people who actually use tools, imagine that. Even a place to put all the knife screws, the devil or god is in the details, don't want to offend anyone.

   Apparently according to FWW tool review, it tied for best overall with the Dewalt735

   I have read two recent reveiws, FWW being one, and both rated the Craftsman 21759 equal to the DeWalt 735. One rated the Craftsman even higher if you were going to leave it in your shop. The 735 was rated more portable. But, I am suspicious of the Craftsman...it's imported by Colovos? Made by ??? I can get a 735 on eBay for $359 plus shipping of about $50.
