Is JET a decent company for making bandsaws, or are they a cheap chinese
knockoff company? Or heck are they a cheap American knockoff company.

I noticed on their webpage that they list themselves as JET Europe, so
presumably they are European. Are they made in Europe or somewhere else?

They're the parent of Powermatic now. As w/ most other manufacturers,
their products are mostly imports if not all. They made their mark as a
Grizzly-type distributor before Griz became big -- a good value, lower
price alternative when most of the import stuff really was pretty trashy.

In most reviews their stuff rates pretty well altho the particular model
of bandsaw reviewed didn't fare so well in the FWW shootout...
