Yup, stackables are generally considered to be the better quality blade.
Wobbles dont cut the sides of the dado exactly square to the bottom and
the
bottom will have a very subtle arc.

Good luck,

You're right about the stacked dado blades being the better quality,
and the wobble cutters producing a concave bottom. Wrong about the
sides of the cut, though - even the wobble blades give cuts with
parallel sides that are square to the bottom.

You're right about wobble dado's making cuts with parallel sides but the
sides are NOT square to the bottoms. Because the bottoms are not flat the
angle at which the bottoms intersect the sides is not 90 degrees.
