I would like to put my bandsaw (Rikon 10-325) on a base so I can move it away from the wall when I want to use it. Here are 3 I am considering:

Has anyone used any of these or others? Suggestions? Thanks.

I have mine on a base that works similarly to the third one, from Performance. It is a 3-wheeler, but instead of the pull handle it has a foot lever to raise and lower the third wheel. I don't remember where I got it--maybe from Woodcraft. I actually like that Performance one better than mine because of the handle to pull the saw around. Just be careful of the balance when moving the saw.

I have mine on a JET base. Think I paid $100.

I'd like to try the one you show that Rikon makes. The only disadvantage I see there is that the tow bar is only useful for that one tool - a bummer because it takes up a wee bit of extra space in my small shop.

I used your second choice.
