I had a DeWalt 788 I bought used that was a good saw….til the motor burned up. No more than I use one now,I bought a PC at Lowes for $180.00(+ -) and it serves my purpose.
In answer to your question,like most things you get what you pay for. No reason to sink $1,500.00 in something you use once a month.
There are several scroll sawers on here, check with them. They will be glad to answer any questions.
