Did some searching for reviews of the Rigid 14" bandsaw. Not too
promising.

Are they really as bad as the posters are saying or is this just the
people who have been unlucky to get bad units?

Do you really want to take a chance? If I have doubts, I just move on.
There is nothing special about Ridgid that another brand does not offer.
