Hey folks! I hope you're all doing great. I've been eyeing a SawStop table saw but here's the catch— they don't ship to my area. I found two options at local dealers: a 1.75 HP motor priced at $2800 and a 3 HP motor for $4300. Given the steep price difference, I'm leaning towards the 1.75 HP model. However, I'm curious if anyone has experience with this motor and can vouch for its durability over time. Personally, I haven't had much luck with 15 amp 110 motors lasting as long as I'd hope they would in a cabinet saw setup. Any insights?

I actually have the 1.75 HP PCS and it’s been pretty reliable. I got mine wired for 120V but later switched to the 240V conversion kit. It's been running smoothly for three years now without any problems and has enough power for my projects.
