Which method of making Frame and Panel "Shaker" style doors is more
error free and easier for a semi-newbie? (Router or table saw)

The cabinet doors will have a veneer panel. The stiles and rails can
be cut with either a (a) tongue and groove router bit set or (b) be
done on the table saw with use of a tenoning jig and dado.

About 20-25 doors to make.

I ask as I am choosing which equiptment to buy...(already have a good
table saw, but may need to replace my Craftsman crap router). Both
options seem to be about the same price...

I have made 2 or 3 hundred in the last 5 or so years.. My doors have a 1/4"
thick center bead board panel.

I make 1/2" deep groove on the rails and styles to fit the panel, on the
TS. Then I cut the tenons with the router table to fit those groves.
