I have a craftsman table saw and it went on fairly easily. My shop is in the garage and I welcomed the space removing a (cheapy) dedicated router table it freed up.
I bought the crafted about 4 months ago and have been pleased with it. I think I'd want to examine it first before spending that amount. I notice there are a couple of reviews on the BB site, one for, one against. The fence doesn't seem to be optional, and has plenty of features - I made my own for a fraction of the price. It has a lot more tracks, but personally I wonder if they weaken the structure and collect dust. The Craftex is bigger, which has its advantages, but probably needs the support of a leg (mine doesn't).
I wouldn't hesitate to buy this setup again. I prefer this setup because the router and plate can be lifted out easily if required without having to reset anything. Mine's 9 x 12, with an aluminum plate, but other sizes can be had. It has a router plate rather than a round hole. It's 15" wide, more than the General and less than the 20" of the Craftex. Like the Craftex, it had the insert hole directly in the top, so removing and reattaching the router was a nuisance. It had to be redrilled to fit the Ridgid I had at the time - no big deal. It worked well, but was quite narrow because designed for a contractor saw. I used to have the General wing that John has. Re: Graftex CX200R Cast Iron Router Table
