I have the 16 which is the 121 with added templates. I am happy with it. I have used it twice.

I have the 4216. I have used it many times and I am satisfied with it. It is easy to set up and is accurate. The only downside is that the spacing is not variable. I recommend that you get the kit. At least, get the box joint template'

i use mine for making drawers exclusively. If you are ok with making the same joints with consistent spacing it's a good jig.
