I am currently looking at three lathes available here in Canada in my
price range and am seeking advice from any and all who have experience
with any of these models.

You will do yourself a good turn by posting this message over at:

rec.crafts.woodturning

as well as here. There are usually a lot of helpful folks hanging
around.
