    I recently bought table saw for about $300, and it has a version of non-branded saw stop built in.

      Do you happen to know the maker? Mine is a DeWalt but it’s one of those small “jobsite” ones that I’ve been kind of using way above its paygrade.

        Skil. I only recently got it, so I can’t speak for its durability; but after I got everything set up, it’s been pretty nice. The 12" blade came pre-installed, and it was already true out of the box. It does have the ability to adjust the blade if it works it way out of plane later on.
        If you’re really relying on a table saw for work, it would definitely be worth stepping up to some contractor grade stuff at a higher budget; but I’m pretty happy with mine so far.
