If so or if you have any, I would like to know how you like it.

In the TS world They competitors with Powermatic, have better trunion mount than many. Large table and watch out for those ads that show you how easy it is to runn the cranks. Things get dirty inthe real world.
Their equipment is pricy.

Thanks,

I am looking at wide belts in the 24" to 37" range.

I've heard good things about the Excess series. Not sure about the lighter Pro series. I have their 37" double drum sander, which I paid a bit more for (vs. Woodtek, Grizzly, etc.) to get Baldor motor. At this level, it is pretty standard Far East quality - like tod said, it works, but is not as refined as Euro stuff.
