Grizzly G0500-Is it worth it?

[Cliff Newton]

I've been given the go ahead by SWMBO to buy this bad boy. I currently have a Griz 6x47" jointer that currently takes up little room. I fear the G0500 will be a monster addition to the 2 car garage shop. Everything in the shop is on wheels so swmbo can park inside. Is the G0500 pretty quiet since it is almost 500 pounds? My current jointer is the model with the sheet metal cabinet and it is pretty loud. Should I go for it?

I have a review on my site by Terry Nielson on the G0500....thumbs up!!

Thanks Jim. I think I'm going to go ahead and pull the trigger.
